If you need an in memory cache, you use memcached. If you need data structures and have trivial data sets (this is an enviable position) you use redis. If you don't know why you need one or the other, use redis until you can't any

Except UNLIKE the Rolex analogy, the recommendation is not "do not carry your role" it is more akin too "do not own a Rolex". Or more directly, "avoid the problem by not having enough resources to own a Rolex".

You need a deterministic way to explain to the machine how to score itself, which is the problem. If a precise win condition exists without human intervention, then the software can iterate on itself.

maybe, but you have to start with a better definition of spam. Currently, you're describing it as "something that you wouldn't want to read" where even a fellow human might not hit the mark 100% of the time. Machine lear

I think the turn lanes and bike lanes were the motivation, the lane width became the accommodating variable.

Looks like we've got an expert here. Please sir, cure us of our collective ignorance. What is the ideal street width, in millimeters? Edit: I'm going to leave my comment as-is, and just point out that this is a question that you s

It's fair to say I'm assuming an interpretation that's difficult to prove on its own merit, but the implied counter-interpretation here implies that it was perfectly normal for him to be the republican nominee in the first pl

But at what COST. As a platform shaping measure, this is clearly an intentional measure to create a /specific/ different echo chamber. This is the mechanic that just created a Trump presidency.

Arguably, that doesn't count as type classes because it REQUIRES call-site awareness of the implementation. This makes it fully ad-hoc and fully impractical as a useful abstraction. At that point you might as well call a static method

Sounds like there might be some projecting in play...

I like the idea, but I think this kind of thing feels obtuse in languages like C# and Java where the "templates" are 100% written with the hosted language. Some languages can work around this by having flexible type definitions an

Only if you extract a ton of value per user or can serve a huge number of users per machine. Otherwise, upping the number of servers by an order of magnitude will start requiring an operations team to maintain. That was a pretty common trui

I assure you, it's not that simple. You either check types at runtime (big performance penalty, aka: C Python) or you don't because a compiler (or JIT) did the leg work. If you have to double check types at runtime, you've al

Yeah, but you also have to fork a whole process per request to do it. Process fork, CoW overhead every time you mutate a page, and a full OS thread per request. Oh, and let's not forget negotiating a new database connection per request

Because it announces that you intend to use the name 'A' in the current scope after some assignment happens in a nested one. It's intentional. It /can/ be useful, but it should be opt-in. JavaScript had to figure th

Python does support block scoping- so no- it doesn't work there. Also, if you need to use variables in outer scopes, it's ok to declare them there. There is literally, and I mean this, literally- no possible justification for usin
