The only way you can get a raise really right now is to quit your job and find a new job that's willing to pay you more. This has been happening for quite some time you can blame neoliberalism or you can blame CEO's who earn more.

Sure Postgresql can handle doing metrics; been doing it for 2 years without any timescaledb. I also use influxdb. Different tools for different purposes

Kind of a disappointing read; guess I've scaled past them. I was doing over 1 Million Metrics every 60s; I big problem I always found wasn't statsd. It was carbon. Once you configure carbon on a big enough host with the right too

I'm kind of sorry I read this; thought maybe I could learn or .. Not even technical and like in the disclaimer they're not open sourcing anything.

Go ahead and downvote this; but where's the source? Otherwise isn't this pointless bragging?

You don't; unless you talk to each of them and try and figure out if they are worth their salt. You should assume they don't know anything until proven otherwise.

Most people would agree who live in Washington that they don't care; because they don't pay income tax either. If the system needs to change; then the people who are elected need to change things. Every state has different tax law

Right it can also be seen as a power play to be dating your superior. But I still hate to see a company policy stop 2 people from loving each other. The intelligent thing however would be for 1 person to quit the company and work in a diff

Eh I used CoreOS because I wanted a minimal distro that just provided docker. I'm sure they'll try and tailor Fedora Core to do the same thing. It's just that it's Fedora; it's my allergic reaction to running redha

I don't think i'll use a self-hosted Git Service that does not eat it's own dog food. Just smells bad; makes you think their product is so bad enough they don't even use it.

Github searches your code to index it so you can be able to use the search box to find things. Everyone searches your code; because if you upload child porn it needs to be detected and removed. Maybe this is unfortunate but the only way to

I can speak from experience that the inbox is the property of the company. Worked at many company's who would commonly just disable the email account to login and forward all new email to a manager (or ceo/whatever). This is also

Because in the end it's all about making money off of people trying to buy things. Sure you could say the cost is justified to run the credit card network and keep it secure. I hope they really do.

The trend of crappy posts from Percona continues they must want attention suddenly. Percona was best at consulting; their DBA's were worth it. The software maybe close to irrelevant now but not their DBA's.

If trump tries to trim down the monopolies it will only be in his favor. I still won't mind because Microsoft faced a pretty big case over IE. It could do that behavior now and no one would stop them. Sure Firefox would care but I do

Most managed hosting providers have some form of Openstack or an API to provision baremetal servers or something similar. It is easy to sit back and say AWS is really easy; but it just means you haven't looked elsewhere. Additionally m

and in 6 months they can turn around and claim they will save 30% of their hosting costs by migrating to bare metal. It's just a game to keep VC's and other people happy. ---- Hey ma! look I cut our costs by 25%
