Great post.

In some scenarios veth is being replaced with netkit for a similar reason. Does this impact how you're going to manage this?

The cat is same for me. If it could pick the nightly dead rodent so I don't have to explain murder to the kids every day that would be great.

But ultimately what machine/device could show something? I appreciate not one reading could do this and it would have to be repeatable.

Yea agree. It's always something. Rays from the sun, a phone mast or something else. But what signals could be sent that are provable? Even if a ghost told you where to find the money. No one would believe you.

That's a great comic, and that's where I sit.

Appreciate the comment, but what would (B) involve?

As I see it, it's all EMF (could be picked up from anywhere), no mass spectrometers, no actual science.

Agree. Was surprised how well the phone pulled the colour out.

Can’t find my DSLR unfortunately otherwise it’d be on the tripod.

Had to wake the 6 year old for him to see this, once in a life time type of thing

I live in rural very northern England. It’s incredible, clear with the naked eye. iPhone 14 camera with 3s exposure is out of this world (pun intended, but misleading)

I personally put some logic in the database especially when I’m expressing constraints. If it’s there it means another engineer can’t go directly to the database to bypass these constraints. (By logic, I’m meaning for example a transaction can only transition between states if it’s in a required state).

When it comes to debugging, versioning, deployment all these live alongside the code and are managed via migrations. Testing it is done as an integration test with the rest of the system.

It helps that we don’t use an ORM and deal with SQL everywhere.

Have a hard copy on my bedside table. It’s exceptionally fun to read (nerdy, I know). Also have Game Programming Patterns both are great books by the same author

This is one the most amazing articles on the internet! I find I become more interested in how it’s put together than the actual content, even though the article is the content. It blows my mind and should set a standard for how technical concepts should be delivered.
