> It'd take time and money to [develop a language] Isn't that part of the fundamental conundrum though? If your need is so great, and so common, and so beneficial to get solved then the cost of development should be less than

Specifically: if you're eating an ounce of mushrooms on the regular, then you are no longer 'micro' dosing, and there's a non-zero possibility that you are working on an article for Rolling Stone and just forgot.

The challenge with going big is that the risks and costs raise substantially, while the price of having a local expert to manage both the drive and any eventualities (ie a human driver), isn't changing much... Long-haul routes are impo

Also, wishing for a blanket increase in total number of busses by some huge percentage to avoid anyone standing probably sounds like a real nice plan until you have to pay for it... Capacity management isn't as easy as throwing driver

I evaluated several distributed databases for a healthcare-related system. The ability to lose messages in sharding scenarios, and the specifics of how one would recover them, made me think I could never support MongoDB for anything more se

You have to allow time for adaptation to the different kind of training... One session on an empty stomach from a fasting newb is not the same as someone who is metabolically adept at fasting training. Lots of people are exercising while f

Some people break their fasts with a high protein meal for some hormonal benefits, but there's no "missing nutrition". Some people over eat when breaking their fasts early in their adaption. Otherwise: our digestive cycles

As an app developer & architect I'm continually surprised by how often I bump into other techs on projects where BIG EFFORT is being put into all kinds of crazy ORM shenanigans, or subsystem development, or integration because peop

ETL pipelines that hop between different kinds of storage/computing platforms to exploit local maxima, like you're pointing out with R and SQL working in concert, is pretty common in companies working their way up to BigData and a

You can version your scripts & DB as they get pushed with a common tracking number. Personally I think it's best to establish a workflow where manual changes to the DB would be pointless and likely to result in them being overwritt

People forget that SQL isn't just Query (DQL), it's also definition (DDL), manipulation (DML), control (DCL), and transaction control (TCL), language [0]. Checkout that platform that a full-blown Oracle license can provide to your

SQL is wildly powerful and important, but it's also got clear deficiencies for data traversal and manipulation. I see it on a spectrum between declerative and imperative data structures, and where I think most people go wrong with it i

For data science and anything with a demanding domain model I find F# streets ahead of C#. For a project like this, though, the type F# providers are a bit of a game changer that opens a lot of roads to create a 'best of both worlds&#x

Databases that try to only reflect the entire truth as-is are like everyone working from a shared whiteboard. Databases setup to event source, ie reflect the truth as it happened at each step, are like everyone working from a shared spreads

Gits bi-modal nature is a wonderful representation of a sanely architected Event Sourced system. When needed it can create a delta-by-delta view of the world for processing, but for most things most of the time it shows a file-centric view

CQRS also alleviates a lot of the pain people experience around event sourcing and distributed systems with event evolution and manipulation. There are many cases where it's inappropriate for consuming services to be aware of the inte

It's also a prejudice not shared by people who live near reactors, who tend to be better informed and have much more positive opinions.

I think tiered pricing makes more sense at that level of subscription. Netflix is global, so at some level their product and pricing has to reflect what the "lower middle class" in Turkey, China, and Brazil can bear. We know that

Most of the kubernetes toolchain provides nice support for delineating the requirements from separate cloud providers, too. Compared to most alternatives, a little HELM magic to support hybrid cloud installations is a piece of cake.

There's also the possibility of using automation to create, update, and manage views. That lets your app be 'dynamic' with regards to new data and new datatypes, but also preserves the performance, debugging, segregation, an

C# is still rushing to get features that F# has had for years, with no hope on some major fronts. If F# were innovating that much it would indicate that F# was sorely lacking at launch, but it wasn't. F# is based on a much more mature

It's not entirely accurate either. Curly braces are everywhere, but they aren't used to distinguish contexts or end logical blocks, so you don't have the noise everywhere (increasing readability substantially). Semicolons are
