This is pretty cool. I usually had to add a little more context to get the correct result though. It would be nice to see the top ten results, maybe with a relevance score.
It would also be great if I could pipe in the search and bypass confirmation, e.g:
I found this odd as well, especially given how competing services (e.g. SoftLayer) so often cite the performance of dedicated servers as their competitive advantage over AWS.
> It is not expected that the performance of compiled applications will ever rival 'v8'. JavaScript is an awful language for static compilation - it almost seems designed to foil any attempts at optimization, and so a JIT will always have a significant performance advantage.
For the compiler un-initiated such as myself, is there a simplified explanation for why static compilation is inferior to JIT for languages like javascript?
These are all beautiful illustrations, but they don't feel iconic to me. Granted, there is a spectrum when it comes to detail, but isn't the purpose of an icon to distill an idea to its visual essence?
"However, we continued our attempts at possibly making our product work but by mid-February, we realized that we were grinding through our days. Grinding is okay and sometimes necessary for a startup, but it was during this time that I realized I was not passionate about ours."
Five months in, grinding is pretty much the job. Everybody’s passion wanes when faced with (potentially) years of hard work. It’s legit to decide you don’t want that for yourself, but it’s sad to see someone abandon a viable funded business.
As an aside, I dislike the criticism “doing a startup for the sake of a startup.” It implies that someone needs a special calling, and provides an easy out in the absence of one. “Starting a business thinking it looks easy,” might be closer to the truth.
Frameworks are great for startups. Before market fit, they make it easy to quickly build (and tear down) functionality. Afterwards, they make it easy to integrate new members into your team. At either stage, you don't want to spend your time reinventing the wheel or teaching the intricacies of your bespoke wheel to someone else.
This is great news for server-side tex rendering. Valiant efforts on behalf of projects like svgtex (https://github.com/agrbin/svgtex) notwithstanding, MathJax is abysmal for pre-rendering content.
It would also be great if I could pipe in the search and bypass confirmation, e.g:
