It could be 5x of the valuation set at the last funding round, but I agree it's unclear what the OP meant.

I've had this thought before but it seems like the natural key for a web resource has to be the URL (location) plus the time that the resource was accessed for practical reasons. Pages are expected by the end user to change over time, but t

It's staggering that out of 2 trillion only 20 might be corrupted, assuming they lived up to their SLA. 2000000000000 - (.99999999999 * 2000000000000) = 20 Makes me feel pretty OK about having backups there.

I think you're off by an order of magnitude: 9999/10000 requests should succeed, so 1 in 500 loads of 20 assets would be expected to have an asset missing.

Liked the article, would have loved to have seen Philly (where I live.) I have a hunch PBR would beat out Bud Light in a lot of spots... Another piece of feedback: you should link to your startup's main page more prominently--I didn't find

I'm new to this problem (so please jump in and correct me if I'm wrong) but it occurred to me that Twitter could require that their most trusted "preferential" clients proxy requests from native apps through their own servers, which do the

I like the sentiment, but wouldn't a lawyer (which our current president and many other, perhaps most, politicians are) also exhibit each of these qualities? I think the more interesting distinction between engineer and lawyer is that of th

"...but it could also double as a backup." Take care when treating a high-availability set up such as this as a back up: if you are replicating all the changes between 2 database servers and an application error (e.g. not a database outage)
