fhoffa·السنة الماضية·discussI like this. Using Twilio and other similar tools to send texts has become too hard lately - especially given all the verifications you need to go through.Thanks for sharing!
fhoffa·قبل سنتين·discussHi, Felipe at Snowflake here.Here is the latest from Snowflake on this issue: https://community.snowflake.com/s/question/0D5VI00000Emyl00A...We'll keep updating that URL with any further news.
fhoffa·قبل 3 سنوات·discussYou think we are disagreeing, meanwhile I just love how much I've learned (and confirmed) thanks to your replies. Thanks for sharing!
fhoffa·قبل 3 سنوات·discussThis is awesome, thanks for all the background info. Now let me give you an example of App Engine deprecating stuff:- In 2012 App Engine deprecated the "Conversion API".- They notified this deprecation in August 2012, and they told users it would stop working only 3 months afterwards.- You were affected by this deprecation.- You created an alternative to it, that worked on Heroku.Source: https://groups.google.com/g/google-appengine/c/-JJccGx5RRk/m...Did I get this right?You are awesome. We are just choosing to remember the past with different colored glasses.
fhoffa·قبل 3 سنوات·discussWait, you just said in a separate comment that you migrated away from App Engine.You also just said that you used it very effectively back when it was a different thing.I think we agree in many more ways than we disagree.Source: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38020604
fhoffa·قبل 3 سنوات·discussHave you actually been using it for 15 years?My guess is not, or you would have a different opinion. But that's just a guess
fhoffa·قبل 3 سنوات·discussAppEngine today is wildly different to the App Engine I fell in love with 15 years ago.Since you're checking notes, please check out all the AE service deprecation notes.Disclosure: I worked for Google for ~10 years, and I fought internally many of those deprecation decisions. I did not succeed.
fhoffa·قبل 3 سنوات·discussFWIW, I now analyze the Stack Overflow dumps on Snowflakehttps://medium.com/snowflake/how-to-load-the-stack-overflow-...
fhoffa·قبل 3 سنوات·discussLooking at that source, there's a pretty straightforward explanation of where the page views come from.- Last month, Stack Overflow had ~142,575,642 visits.- Last month, Google gave 127,896,508 visits to Stack Overflow- Last month, Bing gave 7,491,274 visits to Stack OverflowYou could say that the Stack Overflow # of pageviews depends mainly on:- How often people are searching Google/Bing for answer.- How often Google/Bing rank Stack Overflow high enough for people to click into it.
