It seems like a valid reflection of the internet as a whole. "I am good, you are bad" makes up a huge amount of social media, Twitter conversations, etc. Is it controversial because we don't like the reflection of ourselves

I learned something new, thanks for sharing! What format works well for hardware caching?

by di456 4y ago
It's cheap if the cache is also on SQLite. Might not even need a separate db for some use cases. This runs on python and works with several backends including SQLite. https://requests-cache.readthedocs.io/en/stabl

It's also been a game of chicken to see who can hire the best talent the fastest and keep them off competitor's patrol. Anything to support growth. But that wasn't sustainable.

Oracle BI has this separation in the RDP layer. So there is some history of BI tools separating out that layer but the separation doesn't have to result in giving up control. It's more of an organizational decision. Although it&

How does this compare to multidimensional OLAP cubes? Do they solve similar problems of different time windowed views of the data?

This misses the main driver. Valuations are no longer based on growth. The entire market has shifted to profitability over growth. Companies with a stronger balance sheet coming out of the recession will be better positioned for the long

Interesting, could you elaborate? Is it because the digestive tract is isolated from the rest of the body? Almost like the body was built up around it?

They break just like why other car part. The replacement cost of a fancy, proprietary head unit is in the $US thousands. I'd rather save thousands on the car price up front with a basic head unit that is affordable to replace.

I'm in the 21%. I prefer my phone in a dash mount for navigation. I don't need or want an expensive, outdated head unit that costs an arm and a leg to replace. Give me Bluetooth and analog knobs and I'm happy.
