I suspect if the IRGC accidentally blew up a school next to a military base in Oklahoma, they would find it in them to condemn those who made such an innocent mistake.
That's all speculation. What we know is that the US agressed Iran without provocation and in the midst of negotiations and started by blowing up a school and not owning up to it. And now they have threatened multiple times with destroying the civilian energy infrastructure, which is a war crime.
Reading the article, I didn’t see this answered: why not scale to more nodes if your workload is CPU bound? Spin off 1 cpu and a few gb of ram container and scale that as wide as you need?
e.g., this certainly helps when the event loop is blocked, but so could FFI calls to another language for the CPU bound work. I’d only reach for a new Node thread if these didn’t pan out, because there’s usually a LOT that goes into spinning up a new node process in a container (isolating the data, making sure any bundlers and transpilers are working, making sure the worker doesn’t pull in all the app code, etc.).
Side car processes aren’t free, either. Now your processes are contending for the same pool of resources and can’t share anything, which IME means more likelihood of memory issues, esp if there isn’t anything limiting the workers your app can spawn.
Still, good article! Love seeing the ways people tackle CPU bound work loads in an otherwise I/O bound Node app.
True! Although in a lot of Node you DO have a compile chain (typescript) you need to account for. There’s a transactional cost there to get these working well, and only sharing the code it needs. These days it’s much smaller than it used to be, though, so worker functions are seeing more use.
I make my comment to note tho that in many envs it’s easier to scale out than account for all the extra complications of multiple processes in a single container.
It was. In hindsight it signaled the beginning of the mass weaponization of the internet via social media. It also was NOT grassroots lol. It was very specifically and intentionally enflamed and groomed and funded by people like Steve Bannon and his good buddy Jeffrey Epstein. It wouldn’t have such a big Wikipedia article without them.
Are you suggesting that academia and all of the other actual places people who learn and know stuff for a living being full of leftists is some conspiracy against you and the right wing?
Touch grass, my dude. These are the thoughts of someone who spends too much time on X.
The fact that the elite and knowledge workers in this country are generally more left-leaning is pretty evident. The right wingers in these ranks make up a distinctive subgroup. These are the thoughts of pretty much everyone everywhere in the country and this becomes apparent if you ask randoms on the street, or you have attended college lectures, or have used a dictionary, or have read wikipedia talk pages, or have compared news sources.
Being a welder or a farmer or a carpenter requires "learning and knowing stuff". These right-wing associated jobs just don't produce knowledge for other people as an end product. That is what makes knowledge work an elite position; not everyone has the luxury of doing knowledge work.
I take issue with your implication that we should all bow down to knowledge workers because they know better. The knowledge workers are the issue here. They are the subject of discussion. This is like when the police investigate themselves and find no wrongdoing.
If we found that the population of professional athletes became dominated by a certain cultural ingroup, and eventually we failed to bring home gold medals at the olympics, we might be correct to question the state of our meritocracy wrt athleticism. Regardless of what people who "improve and use their bodies for a living" think.
The US is losing intellectually and technologically to countries like China. I call into question the general legitimacy of our academic and journalistic institutions.

China has tons of green energy, high speed rail and frequently extols the virtues of socialism.
Bro, I sympathize a little bit but looking to illiterates who hate green energy is not the solution. We could probably agree that in China, engineers and scientists are more listened to but the solution for America is not "less reading".
I think some displays allow fast enough updates for that. But the early versions of the Divoom didn't have enough docs and/or had broken firmware and wouldn't show any custom gifs I sent it. But it's been working great for me for a few years now as a wall clock/weather display.
Posted this because I didn't see it, just now getting back (toddler).
I started messing with this yesterday and was able to get a fully functional refactor engine (complete with code review, running tests, building TS, etc.) going in less than a day.
We were looking for a tool to bake into our developer tooling that supports things like this, and this GenAIScript project has been perfect so far. Definitely doesn't seem quite ready to embed this into customer-facing stuff, but I'm finding it tremendously helpful for LLM-powered tooling!
