   I have to say, I'm more interested in the job titles of the majority of the commenters on this article. So LinkedIn is only full of managers, consultants and recruiters.

   Because you won't consume it in less than a day. For the present time, 1TB is enough for almost all home users. As history has shown us, these limits will increase as demand does. And iiNet overage at $0.10/GB is pretty favourable as well…

   If you ignore the fact that these aren't actually static objects and require a lot more computation to work out where they are and where they need to go. 1.1M RPS is the amount they actually serve, not how much they can serve. Just becaus

   You may be surprised and you won't know until you ask. Where do you think the largest cost in an app like this comes from? Especially the onsite installed version? It's in support of the users. Just name your budget to them and see if they

   Have you thought about contacting them and asking for a discount for volume? Their enterprise pricing is probably designed for under a 100 employees. No one is going to make you commit to a contract or bite your hand off if you ask them if

    Just contact them. They aren't going to bite you or bill you because you enquire about a bigger plan?

    An interesting dissection. I need to implement something like this that's a bit simpler than most of the very heavy JS libraries.

    Agreed. I experienced a big. Bug the other day that appeared like it deleted all my notes on my iPad and online and this caused me to finally bite-the-bullet and move my notes to Evernote from my offline iPhone for fear of never being able

    And what would happen in the original? People have a tendency to believe what the comment says, even when the code says something completely different. It's easy to say that you would update both the comment and the value at the same time.

    I agree, performance optimisations like this definitely require significant documentation. However, for what most of us do, these optimisations should be rare. More emphasis should be placed on code maintainability than performance of indiv

    Comments prove that naming is hard. If we as developers spent more time on using better names for our objects/methods, we would need less comments.

    3 & 4 are really the only two valid reasons to use comments, in my opinion. 1 & 2 are both better solved with method abstraction. Comments describing what code is doing is always a code-smell to me. If you have 20 lines of code that

    Given the massive increase in productivity any SSD provides over mechanical drives ~$250 is more than worth the price if you don't already have an SSD.
