I like the convention, but I challenge the idea that optimization can be just a refactoring.

While web forums and project management platforms come and go, mailing lists just refuse to die. It's the most pervasive chat protocol/format. I guess they will still be there when facebook already went the way of myspace.

Polled responses will be cached away at Google's Edge Cache. It's dumb on the client, but this scales practically without limit.

That's just not true (source: worked for a bankrupt European company once)

This. I use permissive licenses mostly, but if you're disgruntled about companies ripping off your work without ever giving back, it could be that you've used the wrong license.

Your place probably does not have conscription, because that is something else in terms of authoritarian experience.

AFAIK protobufs are not schema-less.

Auto companies that do this are essentialy motor engine companies. At their core, the structure is aligned to the R&D and supply chain required to build a complex machine with thousands of small parts. BEVs threaten this model, as the c

What about sleep deprivation and stress (possibly caused by the sounds)?

Sorry, but I will not ask you should somebody else's life be in danger. Touching, being a personal thing, is intended to take you out of your headspace and place you in the physical world (source: worked as an EMT in the past).

Also, if possible, touch that person while telling them to call 911 - helps them get moving if they are petrified.

It's a masterpiece that Google convinced everyone to use their crawler engine as a browser.

The JVM is not magic, neither are Java programmers magicians, but I think the reason magical terms are used to describe Java systems is that the ecosystem had lots and lots of time to develop libraries and abstractions (a few of which happe

I'm curious, do you have valid examples for generating events? I'm sceptical of allowing this as well.

FWIW, I use syncthing for this exact use case.

2000000 × 0.1 (post viewed) × 0.1 (post engaged) × 0.1 (clicked link to shop) × 0.1 (put shirt in shopping cart) × 0.1 (finished payment process) = 20 shirts sold math checks out

To the downvoters: note that I don't argue that it's actually a legitimate interest with respect to the GDPR, only that a third party looking to acquire (parts of) Google is likely to find it worthwile pursuing the chance that it

Legitimate interests are a potential backdoor to keep/sell customer data in the event of bankruptcy or ownership transfer. Provided legitimate interest can be argued, this would still be GDPR compliant. Given the potential value of the

Don't forget that capitalism (with companies), and life itself does things that way. It's not necessarily elegant (although some might say it's actually elegant), but it works.

Your grandma might be a physicist, and she'll explain it to you ;)

It's probably both. At the top of the Gauss curve, you can't afford a single thing to be off.

In case more than one service writes to the same table, either both should be under control of the same organization, or a stored procedure layer should be introduced for the external org (there will probably be more things to check that ju

That should be rejected at the API level already. It's possible to do that at the DB layer as well, but who's to say that there isn't another class of users that has higher limits.

AFAIK Palatir made a business model out of this (i.e. tracking provenance for datasets and models, along with permissions). (Just hearsay, not affiliated with Palantir in any way)

Ephemeral is not an option then, isn't it? In face of regulation, some things can't/shouldn't be optimized. It's already the case for more established industries like pharma.

What's the difference, memory-wise, between a single shard and two shards holding half the data each?

The important part is that they want the online communities to store name and address of individuals, already verified, by authenticating the user against a third party service like Mobile Connect. The authorities wouldn't have to matc
