For those confused, this is just a recreation of an animated image of pacman, not a playable recreation of the actual game. Impressive still, but not exactly what's lead to be believed by the title.

I'm no scrum fanatic, but there's real value in doing estimates at the beginning of work, then reviewing how long it took at the end of work (without revising estimates mid workstream). The point of separating these from actual ti

Spot on! Never thought about it from this perspective. :-)

This is revealed if you go to any of their tech talks too. That's not to discount the engineers working there, they indeed do have a number of bright engineers. But the no accountability comment is spot on.

The maintainer of glibc believes the only way is the glibc way. Color me surprised.

Schema evolution is just as big of a dependency hell as managing direct library dependencies. With a monolithic architecture, a lot of those concerns are contained within the context of a single repo, and can be tested much more easily tha

And it's a gambling company, so I'm sure they have a strong moral compass.

Lee interviewed me at Cloudflare. At that time he was still quite active and very interested in his work. It was definitely a noticeable decline, but we all just attributed it to burn out. I think everyone at Cloudflare was heartbroken wh

I'm not sure there have been any studies on it but it makes sense that cognitive dissonance in humans would be a genetic advantage over other species. It allows us to acknowledge unfortunate truths like death and existentialism withou

Of course they can, but this is just click bait is my point.

Weren't epidemiologists saying this in mid January after the first scientific analyses came out of China? Not sure there's anything novel here. Just another epidemiologist continuing to try and get the word out and people continui

Having friends in the program, I can tell you it's run like a circus. Expecting 10 people who don't have any experience programming to cooperate on a project without any support or oversight is just asking for student failures. Of

Reading history about the founder, I think he had his eyes set on massive growth from the outset over the actual experience. He got starry-eyed working in growth at LendUp and wanted to build his own rocket ship. I don't think he ever

Outages are definitely less common than they used to be. But I would guess that reddit is one of the most popular sites on the internet because it's basically like an anonymous(ish) facebook with content guaranteed to be popular with

The implication is that clickhouse can't easily support transactional queries. That's why it's an OLAP not OLTP database. (On-Line Analytics Processing vs On-Line Transaction Processing).

The title of the page might be a little snarky, but it's in the introduction that transactional queries are not supported: https://clickhouse.yandex/docs/en/introduction/features_cons... Sure it's n

Tightly coupled storage and execution engines, along with an opinionated view on the actual storage format.

It's pretty clearly laid out in the docs. Hopefully anyone seriously considering using Clickhouse reads the docs thoroughly and understands what they're implementing.

I don't think I've ever seen "fun" and "aws console" used in the same sentence before. The value to me personally is the reliability. Amazon continues to deliver on highly reliable services, which is IMO the m

A shining example of how far off the mark Cisco is. Pretty sure this is just a marketing piece, but regardless, the industry needs to stop thinking of software development and operations as inherently separate. Developers should operate th

I read both this and "The Making of a Manager", and I've got to say, "The Making of a Manager" has much better advice and is a lot easier to act on than what Manager's Path gives. I think the primary difference

On top of that, once you install the app you get constant push notifications and the reviews are shit anyway. There are plenty of places I love which have 3 stars and plenty I hate which are 5. Granted, Google and other crowdsourced review
