Hey Kenrick, I agree - WebRTC would be a good choice since it allows out of order packets, that can speed stuff up quite a bit. Did you see this article? It was posted on HN yesterday. It links to a gh project that might be useful for your

The list doesn't mention Saudia Arabia. IIRC either Snowden or Wikileaks disclosed US government cables that confirmed Saudia Arabia have the A bomb.

In a way they are already obsolete. If you asked the top quantum physicists 5 years ago when they thought we'd have viable quantum computers, some of the top people in the field predicted that it would be in about 50 years. Well it&#x2

We just built something like this for the health market. Users can auto-sigin to websites with one of their identities or set it to ask for each visit. Here is a lil demo I made that uses Craiglist as an example: http://tricorder

I don't think they bought a fleet of jets for marketing. My point is about their respective cultures. Amazon's culture is just flat out better. Amazon just entered the retail grocery business. When they did it, they looked at the

If I had a crystal ball and could look into Amazon and Sears's respective C-Suites, this is what I imagine I'd see: Amazon Manager to subordinate: How is the progress going on our new jet and drone fleets? Sears Manager to subordi

Is the project sponsored by Couchbase? If not, have you thought about publishing a storage API that the replication protocol calls so that it could be adapted to work with any backend db? What about P2P sync - (eg. serverless) has anyone th

A few days ago, Karjakin tried to tilt Magnus by showing up very late for the press conference as a way to be disrespectful. Anyone know if there were there any other psych outs that happened? Historically, there have been some really inter

Nice product. I'm curious to know how the cost of their catalyst compares with other major energy sources in price /joules. The website crucially excludes how long the fuel pucks last at peak power output. They may not have worked

What about turning it into a general website for people looking to find collaborators or employment for video and other creative projects? If that exists - I'd be interested to know what the site is. Business model? How about an equipm

I doubt that the outrage from Democrats over Trump will be able to sustain the time frame necessary to make this a reality. On the other hand, Republicans have historically been more supportive of secession than democrats. They might have a

I used to run a labor hire company. I still do in a way (consulting), but at a lower volume. I've managed many offshore developers and other contractors. Because the skill continuum is massive, it took me several failed engagements and

I think the branding is brilliant. It's unforgettable. It's a statement of purpose. It hits their target market (engineers) perfectly. I sympathize though. Entomophobia must be a bummer.

As the author mentioned in the original article TLA+, ATPs etc verify the correctness of systems, they don't apply to the type of stability problems which have plagued CockroachDB. That emergent behavior arose from it's implementa

Everything's relative. It's easier to build a test framework for CockroachDB than to build CockroachDB itself. DI could help by simulating the network. It gives you more power to test out and record states around weird edge cases.

I found the conclusions for mitigating instability in future efforts very surprising. There was no mention of test suites, dependency injection, etc. If I was building this type of system, I would want to build an exhaustive test suite that

I have a feeling Apache leadership probably did the right thing here. It is after all, their brand. Recently there have been some strange things happening with the Cassandra project. Hopefully not another rethinkdb. For example, a longstand

Try seek.com.au. It's the biggest job site here by a big margin. Also I know someone that is looking for an EE, so you can send me your cv (email in profile) too if you wish.

If you need to leave the U.S. consider moving to Australia. (I did) The cost of living here is high, but the salaries are very high for professionals. If you are a talented thrifty person - you can save a lot of money fast. Good surfing too

Solar City is basically a bundle of loans that will pay off over the next 20 years. The company has lost a ton of money loaning out other people's money before govt solar subsidies expired. Now that it's at it's shittiest poi

A reason to do it is because most internet users >99.9% have a web browser. <0.01% have an irc client. You could argue that Twitter or Slack has sort of filled this niche for people who want to do #topic based chat but if the goal is

To fix irc, the best thing they could do would be to add first class support for js and websockets.
