What is the current stance between Redis Streams vs Kafka? Serious question. Because I prefer not to have both in production.

Wow, I like the selling points: * Strong modular system and built in testing. * Global state is not allowed. * There's no null and everything is automatically initialized to empty values. No more null reference crashes. * Variables are

The millionaire next door. It changed my mind completely on the fact that being a millionaire is actually attainable. And these are all average Joes!

I wish that button actually works reliably. More often than not, I got redirected to App Store to re-download Reddit app, instead of launching the post in the app.

If I can ask for 1 feature request for TensorFlow.js: It would be nice if the library abstracts out DOM objects (window, document, etc.).

The only generic platform I need to keep up with friends and family is WhatsApp. I wish WhatsApp IPO’d instead of selling out to FB. Good for consumers. Founders would have made more money too.

Wow, that sucks! So, have you move on from that company?

The true workhorse behind this one-liner is inotify(Linux) or FSEvents(Mac) API. Not sure what is the Windows equivalent. If your favorite language has access to those, then you can basically build your own file syncing client.

If I were to guess, don't kill me for this. Working for Google creates a much bigger cognitive dissonance compared to other FAANGM. Google disproportionately promotes culture as number 1 reason to work there, where as the rest of the c

"will not be productive for months" is probably going to be instant deal breaker from about 98% managers. Also, another big responsibility is teaching the rest of your coworkers. Classes, hackathons, documentations, etc.

I am not well-verse in Java world and curious about one thing. The valuable part of Oracle JDK is the GC. For example G1 is only going to be available on OpenJDK 9. What if there's a new GC being developed, will OpenJDK have the new GC

I don't get it. If you are going to pave your own path, rejecting Apple ecosystem, then why not just be part of Linux ecosystem? It probably takes less money and effort to simply buy a Linux laptop.

Even though this is nothing but a centralized client-side libraries, it allows Go developers to live in a multi-cloud environment sooner. I am pretty excited about it.

For a statically typed language, the number of sigils Go have is surprisingly low.

redis-trib.rb is finally ported to redis-cli. Thanks Salvatore! Stream data type looks very interesting as well. Is the goal to be competitive to Kafka-like use-case?

Dating service for FB is too obvious of a feature, I am surprised they just start doing it now. A social network is an obvious place for people to meet new people. I think this is a really good idea for FB.

This is just my own humble opinion. I think whoever boosted their cloud offerings (in terms of market share) the next few years, will reach $1T market cap first. And it’s well within reasons for all major cloud vendors to reach $1T in a cou

I think others asked similar questions. What is your desire and goals? I think as a first year, it's a little too premature to make a large decision like this. Just go and have a few internships first, then see what's out there. I

Can’t the laser be contained inside fiber optic cables? If so, then it’s much safer than direct beam. This also means fiber can now deliver power.

Aren't most software engineers already doing this? Initially I was SDET, doing a bunch of boring JUnit work. Then I wanted to get into video game industry while I was still young. Learned Microsoft Visual C++ along the way. Then I got
