oznog··on Google's new pipe syntax in SQL
SQL replacements is like not understanding the magnitude of the success of something so old.

SQL is fine.

SQL has been the state of the art for db queries for 40 years.

And it will continue to be when we all retire.

oznog··on Meta used monolithic architecture to ship Threads in only five months
Can anyone tell any precedent of microservices and all this tipical complexity shipping something in 5 months?
oznog··on Meta used monolithic architecture to ship Threads in only five months
Modulith is the way.

Simply put, with microservices and all the typical contemporary complexity you can't deliver a shit in 5 months.

oznog··on ASML EUV lithography machine could keep Moore’s Law on track
Moore's Law is not engineering, it's economics.

The limits of physics can be surpassed with parallelization.

Moore's law is a reflection of the private and business market's desire/need for ever greater efficiency.

There is no limit.

oznog··on Show HN: Magic Happens – let ChatGPT manage your Kubernetes cluster
When you think that: Complexity is the ultimate sophistication. jajajajjajaja
oznog··on Ask HN: What's your favorite illustration in computer science?
Bitcoin Hashmap https://nakamoto.observer/hashmap
oznog··on Apple Music deletes your original songs and replaces them with DRM'd versions
> your original songs

Meec. Not yours.

oznog··on Ask HN: Has anyone here turned around their life in their 40s?
> I know the best of my life is behind me.

Wrong Mindset. The best is yet to come.

oznog··on Ask HN: Advice that changed your life?
Do different things.
oznog··on Please don't be spooky
People are responsable of their anxiety. Not the others.

Fuck this bullshit.

oznog··on Please don't be spooky
If you are so weak you cannot pretend to influence and change the behavior of others.

So, this debate is absolutely ridiculous and stupid.

And this shit represents the pinnacle of a generation so fragile and incompetent that it will lead to "worse times".

oznog··on GraphQL kinda sucks
> The quality of posts and comments here used to be a lot higher but it's slowly turning into a [..]

You can go on with your GraphQL, Kubernetes, gigantic frameworks, and pages with 3MB of JS if you want.

And let's see what stands the test of time.

oznog··on GraphQL kinda sucks
It's another postmodern web development fuck-up.

I saw it coming for miles and evaded it.

Your complexity is my competitive advantage. Please continue to be followers of any new shit.

oznog··on I still love PHP and JavaScript
Garbage can be written in any language.
oznog··on Tell HN: I DDoSed myself using CloudFront and Lambda Edge and got a $4.5k bill
In 2010 I served a peak a million users per hour with an $80 dedicated server managed at my pleasure with Plesk and my PHP framework.

I can respond up to 20k requests per second.

Scaling is for worldwide TOP 250 webs or webs designed according to the stupid contemporary fashions.

oznog··on Ask HN: If Kubernetes is the solution, why are there so many DevOps jobs?
Clouds have multiple conflicts of interest in favor of:

1. Dethroning sysadmins introducing devops in the middle ("devs" capable of deploying in the cloud but unable to control the OS).

2. Increase CPU and other resource consumption (promoting heavy frameworks, unable to pass the Doherty threshold in 2022).

For clouds, increasing complexity and costs almost always expands the business.

oznog··on Billing systems are a nightmare for engineers
It's missing when you find out that business people don't know how the business must be executed with total precision.
oznog··on Ask HN: Have we screwed ourselves as software engineers?
You have screwed yourselves.

I'm still doing my projects with LAMP technology. With my own framework with a 150 lines kernel, routed with FS, looking for the maximum simplicity as principle number one.

Postmodern web development lost the Doherty threshold.

I measure my page load in tenths of a millisecond. Average page generated in 1-9 milliseconds, including the tipical 2-6 simple SQL local queries.

Your complexity is my competitive advantage.

oznog··on Ask HN: I'm interested in so many disciplines, but what can I do with that?
Study economics. Starting with Mises Human Action.
