Define failure?

So he had his hands on the wheel and took no action for 6 seconds while driving straight to the barrier. Doesn't make it look any better for the driver TBH.

I will see your 50 MPH catch and raise you 100: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JX8EQXMtX8w

While OBJ's was impressive, I have seen even more crazy catches in Cricket and Baseball!

No offence :P but we are paying > US$1000

Funny thing. We in India pay regularly close to $1000 (oh the irony there) for a regular iPhone 7 - and they sell a lot here.

We took ur jobs????

What???? I doubt this is true. Smoking has never been allowed in numerous Air India flights I have taken.

I get symmetric 200/200 for about $70/month in Bangalore, India. It's just a dumb pipe though (no included TV/phone, though I could also go for those).

At my third world home, I get a 125 Mbps fiber to home connection for around USD 74 per month.

I checked the benchmark code out. I have asked the author for more information. I am not sure if all the tests were limited to using only 1 core during the run. GOMAXPROCS=1 severely limits the Go version.

1 Go worker process can utilise all the cores in the server. I just want to get that clarified.

From a "dump-down" developer, why the throw away though? Proudly wear your opinion dude, you are entitled to it!

If only Go was useful in building closed source products. Google must not have gotten the memo about Rust yet.

But looks like there are some bits of Go in there somewhere... https://github.com/tobi?utf8=%E2%9C%93&tab=repositories&q=go...

They had to rollback the update:

> Unfortunately, we needed to roll back the 1.7 release of VS Code. One of the great new features in 1.7 is the automatic acquisition of typing files when writing JavaScript and TypeScript. These typings files drive the IntelliSense (code completions) experience in the tool. The feature was so great that we started to overload the npmjs.org service. The right thing to do in the short term was to revert the release. If you had already upgraded to 1.7 you would have been prompted to install another update and you should now be at 1.6.1 again. We apologize for this inconvenience and we're working hard to make both short and long term fixes to bring you a great editing experience in VS Code.

We were bit by the `closeConnIfStillIdle` bug as we didn't expect the stdlib to panic like that (also something you cannot recover from, as it happens in a goroutine which you didn't create.)

Does it bother you enough to post a message here?

It's not like someone submitted it to the front page of HN? People voted it for it to come up here... and that itself should be reason enough.

Why oh why limit it from being available in countries like India? You want users, we got users. Can never comprehend behind a geo wall for things like this (and can totally understand why Netflix wasn't earlier).

PS: I wonder how much hello.com cost, and how did he have control over the orkut.com domain?

The article is a year old. Someone add (2014) to the title

It single handedly allowed us to build what we did! We tried going to AWS once, and almost got burned with the number of choices available and number of decisions to make.

We visited France/Paris for our marriage anniversary back in June; and the city left a lasting impression on for over the course of 4 days.

All I can say is; don't change your fundamentals. Then they have won. It's just a larger version of your bitcoin demanding DDOS bandits. Once you give in, humanity will fail.

I am more worried about the innocent people who are going to suffer because of this.

Yes. I am thankful: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jallianwala_Bagh_massacre

Yep. It does; but then again my entire static binary (no dependency on libc even) is around 10 MB in size...

I love being able to pull down a docker container that fast!

Yes. Its always good to read the D success stories.

Excited to see what this competition will do to Apple. Expect to see something radical in the MBP line now.

Gets the job done!

Or possibly, stats showed that a significant percentage of users don't even come close to filling up the 16 GB.

Yep. 1.5s 12 MP videos (0.75s before and after) as "live photos".

LMGTFY "go game algorithm"

I always wondered why?

Thats a mighty tasteless thing to say. I am guessing you are on the "we should not be exploring space" camp?
