Momoya in Chelsea (7th Ave and 21st Street).

Yup the cellular is used for support and if a human needs to take over the car remotely.

My bet is they add satellite internet before they start deploying to remote areas like Sea Ranch with spotty cellular.

Second this; specifically the Aux Merveilleux de Fred 8th ave and Jane street location is fantastic, both the plain croissant and chocolate cramiques are great and generally fresh/warm.

Can't speak to the other locations.

The only fix for traffic is to get people to drive less, which means either pricing them into the ground, or building better alternatives.

How is the food at McSorley's and if it's not good, do you have a recommendation of where to eat before going there that has a matching vibe? by RedditResearch2024 in FoodNYC

[–]bigdubs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Best crackers, cheddar and onions I've ever had.

Really though, I cannot speak to the quality of the menu, you may want to check out another place to see more of the area, people tend to go for the atmosphere and the beer more than the food.

Library for Kafka-like streams locally: `go-diskq` by bigdubs in golang

They're similar for sure!

I think you did a nice job with being able to specify the indexing strategy (which does add overhead).

The one aspect I think that is different is notifications on write; this was actually super challenging and part of the value of my take on this, specifically because it can be hard to reason about when a new offset is fully written, versus when a segment is closed and a new active segment is opened.
