Google layoffs hit Flutter team | Hacker News
Good to see a $2T market cap company doesn't have enough revenue to retrain and reassign these employees. I'd hate to think what the shareholders would have to endure had they not done layoffs. Being laid off is terrible and I don't want to minimise the suffering it's causing for those involved.However Google had 55,000 more employees in 2022 than it did in 2020, an increase of around 33%. It seem

Back at my old job in ~2016, we built a cheap homegrown data warehouse via Postgres, SQLite and Lambda.Basically, it worked like this: - All of our data lived in compressed SQLite DBs on S3. - Upon receiving a query, Postgres would use a custom foreign data wrapper we built. - This FDW would forward the query to a web service. - This web service would start one lambda per SQLite file. Each lambda
Google Docs will now use canvas based rendering | Hacker News
Speaking as one of the original three authors of Google Docs (Writely), but zero involvement in this project (I left Google in 2010): I'm seeing a lot of comments asking how JavaScript-on-Canvas could possibly outperform the highly optimized native code built into the browser engines. It's been a long time since I've really been involved in browser coding, but having written both Writely and, fart
Please make your products work with URLs | Hacker News
I hate smart TVs with a burning passion. They accomplish literally the bare minimum to keep people happy and sometimes not even that.Samsung’s Tizen OS is the most genuinely frustrating experience I’ve had with a consumer device outside of printing. Advertisements on my home screen that can’t be disabled, dubious privacy, bugs that require me to reboot my TV, and of course security so bad that the

Excel: Error when CSV file starts with “I” and “D” | Hacker News
Maybe my bug? I wrote most of the original Excel text-based file import code in 1984 (including the SLYK format, which was the main way we migrated files from Multiplan to Excel). Hi mckoss, awesome to hear one of the main Excel architects is here on HN!Any interesting stories to share? I think we'd all be interested. Mind if I ask a question directly related to one of my comments a few days ago?
JSX - a faster, safer, easier alternative to JavaScript | Hacker News
> (...) even the optimized JavaScript libraries like Box2D becomes faster when ported to JSX.Box2D is a C++ library that has been ported to ActionScript and then, from ActionScript, converted to JavaScript - not by hand, but by a bunch of scripts[1].
