Weren't the delivery startups of the 90s severely bloated? From what I remember, they had fleets of delivery trucks, warehouses, distributors, etc. Today's delivery startups are pretty lightweight (Not counting Amazon or Google si

I would think that Oracle would be investing more in something like flash storage in their hardware rather than optimizations to processor speed. More threads don't make the disc spin faster and a lot of DB workloads are bound by going

That's interesting you feel that way about DataTables. I was thinking about moving from slickgrid to datatables since slickgrid's author is no longer supporting the project. I was under the impression datatables might be easier to

What type of queries do you run on elasticsearch to pull into D3? I'm doing a very similar project (elasticsearch + web data vis) so I'm legitimately curious.
