Raft or Paxos are used for partition tolerance and there are implementations that you can use. Maybe you will spend more time but you will learn something useful. You will easily spend 10-20h for "normal" coding interview. 5h

A distributed database is ok as long you can assume reliable network and no partitions :P I do think that "homework" interview problems are better than pointless algo.

This was possible in Smalltalk environments where everything was in one "garden". Products like Cincom VisualWorks where doing this 20 years ago. The web is not unified like that, the foundation is way too shaky. Visual UI builder

That not true. Ph.D. in University was making the same wages as cleaner working in said University. You underestimate how ridiculous was communism. My parents after getting Masters choose to go into farming as it was better money. Everyone

Nobody force you to use Atom. In fact, there are half dozen alternatives that are faster and feature complete.

npm host half a million packages. It is impossible to manually QA anything. People also rename and re-publish unmaintained packages pretty often. The problem is JS that lack sensible standard library. Node is at fault.

I do not think you worked in Enterprise. Getting new tech approved is difficult, provisioning a VM takes weeks. Most enterprise lag at least 2 years behind everyone else. Enterprise apps are slow because developers lack shiny new tech. You

Both interviews highly biased towards interviewing skills: bs and basic algo. Judging if someone has the skill to build large system based on a conversation is silly. You cannot make an informed decision. You should look for people with the

This is a gold rush[1]. People that were early in BitCoin already cashed, now profit is made on exchanges and by hardware suppliers. It is even worse than Gold because you can't just hold when market crash. https://en.wikipe

We do. Most of our projects have 80%+ unit test coverage and decent amount e2e/acceptance tests. The problem with TypeScript is that in most codebases you will need to disable useful type-checks. Without strict null checking, you will

Your tests would catch breaking changes as well. In many typescript codebases (angular4) strict null checks is disabled befits are really minuscule. I am now doing an angular4 project and I do not feel any safer. If you want to have real st

OpenSSH was ported from BSB because there was no alternative in Linux. If not for GNU available for Linus, we would have now flame wars Red Hat vs Canonical coreutils. X was fine 20 years ago as a prototype. In the meantime, we could have L

I think systemd critique is misguided. The real problem is Linux. A lot of things in Linux is either bad or ancient. People are building these solutions: PulseAudio, systemd, NetworkManager, libuv, Xorg, SELinux, OpenSSH because they are fo

This is only possible if you can precisely draw business domain boundaries. Micro-services add large operational overhead. If you slice you application in wrong way you will suffer... IMO it is better to start from monolith and then extract

PHP is career killer. Its makes you worse developer, confine you as web developer and have poorly paid jobs.

Because Ruby and Python are relatively good languages. New implementation would need to be order of magnitude better to gain traction. It also makes large improvement difficult as well. I am rooting for Crystal, but without massive backing

Type information is used in JS engines to compile into native code. If type information is too vague or change you can have deoptimization[0] [0] http://jayconrod.com/posts/54/a-tour-of-v8-crankshaft-the-op...

My point is that you do not need Babel if you plan to target modern browsers anyway.

by Chyzwar 9y ago
I do not get why use Babel when both ASM.js and WASM are only supported in first class browsers. Without native interface to DOM this project is will be limited but It is interesting anyway.

You can load balance your app for 3.5k $ on additional server. By reducing load, time spend in GC will be less. Additionality by having more hardware you can use more aggressive strategy[0]. [0] http://www.cakesolutions.net/t

Incompetent programmer will finish task in the same time as 10x but at the same time it will break production for 5h, losing 100h for company and another 5h for someone to fix it.
