   Did Maxis just lose the game? Why didn't the company have a copy of their own game.

   How is this any different than sites that track what people are highlighting in the text? If anything, tracking what you highlight is a worse violation because it can reveal your inner thoughts and values, which is more valuable and harder

   Sure, but if you're going to say that Twitter should not do any fact checking, then they have to hold all users to the same ToS. Twitter is clearly not holding Trump to the same standard as everyone else for 'news-worthiness&#x27

   Impressive - always amazed at the low-level stuff you can do in browsers nowadays. Nice job.

   Our primary concern was absolute maximum performance on huge numbers of tiny files (terabytes of video cut into single-frame TIFFs) for video processing while also having at least some protection against a single failed drive. We were on a

   yea I had a mirror of striped drives. Gave you max throughput with some protection against failure.

    your rationale leaves something to be desired. I don't know if its really valid to consider something a dangerous tech just because it can be misused. Your computer can be very dangerous if misused - such as if you drop it out of a w

    definitely true - but it's really hard to gauge what performance will actually be until you have the whole thing setup even with benchmarks.

    I have also only ever had problems with RAID 5. Many years ago, we ran a hardware RAID 5 and it was really very slow. I eventually bought some extra drives and switched to RAID 0+1 with much greater results and comparable availability.

    I've been working with a partner company that is using Datomic to back a relatively impressive product - but I don't really see much written about it. What has been your experience?

    by jugg1es 6y ago

    yea there is zero justification in your blog - just references to pages describing the technology. I would be interested to know what the rational is.

    I love RabbitMQ but deploying/managing a cluster can be tricky. We had problems with network partitioning and since we didn't really need a cluster for performance reasons - only availability - we switched to a single node.

    draw.io (which is now app.diagrams.net) is all I've ever needed. I got my company to buy the Confluence plugin for it too. It's free to use by itself.

    I can't stress how important it is to get good at writing design documents and producing effective diagrams. If you do not produce these artifacts, it is very difficult for your developers to do what you want them to do. You end up s

    There is not one mention of full-time versus contract work. If he didn't control for that, this entire post is totally useless. Contractors charge a premium because they don't get other benefits, like healthcare.

    Yep, if you need aggregated data at all for operational purposes, Dynamo isn't a good choice. A lot of the hardship people have with Dynamo is not really understanding how to model their data correctly. If you don't design it co

    Once you get comfortable modeling your data in Dynamo, it becomes hard to justify using RDBMS with all of the overhead that goes along with it. Dynamo is not for every use case, of course, but as long as you design the table generically en

    Are you saying you might be interested to help? Huh, that is interesting - it hadn't occurred to me that other's would be interesting in assisting. I don't think we'd be able to work out the regulatory issues since we

    NAT gateways (a required component if you want real security) cost like $30/month each and you need at least 2 for HA.

    I think that this 'pre-wire' concept is one that humans abhor on some level because it reduces the feeling of autonomy (or free will). But we are biased against it to our peril. When we look around the animal kingdom, we are bom
