- projektir 8y agoDo we know if research in software development is of higher quality than, say, psychology research, or nutrition research?
- tincholio 8y agoFrom my (admittedly very limited) exposure to either, I'd say no.

Seems strange to make the guess without basis then says so.. except that it's suspiciously in the right OOM. Perhaps it was unconsciously based on that "shower" article providing a cost estimate for AWS, as well as an estimate of the premium over hardware. https://blog.expensify.com/2018/01/08/scaling-sqlite-to-4m-qps-on-a-single-server/ https://blog.expensify.com/2018/01/08/scaling-sqlite-to-4m-q... https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16118776 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16118776
