   In the real world, you'll be spending more time on code design than typing it out. The race against a deadline mostly affects design choices. eg. Whether implementing a certain feature yourself with rigorous testing, or introducing a n

   I have been playing with the multi-source replication feature for quite some time. It works like a charm for most versions. It had some issues replicating events from Percona 5.6 but that was with 10.0.2, I believe. I'm hoping they hav

   This is insane. I can complete 2048 easily, but can't seem to win this version. For others, it's other way around. How does that work? :/

    "Women can't visit temples or public places, they're not allowed to cook or touch the water supply". I've seen educated folks doing this as well, so, sadly yes. It is true. Most women follow it because their mothers

    Agree with #2. After a certain point, money is no longer a motivating factor. The crappy part about this is you have to reach that point to realize this. #3 has been the best thing I've read so far today.

    I swear this post feels like I've typed it word for word. I'm pretty much in the same situation except I'm planning for a Masters next year. Hoping to see good advice here.

    I've never updated my skill set on LinkedIn. Don't see any value to it. And yet some of my friends who have no idea what I'm working on endorsed me for random programming skill set. There should be a credibility factor when s

    Short answer: Depends where you're looking at. Long answer: In India, you'll find engineers dime a dozen. IT service companies like Infosys, Accenture, etc. recruit the bulk of the students from the universities. They don't
