It does not work entirely, it is unstable, it does not support X Y Z, it is harder to work with but it is LINUX!!@# Seriously though, if people think the the TCO of owning an IT infrastructure is equal to the price of the operating system t

Well I think we can ditch Java in favor of: Go, Erlang, Haskell, C++, Rust The reason for using Java is the corporate penetration and being the de-facto language for thousands of developers. I seriously think that Java as a language is old

The biggest shock for me when I moved to US was to get to know that my apartment complex has an exclusive contract with one cable company. I think they would be sued out of existence (both of them) in Europe for trying to do the same. Net n

I think first thing is to clarify why we have 8 hours work days. It is simply reflecting to the past when most of the workers worked in a factory. Several things changed in the last 50 years and nobody was revising these "standards&quo

I never said it was a magic bullet. What I am suggesting is to have separate services with independent software packages. This is all. Btw. you can't break a service with a commit, all the services are using versioned APIs so when you

It is so funny to see that somebody else got annoyed by Go the same way as I did. I could not get over the fact that I cant pass any type to a function other than interface{}. When you do that it just delays the problem and I have decided t

Hello there, have you heard of service oriented architecture? You must be joking to justify a single repository with "easier to change". Your problem is that the code base must be tightly coupled if splitting the services out to

If you think about it, these softwares the best attack surfaces for secret services. A prime example is the Google hack, when the hackers used Facebook as the attack vector.

There plans to rename the service Google- reflecting to the lack of interest of the public using the service even after forcing youtube users to have an account.

Most of the best features are in the paid version. I am leaning towards replacing Nginx with Haproxy for the reverse proxying part, unless they move at least the advanced load-balancing features to the free version.

The main force holding me back from learning Haskell is the cryptic syntax. I totally understand that the type system is (supposed to be) superior to other languages but it simply make it really hard to find the time. I am also unsure how u

POWER (Performance Optimization With Enhanced Risc) is an extremely nice architecture compare to the x86. It's firmware system was so ahead of the BIOS disaster (EFi might change this a bit, yet). I remember loading and booting kernels

Amazon Fire TV is just the perfect platform. Now with old and new HBO series you can literary watch anything you want, including good foreign movies, Hollywood crap. Not to mention the gaming capabilities of the device.

Semi sexist, greatly generalizing title. The sample used for the study covers only fraction of the entire data set so making this conclusion is very bold.

There are certain things that you can't really avoid using an interpreted language. How would you go around Ruby's GIL for example when you specifically need multiple threads (not talking about green threads). I agree that some of

Thank you for the detailed explanation. I think using these slim web frameworks makes it easy to refactor your code or swap out the framework. I agree with some of the points you raised, but at this stage Martini has some very crucial featu

Sorry for my ignorance, how is this different, better than Martini? What is the main goal of creating a new framework (instead of getting the features you are missing implemented in the currently existing ones)?

Well it is kind of obvious that a compiled language is going to be faster than an interpreted one, especially the way how these interpreters work ( https://wiki.python.org/moin/GlobalInterpreterLock ). You can fool yours
