Ambitions, e.g. for success at work or sport, are natural and come from the urge to have a high social ranking. After all we're first and foremost social beings. So our position among others is inherently important to us. But we'r

I don't agree with many points. 1. Store uuids in a uuid field. Why starting the article with such a trivial finding that a text field is not optimal. 2. Use sequential uuids. 3. Several benchmarks have shown that the performace hit is

Obviously they did something terribly wrong in the first place and now are showing off being all right. Netty would probably faster. As there're no details at all, I feel free to just guess :-). I recently found Node much faster then .

Agreed, but how's that different to what the competition is doing? 16GB RAM starts at 2199 $US. That indeed quite off-putting for something that should replace my laptop.

Informations about HAProxy on multi-core hardware (TLS de- and encryption are CPU bound) are a bit discouraging. You can assign workers to cores, but there's no shared memory and therefore the official docs warn about some inconsistenc

It is. Associations and images create emotions which can't be easily overuled by rational thinking. That's why names like HyperDB still work for most people despite being obviously silly. Look at the marketing industry. I'm p

Unfortunately probably true. Alexa: "Tomorrow is your wedding anniversary. Do you want me to sent your wife a present?" Did I just write "unfortunately"? :-)

How come Bavaria has the highest GPD per captiva (without counting Hamburg and Bremen which are basically cities, not regions) and the second highest total GPD in Germany [1]? Your experiences are unfortunate and annoying - no doubt. But ev

Here are my 2 cents: 1. Don't use a boilerplate. Not even create-react-app. Learn webpack and npm and TS / Babel. It's not that hard. 2. If you havn't yet, take a second look at MobX. I got it once I realized that I can

The images of the 2000 line long JS and CSS monoliths didn't fit into a tweet. :-) Seperation should be by the responsibilities a component, not by language. So the trend to components in frontend dev is right despite some unfamiliar m

I'm running 32 GB Ram for 5 years without the siltiest stability issue. ECC is probably for really, really big machines 128 GB up or overall an overrated myth.

Even I'm no longer fond of upgrading my OS. Still refusing macOS Sierra. My PC is on Windows 10, but honestly, Windows 7 did the job pretty well. My parents hate every change on their devices. So does almost everyone I know who's

Younger people are not smarter. They might learn faster new things. On the other hand, older people understand related new things much better as they already have a large context (experience). The biggest difference of my current self (44)

Shameless marketing bullshit. All they want is our money (personal data). I don't have to install the app to already know that you have to agree to allow access to everything on our phones.

The whole point of big data is to collect whatever is available and reason about how to use it afterwards. So I guess we can be pretty sure that Google collects as much as they can.

The reason why most other manufacturers haven't released their autonomous driving is not that their systems aren't as sophisticated as Tesla's, but that all systems out there aren't ready yet. Tesla is stellar in many wa

I love and hate Ansible. It has simplified so many things for me, but also had some annoying bugs and regressions. Somehow I've lost trust in the codebase. Also performance is a showstopper. I need a tool to develop, I just can't

Exactly. This whole "declare your environment" thing with Ansible doesn't work. I've completely mixed experiences with Ansible. Yes, it's easy to get started, but it's certainly annoying having to create playbo

I don't understand how you configure your host-specific servicc dependencies, e.g. connection strings. Ansible (Puppet, Chef) does variable interpolation / templating for this purpose.
