He probably used his grey matter to realize that he'd rather not risk losing his job for some random person.

was it a binary tree or a binary search tree? a BST can be uniquely identified by one of pre/post-order traversal, whereas a binary tree requires an in-order traversal and one other. or placing sentinels that specify a state machine [P

how would you say that investors are forcing short-term groupthink at Amazon?

Yeah, I thought they knew. Here's what I thought might've been on their list 1. You get a single IPv6 per instance (as opposed to a CIDR range). 2. You still have to deal with IPv4 CIDR ranges 3. ...which means you have to deal wi

Could you explain what you don't like about IPv6 on aws? At the very least it seems to me it'd be the least "sad" on AWS.

Then have that environment? If you know what you need and it isn't unrealistic, then get/make it.

This has been mostly true for any new business or technology. The "hockey stick" growth point often occurs when it becomes more difficult for existing businesses not to use it.

While there are plenty of stateful services out there (somebody has to store your data or spin up your VM, after all), I think you'd be surprised at how few if any of them require distributed transactions. a lot of problems that appear

First, I think when you talk about all the things you've built into the canonical data store (CDS), why can't some of these be decomposed services in their own right? Permissions would be a valuable service to decouple from CDS, f

The 30 second answer is that standard oil owned an incredible percentage of the oil market, both in horizontal expanse as well as vertical integration. They were broken up by the government through antitrust regulations, and IMO the most in

Yeah, I can see how using "Not" as opposed to "Inverted" would trip up people here. However, I would say that's a naming issue and (for some reason) a resiliency to using explicit deny policies.

Would you mind saying more about what you had to build, and what you would liked to see? One thing I'd like to see in the future is scaling actions that supported multipliers, as well as metric math support (scale service to request_co

Reading through this, I would change "Dynamo is Amazon’s hosted version of Cassandra" to "DynamoDB is Amazon's hosted key-value store, similar to Cassandra". The former (to me) sounds like you're saying they ve

So, people in AWS and other parts of Amazon are totally allowed to comment on social media. I do! that's not to say there's a lot of people commenting on social media in any offical capacity, because a lot of people don't wan

The problem is your workforce still wants a liquidity event that rewards them for helping build a multibillion dollar company. this means either company buy-backs or authorized secondary market transfers that will likely not result in the a

So I'll preface my opinion with the fact that we're both putting words into some dudes mouth. When he or anyone else says that we should promote women, it's not saying that we should promote incompetent women. It's sayin

Ideally perpetual free tiers are the best, especially their usage becomes a rounding error.

The security is that it requires physical presence (your finger completing a circuit) to perform authentication. Leaving it plugged in doesn't detract from that.

Would you have no/less concern if they encrypted your SSN and used that for non-1099k related tasks?

Well what is your SLO around message delivery? If it's "a successful response means a message will be delivered at least once and in under X time" then you need to verify that message has been durably committed to multiple ma

Arguably their core business is synchronized notes and well-done applications. The storage, hosting, networking, electricity etc are all implementation details.

Amazon (today) maintains a git repo per package, though in theory there's no reason why it has to stay git (or even be homogenous). Each application is a set of versioned artifacts that can be updated, forked, or merged together so lon

One thing every cloud storage company could do here is be explicit about what data is and isn't encrypted at rest (I'm assuming all data is encrypted in transit), and what data is accessible to what group/number of people. I

Nice layman explanation of cloud storage. I think it would've been worthwhile to add something about how difficult security is, and how cloud storage makes it easier to keep your data secure (at a cost).

In addition, look to current cloud providers for managed mysql and postgres offerings. aws has managed mysql and postgres, as well as aurora-compatibility for both. gce has managed mysql, and i've noticed over the past few months peopl

I wasn't commenting to Kafka specifically (I've never operated a Kafka cluster in a production environment), but Java applications in general.

Having distributed consensus as a distinct service (as opposed to directly building it into each application) is beneficial to a lot of companies because they can invest resources to make it operate well (in addition to being correct) and r

I agree that the focus on memory size is misguided, but I do think that startup times are critical even (especially?) in production. Compounding the startup time of the JVM w/ classpath searching and reflection heavy libraries and fram

The important distinction is that there is no true file hierarchy and no tree traversal for object search. This has material impact on using s3 as a file system.
