As always, people think their sphere of influence is larger than it actually is. Even for tech. Social problems are not caused by tech, so tech might not be able to solve them. Head out into the poorer parts of SF and the surrounding area,

I've never heard of that before, and I've taken flights out of Israel in 43°C weather. Could just be a 'fuel price' thing

I've been talking to some banking innovators, and they're not really sure what it is they're doing with Blockchain. There's promise in the concept, but not in the current iteration. It's not suited for actual bankin

Stayed on 5th street at a very nice hotel. Couldn't believe how different 6th street and up look (Fashion district / Downtown). Hundreds of people in "shanti towns", shopping carts full of bottles, rubbish, tents, oil-dr

In my experience, it's not just one language. A lot of products are built in a variety of languages, based on what the need is. Python for testing, Haskell for static testing, C++ for high-performance low-level stuff, Lex & Yacc fo

Some do, some don't. It's not as simplistic as that. Saying "Do you need a large amount of Data?" and then saying not to use GPU databases ignores SQream's experience in managing more than 1PB of data, and Kinetica&

That's why all GPU databases I know of are columnar, or at least hybrid (in the case of IBM DB2 BLU)... The more complex the operations performed on the columns (trasnform), the better the GPU database will be - because of the higher o
