This is an awesome article. I would love to see the tests packaged in such a way that we could port them to other DB's easily and perhaps do something like the web framework shootout, but with database consistency.

So my first instinct when I saw this was to immediatly classify this guy as a tesla detractor just trying to get some publicity by bashing the EV. However its a well written piece, I imagine we have all been in a similar situation with gas

Well I think the resolution is the same too. The only way to deal with this specific issue is to not participate. Implicitly all those people who are being effected by this are enabling it by participating in the activity. I actually think

So kinda like exactly what Community portrayed in their MeowMeowBeanz episode http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3278596/?ref_=tt_ep_ep9

The sad thing I think about with articles like this is that even though they discount the amount of people who really like and use G+ ( we exist I swear ) that unless _enough_ people like it runs the risk of being cancelled.

If over half your critique is that systemd does _more_ then its predessor and all of those are valid services, that it can do well, then I don't see the real complaint here. I mean are you upset because its different.

Thats not c++ code. My claim is that if you try to stay pure using C++ you end up with very very ugly code that preforms pretty poorly.

And as a trade off you get a much cleaner and more performant solution to the same contrived problem. This is where Haskell and functional coders tend to break down. Yes its mutable, but by violating that one rule you gain so much in terms

This is clearly a flamebait title. The article doesn't say anything about why MongoDB is running out of time other then "PostgreSQL is making real progress as a document store". I think unwittingly the author has identified w

Well I thought it would take longer for activists to start targeting companies in the wake of the Mozilla issue. I am actually surprised to see this happen so quickly. Its good to know that I am free to excersize my rights unless I want a j

Awesome news. I am excited for the aggregation cursor. As much as I love some of the alternatives that are almost ready I still turn to mongo for a vast majority of my deployments. Hopefully it will keep getting better and pushing others to

So what your saying is as long as the angry mob agrees with you then its ok, but if they disagree with you then they are wrong.

This is a dangerous precedent. On one hand this is the only thing Brendan can do its clear that the community at large will not accept dissenting opinions, but its really a small step between holding this line for a CEO and holding it for a

There are totally trends in management, however the "shift" to open floor plans is not the new trend its a return to the trend we had _before_ we went on the quiet isolation kick in the late 60's. I think now that we have act

I like open floor plans. I find I get more done in my open floor plan office then my closed off private office at my house. I hate how all these critiques are so absolute in that "Open Floor Plans are Bad". Open floor plans work,

Right and rackspace is claiming they are taking care of all that for me. Or are they just spinning up hosts and I still need to configure everything
617.
by dkhenry 13y ago
Maybe you misunderstood what I was asking. I know MongoDB can scale out to very large sizes, but it becomes more of a effort to scale it out correctly ( 3 config servers and all shards replicated ). My question is can I just turn a dial at

by dkhenry 13y ago
I would love to see a use case from a large deployment. MongoDB is trivial at small scale and it is only when you get to large deployments that it really needs some TLC. If they can somehow make large deployments simple it might make mongo

So where do I buy one and test it myself. I love the theory, and some of the claims are awesome, but I am reminded of the Cell-BE and the chatter around it at release time. It wasen't untill we got the Cell into the hands of developers

I was about to abandon my Java driver for your Scala driver at one point. Scala is just a better language in so many regards.
621.
by dkhenry 13y ago
Well that looks promising. I will need to make a JDK8 branch to integrate this.

by dkhenry 13y ago
It will make it on par with the interface for other document oriented databases. I think it will be a lot more user friendly then the protobuf, and it might be the best that Java can do.
623.
by dkhenry 13y ago
So the way all underlieing communication is done is through a protobuf. So in python I know they hijack the expression and they can then construct the protobuf from the passed in python lambda. In Java land we can't really do that sinc

I know its not an official driver, but I maintain the Community Java driver here[1]. If its missing something you would need feel free to open an issue and I can add it for you. I have been using RethinkDB with java for a few projects and i

by dkhenry 13y ago
I love the elegance of ReQL and how well it works in dynamic languages, but I still can't figure out a good way to port that lambda syntax used in python into the Java driver.

Because some people don't use it correctly doesn't mean it can't be done. Here is a different random article about ServerDensity using it successfully https://blog.serverdensity.com/tech-behind-time-series-gra

I guess this is a good introduction to some of the internals, However its very very high level. If I were to give one piece of advice it would be to plan out your primary key's according to your data access pattern. This is especially

This is awesome. hey @schmatz since I see your reading this. See if you guys can figure out a way to make it persistent and Massively Multiplayer. I want to write a program to defend my tower while I am at work, then hop on at night and tel

I am not happy doing nothing. I don't understand how you can be do content just "chilling". Now don't get me wrong there is nothing wrong with recreation and spending time with your family, there isn't even anything
