Most of that list is done in session.

This was just everyone leaving on a Friday, sort of a work day, sort of not.

Same with monetary amounts.

Movies in 1950s: "For this heist you will receive a fantastical sum of $100,000."

Nowadays: "$100,000 is a mediocre downpayment in the suburbs."

What is the out of session time for?

The other thing it does is provided confidence against vendor lock-in.

I know that if I buy PostHog, and they go out of business or increase their prices, etc. I have an out.

PostHog has always been open source.

Please update title accordingly.

"How does this affect downstream tools"

> It’s worth calling out that workflows that use Vue, MDX, Astro, Svelte, and others will likely not yet be able to leverage TypeScript 7. Similarly, specialized type-checking within templates like Angular will also likely not use TypeScript 7. This is mainly because TypeScript 7 does not yet expose a stable programmatic API, and so tools (such as Volar) which embed TypeScript into their own compilers and language services can only currently rely on TypeScript 6.0. We expect this to be a point-in-time issue, as we are committed to providing a solution here. We will be actively working with the maintainers of these projects to ensure TypeScript 7 supports these workflows.

This downplays the incredible things that can be done with it.

There's a lot of noise, yes. How long has the web existed? And yet we're still figuring out how to optimize (HTTP/3).

Disregard the signal at your own expense.

It's not necessarily less sound.

But it is a suggestion.

Human authors only write what they think is valuable. AI content lacks that signal.

Ah, who can forget the manager-subsidiary combo.

They definitely affect behavior.

Legal compliance is a huge part of modern enterprises precisely because of cases like this. Ultimately, everything has a risk/reward analysis, but it factors in heavily.

tl;dr Google required Android phone manufactures to use Google Search and Chrome.

Ironically, Apple uses Safari on 100% of their phones.

Brand.

"OCI container" doesn't have same ring, unfortunately.

And most Podman things are just clones of Docker, e.g. Containerfile. In a clone situation, the original brand will always have the staying power.

Meteoroid then.

Asteroids and meteoroids are the same, except for where they are positions.

Mothers and women are the same, except for their relationships to others.

It can be darker colors too.

Eh, that doesn't make sense.

What's a meteor?

The #1 problem of most clean code, or microservices, or other architectural patterns is taking a correct observation to a logical extreme.

Decomposition is good. Too much decomposition recreates complexity in the interactions.

Immutability is good. Immutability everywhere creates gymnastics with more mental load.

Extensibility is good. Extensible-everything is reduces usability.

Program isolation is good. Too much isolation melts your laptop into a Docker-shaped puddle.

Having the restraint to not apply your pet idea to everything under the sun is the mark of a mature programmer and indeed a mature person.

Well it depends whether you parsing binary (byte stream) or text (character stream).

In practice, lots of text formats (JSON, XML) embed or hint the character encoding in the format.
