Let's take the toaster out of context here and then if that's just a "product" and the brands/governments want you to purchase it frequently that's why.

It's called GDS Transport[0] and it's custom version of New Transport (for digital use) that's based on the original Transport font designed in the 1950s.

I would say before you get a takedown request such platform is infested with malware and e.g. Google blocks the website so any attempt to visit it results in big red warning.

Speaking from experience, I had similar idea for hosting static sites albeit without the ssh model around it.

Time to finish the day anyway! (it's 5:36pm UK time).

It has cheap(er) resources to be able to employ lots of people to work on tuning a large LLM.

Hypothetically thinking only.

You end up paying more in the latter instance.

Ugh. Terrible tactics. Good thing I removed my email/phone from CV upon uploading it to them.

I'm currently looking for contract work around Python/Elixir web-based projects (hire me anyone?), so I thought I will give TopTal a try after reading the article.

I put good effort into the application process - e.g. by ensuring my answers are exactly what they're looking for (the questions weren't technical so far). I then uploaded my up-to-date CV among other things they asked, and I selected my availability to "full time".... only to learn that I was put on some sort of waitlist - "[..] we encourage you to reapply after March 2, 2024."

I think I'll pass on TopTal. The could tell me way before I applied their network has reached its capacity (if?). Or is that he "long selection process" the OP refers to in the article?

You forgot to also say Rust is faster.. if all languages were very similar there's not much point in having those.

And? Comparing apples and oranges?

I'm running seven Elixir/Phoenix apps (one of these is umbrella with 12 apps) on shared CPU cheap VPS with 1gb memory. I actually ran out of disk space recently than anything else so far.

You commit the sqlite dump file(?) to git and have the history...

I dunno but there are folks who would put anything in git. I work with someone who manages to exceed disk space of company's Gitlab instance by git adding everything. The disk is full again once a month.

Especially when they specified a radius in km(!).

There's Hypercorn too.

That's the exact reason I mostly stopped developing using Django and decided to learn Elixir. I hate JS and try to use as little as possible on my projects, and LiveView is a god send. Also, the neat integration with Tailwind CSS is out of the box in Phoenix.

Having dealt with HMRC myself in topics from auth letters to paying vat every quarter... I'm not sure they exist*

* They probably do exist, as I got hold of someone on their helpline after 4 weeks of trying. That I got something else than I enquired about is another matter.

in 2021[1] a Supreme Court ruled that their drivers are employees (and not self-employed people), so I suspect the invoice shall be coming from the company. Perhaps that's also why HMRC is pursuing the VAT for the past year or two.

Or self order from that big e-commerce that does tax avoidance. You're missing out.

That's why we have timezones, so that not all humanity is asleep at the same time.

There are many parts of the world though.

The company behind this project no longer exists.

I know as I worked there a decade ago :-)

It's OSS - send a PR for "recent version of Django", someone may even merge into upstream.

Nothing personal but I hate blog posts without a date of publication of said post.

I respect The Guardian but sometimes they beat too much of the leftist/socialist agenda (everything should be free for everyone).

Nothing beats Englishman being woken up at 4am by a group of elderly German tourists singing their favourite worship songs.

Apart from that airports are good for overnight stay.

Oh cheers! I read The Lean Startup and due to my leaky memory I remember nothing! But it's as you say: 200 pages to tell "iterate more often on product updates". Hell yeah.

This must be the biggest-paddings-between-blocks website ever. At least for mobile.

Improved code readability. The pipe operator was a game changer for me even after 20 years of programming (I know I was probably touching wrong things).

Readability isn't the best. Also what you present here is method chaining and not functional pipes.

Yes but while adding files to .gitignore will not send these to AI using your tool, it will break a project that uses your tool. Hence the idea of a separate ignore file to git, but with similar behaviour to gitignore.
