I think this depends entirely on the value you're getting from it - as with everything in IT.

It is really way more than a 'table' as a service if you design it right. It is actually your entire database as a service if done right. AWS actually has some great documentation in this regard.

I built a pseudo-graph database for relational data for my company on DynamoDB that has been really amazing in both performance and utility. The data model is defined entirely by configuration, so adding use cases is just modifying the conf

yea, the worst part is that the mistake isn't often realized until after the initial implementation is complete and it's time to iterate. The barrier to entry is very low so people don't bother taking the time to understand

Dynamo is indeed a very powerful tool for specific use cases. A total heartbreak if the developer doesn't understand how/when to use it.

do you mean PascalCase?

My bachelor's degree is in neurobiology and it would have been very interesting if this was reproducible in other people. Experiencing physical pain from visual stimuli (stimuli unrelated to light intensity, at least) is not something

Can I please forward your contact info to my developer? Maybe you can do a better job convincing him haha ;)

But that's what some people are doing - they take this book as the programming bible.

Finally! I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one. I've gone against 'Clean Code' zealots that end up writing painfully warped abstractions in the effort to adhere to what is in this book. It's OK to duplicate c

Love the idea. Does this use any sort of checksum to protect the clients from potential attacks to your system? I'd feel uncomfortable using this without security being a primary thing featured on the website and explained in detail.

Definitely not a thankless job!

I have a story similar to many of the others here. Mine was in the mid 90s when a kid could make good money developing websites. The hardest part was the client interactions, which is not something a 14 year old is particularly good at. Bu

Your job is very different than mine. Gaming/graphics are their own domain with different priorities. When your goal is to process data on the scale of several seconds, readability matters more. When your goal is performance per fra

Huge difference between naturally occurring (mildly radioactive but not explosive) uranium and highly-enriched uranium (highly radioactive and potentially explosive) this article makes no distinction.

This is a pretty amazing analysis that answers questions we probably all had as newbie programmers before realizing that code readability mattered more than efficiency 99.9% of the time.

As someone who came of age during the 90s, I am amazed at how little this story matters in terms of real-world impact now.

Both simple box+line diagrams and sequence diagrams are entirely dependent on the creator's skill at creating diagrams. I've seen plenty of confusing sequence diagrams. I guess it also depends on whether your team find it useful

Nothing is stopping you from creating diagrams, but UML is not required to create useful diagrams. Most concepts can be diagrammed using only boxes and lines.

Why sad? Passphrases are great. For example: thisisnotapassphrase is a great passphrase. Inaccurate and hard to guess!

My company adopted 'passphrases' and we no longer have to change it much at all anymore and my life is that much better for it. Thanks Microsoft!

I'm not sure it is physically possible for a human to strum only one direction on some of those songs on 'expert'. Our muscles just don't twitch that fast more than a few times in a row.

DJ hero ended up sitting in my closet. It just wasn't nearly as fun to play as the guitar was. The game itself was good but the hardware didn't do it for me.

by jugg1es 5y ago
What a crazy project. I love that you went all the way with it using the actual guitar. I would think you could have just reverse engineered the guitar signals but then it wouldn't be a robot.

I wouldn't do that either, but it's even less secure than that because the software would have credentials to the source control system. It also means your source control system has to be public.

I always thought of CI to be a build server that pushes code directly to production automatically. I never liked how CI does away with the concept of a 'release' with a specific version. To me CI is synonymous with SaaS products

Forgive me, but it sounds dangerous and insecure to give your software the kind of access that would be required to do what you described. Even with safety measures and auditing in place, I'm not sure if I would feel comfortable doing

"But they struggle to make simple causal inferences like the ones we just saw in the baseball video above." Isn't this the difference between our sticks-and-stones machine learning and a true general AI?

youtube should make an exception for this video so that it doesn't show ads when you visit from an external referral. Ads really ruin a good rickroll.
