Unless you live in the bay area, which is where a huge number of software engineers live. My commute was over an hour and I still couldn't afford to buy anything.

I hate these shoes. I have a medium cushion running shoe and it's already too much, like running around on a sponge. Flat and thin is still the best and I'm looking forward to these shoes dying so I can go back to it.

People are always worried about Google or FB doing something nefarious, but in all honesty it's going to be your local dentist or something that leaks all your private info and gets your identity stolen and life ruined.

The "self-interest angle" in my experience has been that the people who are getting paged also hold the keys for launching new things. If they think the thing is too hacky and unpolished to be allowed to page them in the middle of

Prometheus supports sharding queries the way a screwdriver supports turning multiple screws at once. You can design a system yourself that includes the screwdriver, which will turn all the screws, but there's nothing inherent to the sc

This still requires the query to fit on a single node at some point unless you're doing multi-level aggregation. Monarch does that. Being able to push expensive, highly-parallelizable aspects of the query down into the leaves is a mass

To be fair, monarch has scaling limits that require you to be aware of how aggregation is done as well. It's amazing what it can do, but depending on how much data you have you might need to design your schema/collection with mona

It sounds like you're mixing up the casual, colloquial use of addiction ("I'm addicted to key lime pie") with the medical term ("i suffer from addiction"). The latter is not just a failure of willpower and is q

I don't understand how people end up like this. As if it's normal for your skin to just flake off if you let your hair grow naturally. If your body is falling apart without constant cosmetics, you probably have an issue that needs
