Is there a similar API with the etymology of the words? I played with this a bit and it doesn't seem to cover this area.

I generally prefer the pagination style of navigation for longer materials unless it's being used as reference material that I want to quickly search through. The reason being is that with scrolling I find it's easy to lose my pl

There's a saying that "only the good die young" which applies to Java GC. If your Instants and Strings are really short lived then the GC for those is nearly free. For your workload are these objects living on the heap for

You might think so but I'm seeing a number of local restaurants offering free delivery if you call in your order directly so it would appear 30% is not, in fact, a reasonable cost for delivery. At least for some restaurants.

Unfortunately, in an economic environment like this a union won't help you. We're seeing many public services staff that are unionized laid off (in Canada) and I'm sure this is happening around the world. By the end of this

That's not really the case as far as I can tell. I had an old account from learning some of their complementary Azure content via Microsoft and I was able to enter my existing email id and activate the 30 day free content on my accoun

I read an interesting article a while back that posited that we have seen inflation but it's been masked in the regular basket of consumer goods by cheap imports from China. Meanwhile we have seen significant inflation in housting but

As is pointed out in the article for the most part fonts are a form of progressive enhancement and lacking the font normally doesn't actually break a website. Unless a little less pretty == broken of course.

And Google is certainly in a position to disambiguate that uuid to an individual as soon as they login to gmail or any other Google property!

Curious how support is for commercial databases like SQL Server and Oracle? In the larger, older, enterprises these databases are rampant...

I'm not surprised. Azure is the obvious choice at the enterprise level since it's MS makes it relatively easy to sync on-prem Active Directory into Azure AD.

So far what I've observed is <10s cold-start times on GCR. This is a fairly lightweight web app written using Undertow in Java so carries a JVM as overhead.

Right now you may be able to do more with AppEngine but the trade-off is you're locked in to platform-specific APIs. With Cloud Run there's no platform lock in since all it is, is a Docker container with whatever you want running

Sounds similar in concept to Crossplane ( https://crossplane.io/ ) except that Crossplane is trying to be cloud-agnostic?

SonarQube does as well. I've been shocked at some of the analysis it does.

Sleep tracking at $30/month? Are you joking? I don't think anyone moving from a Fitbit is going to be willing for that kind of $$$ commitment to track sleep!

On the other hand if Oracle started charging more that would allow Amazon to justify spending more on internal investment to speed up the migration.

The higher-end tape devices are capable of running at slower speeds to better match the rate you're feeding data to it to avoid this.

Pretty much just as unsuited. Even if a van has 3 times the area available to solar panels it's still a negligible amount of energy... By the way, the best book and/or course I've read for building intuition for these kinds

The article did a pretty good job of explaining the differences. Did you just skim it quickly? Mainly, no need for a daemon or running as root.

Actually ElasticSearch is paying the salaries of a number of Lucene committers. At least they did so already about 5 years or so ago. Haven't followed things closely more recently.

I'm curious what you find distracting in Gnome? Unless you're running in Classic mode the newer versions got rid of everything except the top menu bar and that is less busy than it used to be. The default launcher works very wel

AdoptOpenJDK is at a bit of a disadvantage because it doesn't currently have permission and/or access to the TCK for Java SE so is unable to certify their builds ( https://adoptopenjdk.net/support.html#jck ). This

And perhaps also a desire to maintain parity with Azure since they announced Java LTS support via Azul for their customers a couple months ago ( https://azure.microsoft.com/en-ca/blog/microsoft-and-azul-sy... ).

I'm not so sure. In the world of large enterprise which is just now waking up and jumping all-in with "digital transformation" projects and "cloud strategies" Microsoft appears to be winning the battle. I work for

The same applies to Google. Microsoft appears to have the leg up on Oracle & IBM as far as winning "enterprisy" clients.

The website appears to emphasize communicating via the written word and other asynchronous forms of communication. I'm curious whether you found communicating asynchronously didn't work or wasn't as effective or if it was t
