Not even super massive like amazon, even an app for a few million users you’ll run into the performance problems of FKs. They are really overrated in their usefulness - as parent says, orphan records are really not a big deal. As soon as

interesting at a prev job we switched _to_ ddlogs from sumologic because ddlogs was so much cheaper. Enterprise pricing isnt exactly transparent though, so who knows what goes into it.

And you think that’s a reasonable solution for all of the billion+ people that login to some kind of cloud services?

why would that matter? transmission from surfaces is apparently quite low, and it doesnt last long on surfaces, and its not like im touching / eating off anything my shoes come into contact with anyway. This feels like an incredibly lo

Yeah I mean if your project doesn’t get huge amount of usage, DJ is fine and quite simple. Unfortunately at any moderate scale or above a RDMS backed jobs table doesn’t cut it

If your “actual work” is designing documents for printing on dead tree paper, then sure. If your work is modern digital-first collaboration there are way more effective choices these days.

twitter had/has so called "zero rated" deals with most carriers, cut way back when. They dont(at least they didnt used to) pay anything per SMS, for most carriers. However, the infrastructure to go direct to that many intern

I don’t think it’s actually that widespread. You’re looking at a vocal minority; most people on balance enjoy the social (and other) benefits of co-located work, they just don’t blog about it.

This is why client & server side telemetry is so valuable. People on this forum like to get all up in arms about it, but having it makes for a much higher quality end user experience, as you can see all the problems people run into. Not

you have a different memory to me. I remember switching from hipchat to slack, and it was night and day, obviously better. Slack had more features, a better UX, and wasnt buggy as hell like hipchat

Haha yeah ive had work visas in both ca and the us. Ca is much more straightforward. It’s not easy , but it’s not riddled with hostile confusing BS like the US process is

I write a lot of go in the context of web(micro)services. In stateless services it’s almost always better to bubble up the error and let the caller retry. So I hate the current error handling in this context, it’s a verbosity tax with no va

Simple got acquired by BBVA(a giant 150 yrold banking conglomerate) in 2014. That’s my guess as to why they’ve stopped innovating, it’s a tale as old as acquisitions have existed. Also, they got acquired because they had no profitable busin

fair point on the debit lowering the effective "tax". I'll point to my edit and restate that its better for you , because you're well-off enough to get a 2%-back card. I'm guessing that the average across all cards

idk why you're downvoted; australia did exactly that recently - there's now a federal law capping credit card interchange fees at 0.8% maximum. The EU is now 0.3% max. Of course that means that you dont get so many fancy rewards b

I think craigslist survives _despite_ its ugly UI just because of market lock-in/inertia. the ui is awful from a utility/ux, pov - it’s limited and hard to shop/browse with.

if you arent familiar with the "jargon" in this post then you're probably not in a position to reasonably judge whether its "overly complex". Most everything in here would be familiar to anyone with experience worki
