A screenshot of a form on the Brooklyn Public Library website with the text: Request to Purchase Form Status message BPL has limited staff available to process Request to Purchase form submissions. To keep the volume of requests at a manageable level, the Request to Purchase form closes after receiving 50 total submissions in a calendar month. The form will reopen on the first of next month.
His Big Mandate went something along these lines: All teams will henceforth expose their data and functionality through service interfaces. Teams must communicate with each other through these interfaces. There will be no other form of interprocess communication allowed: no direct linking, no direct reads of another team's data store, no shared-memory model, no back-doors whatsoever. The only communication allowed is via service interface calls over the network. It doesn't matter what technology they use. HTTP, Corba, Pubsub, custom protocols -- doesn't matter. Bezos doesn't care. All service interfaces, without exception, must be designed from the ground up to be externalizable. That is to say, the team must plan and design to be able to expose the interface to developers in the outside world. No exceptions.
A top down view of a desk, there's a trackpad between two halves of a split keyboard. The left one has an iron block in front of it, the right a wooden block. There are random other items on the desk, and a coiled cable between the two halves of the keyboard.

A picture from the blurhms 2019 fw collection of a man with a buzz cut in an oversized gray sweater and baggy woolen pants in a light plaid pattern and a pleat with button closures on the waistband. On top is a screenshot of a comment from reddit saying "These fits are objectively unflattering... 3- or 4 years from now, everyone will look back at these pictures and cringe."
The answer is record-replay: On the client side, we execute the callback once, passing in a special placeholder value. The parameter behaves like an RPC promise. However, the callback is required to be synchronous, so it cannot actually await this promise. The only thing it can do is use promise pipelining to make pipelined calls. These calls are intercepted by the implementation and recorded as instructions, which can then be sent to the server, where they can be replayed as needed.

Horned oak galls are formed under the direction of the gall-wasp, Callirhytis cornigera (Family Cynipidae). The vast majority of the insect and mite galls found on oaks cause little to no harm to the overall health of their host trees. However, these galls are an exception. Vascular tissue becomes disorganized within the gall structure which disrupts vascular flow. The portion of the stem beyond the gall is often starved of water and dies. This doesn't kill trees, but canopy dieback may be so severe you wish the tree would die.

By contrast, in 2007, it took weeks or months, money upfront, and a fair amount of learning to set up a decently functional, non-ugly WordPress site. And years to fine tune it. Now, 14 years later, it is somewhat easier (you no longer have to muck around doing unix-shell labor or keeping plugins painfully updated), but not by much. You still have to think hard about design, information architecture, typography (ugh!), distribution etc. Here’s a difficulty scale: 100: cgi-bin Perl e-zine circa 1999 85: earliest blogs, with manual RSS wrangling, circa 2002 70: WordPress, Google Reader/Feedburner era, circa 2007 60: Hosted mature WordPress, with theme frameworks, circal 2014 50: WordPress, including monetization plumbing circa 2020 40: Patreon-based multimedia creator stack setup, circa 2018 35: Static websites today, with minimal template editing 15: Substack 8: My guess of where the superconducting baseline will be once Twitter integrates Revue, Spaces etc. properly, circa 2022
The problem with this last point is that most platforms are defined by their medium: YouTube for video, Spotify for audio, Substack for text, etc. Sure, they are branching out — YouTube music, video podcasts on Spotify, and Substack supports both podcasts and video — but as a creator I would rather have my content where my subscribers prefer to consume it (i.e. if I were to launch video I would like it to be on YouTube). In other words, while platforms start with their medium and sometimes branch out, I as a creator want to start with a direct connection to my subscribers and enable them to access my content wherever it makes the most sense (this is the genesis of the Passport name: you ought to be able to carry a credential with you to other places that gives you special privileges).
Product description from link: A raw cut Injected Linen boxford experiment [#512]. Injected Linen is warp knit, which means it raw cuts far better than classic woven shirt fabrics. By leaving all edges raw cut rather than folding them back we can create a flatter laying shirt, which in turn creates a dynamic tension with exposed raw edges of the fabric. A button-up study in contrasts if you will.

A screenshot of text from the Wikipedia article for the Google Wave Federation Protocol: A wave provider operates a wave service on one or more networked servers. The central pieces of the wave service is the wave store, which stores wavelet operations, and the wave server, which resolves wavelet operations by operational transformation and writes and reads wavelet operations to and from the wave store. Typically, the wave service serves waves to users of the wave provider which connect to the wave service frontend. For the purpose of federation, the wave service shares waves with participants from other providers by communicating with these wave provider's servers. Copies of wavelets are distributed to all wave providers that have participants in a given wavelet. Copies of a wavelet at a particular provider can either be local or remote. We use the term to refer to these two types of wavelet copies (in both cases, we are referring to the wavelet copy, and not the wavelet). A wave view can contain both local and remote wavelet copies simultaneously.[4][5]

Our self-host dream does involve handling the same 31M user write load as Bluesky's, but I think this is where the it's expensive critique gets wires crossed: Bluesky's read load is what's actually expensive. I have a billion links on a happy raspberry pi.

A e-commerce store picture of a black shirt with two very large chest pockets and a stand collar. It's kinda wrinkly, and the buttons are hidden.
An open notebook on a wooden surface showing a handwritten title page that reads "A Manifest of Good Work Begun by Jared Pereira Sept 2024 -". A finger is visible at the bottom of the image, holding the page open.
A close-up of a sheet of graph paper with handwritten text. The paper shows several variations of a phrase, each on a new line: "My book of Good Work A record of good Work A record of Good Works Attempted A record of good works entered into A manifest of good works begun" The bottom of the image shows part of a black pen and a ruler. The paper is on a light brown surface, likely a desk or table.
A photo of a page with this text: The hour is striking so close above me, so clear and sharp, that all my senses ring with it. I feel it now: there's a power in me to grasp and give shape to my world. I know that nothing has ever been real without my beholding it. All becoming has needed me. My looking ripens things and they come toward me, to meet and be met.
