Many organizations have used Excel as a CRM and then hit a lot of problems. It is very hard to scale up and also hard to add features to if you need them.

I think the point is that you might be able to build something else than a standard relational db and make it faster. Something like VoltDB but there are other solutions. There used to be some blogs about their architecture and how they cou

Windows have had locks for specific things for many years. They also created a new model with sandboxed runtimes för Windows Store Apps but those are not very popular. Yarn, a ja package manager, tried to forbid any code execution during

And if it uses a specified order and requires a schema we might as well use ProtoBuf which is probably faster.

With the current upwards trend for python I wonder how many companies will come to the same conclusion the next 5 years? Maybe ending up rewriting large parts of their system. If not to Golang then to some other fast and statically typed la

Hm, if I turn on 1-year-history or history-forever and includes my node_modules folders in the backup will I fill their whole storage cluster?

Rebasing and keeping commits makes very easy to read history, everything is in a logical order. The order may not be the exact chronological order in which is was written but that is rarely needded, the rebases guarantee that it _could_ hav

I think Emacs and Vim missed how popular js got. That is a reason why Atom and VSCode has tons of plugins for everything including some Intellisense-like completion.

They can be a lot cheaper. Maybe only in some cases but then it can make a difference.

My guess is that c/c++ experience is really good when you apply for a c or c++ job. If you apply for a web developer job mostly consisting of html+css+js it might not be seen as a plus. Even for c# and java jobs c++ experience is somew

C# has been more focused on Windows but there it has been very easy to create gui applications. In fact there are probably more (Windows) gui applications made with C# than with any other language. Maybe Electron and js has taken over now.

I am still not clear on why Python has become popular. It wasn't a few years ago. They might use it more in universities nowadays but it seems backwards if the business's starts using languages just because they are used in educat

It is an interesting idea. That does mean that Haskell should never get too popular, if it gets popular it won't work very well for testing new ideas any more.

Is there anything similar that works with Docker Swarm?

Thanks for the tip! I will try it out.

Logic spread out as different code parts that consumes events and then creates new events can be very hard to follow. A simple loop might be obvious but when part A creates event B and part C reads event B and then creats a new event that p

They only got 6 engineers and I am not sure their method would have scaled if they needed a few more. Since they had investment money it might have been better to spend more to find people faster.

I think it is illegal to sell >= 25HP two stroke boat engines in Europe. When we last bought one they only had four strokes.

The article only tested one site with one browser, hardly a good test. It may be correct anyway but it IS not a proof. It may also be much harder to implement something like a comment section that is fast and correct with only static html a

An interesting question is how the compile times in Go compares to those of Java and C#. If the language is somewhat easier, but not very easy, and compiles faster but not really that much faster, it might not be a good way forward for Java

You could turn it around to say that screen readers should support javascript. Some already do. They can execute the scripts and _then_ read the resulting DOM tree.

Wasn't Haskell created by a university? That would be more tax dollars than community-driven.

I would probably use the word array if you can access any item without traversal. Just a thought.

A SaaS would not live within enterprise firewalls and might therefor be a no-no for many companies.

We use Teamcity even though we have Gitlab for source control. Teamcity has worked for years which we needed. Don't know if we ever will switch to Gitlab for CI.

Aren't there more third party libraries for java than for go? Then that is no reason to go from java. Performance wise they seem to be pretty similar too. Of course not for startup time in serverless environments but for most server ap
