Curious to hear about what prompts power this.

I would 100% vote for you!

That's totally fair feedback. Particularly optionality having been removed from proto2 to proto3 is confusing.

The default transport (gRPC) certainly is, but HTTP RPC translation/gateways are easily generated.

Gotcha. I think this might be where Protobuf falls short because you have to "source" the tooling for all its different outputs, but support for OpenAPI 3.0 spec generation has existed for over a year.

What does this do that Protobuf doesn't?

Amazon is great at a lot of things, but AI and Machine Learning aren't it. From what I saw when I worked there, they don't have the talent to produce their own models (which is, I think, what we all expected to see), but the surprising thing is that they haven't partnered yet.

I lived in Ottawa at the time these protests were going on. These people weren’t there to protest. They were there to antagonize.

There's an HN post that takes first place on my bookmarks bar, which is an Ask HN about the best paper people read in 2020 [^1]. Every once in a while I'll open it and browse through a ton of amazing papers and research and try to learn something new. Hasn't let me down yet.

Normal and acceptable are two very different things. Another post from earlier mentioned other shady practices from them, so I wanted to bring this up too.

I got tired of getting pings from Netflix, so I finally opened the app and tried looking for the setting to disable them. Apparently they opt you in to these by default, and the only way to disable them, according to the help article, is through the OS’ settings directly.

They’re super hard to find in NA, I think. Love their products tho.
