Teaching is a straw man. Teachers get paid poorly because (1) Americans don’t actually care about education, as evidenced by the amount teachers make, and (2) it’s a government-based monopoly that prioritizes “benefits” and graft (tenure, e

Poor people could do well in America if they made economic decisions that led to them accumulating wealth.

As zenpsycho said, all you get is eventual consistency across aggregates, if you’re talking about projection aggregates. As you say, for domain aggregates you can wire up transactions by writing your own 2PC on top of Kafka exactly once sem

Event sourcing is REALLY hard to figure out how to do “right.” A lot of getting it right is modeling knowledge/experience, understanding your domain. That said, you can succeed at building your entire arch around it and once you do, it

The “privileges” you earn on there are comical. I can moderate your site more now? Thanks!!!

Yes, I agree it is inane. I think he’s trying to set up a vibe wherein this whole thing is separate from the “Mac people” scene. Doesn’t that make sense? The author is trying to establish his or her audience. He does this snidely, but I thi

Probably because it’s much easier to post pictures on Instagram than to be a sysadmin? Or requires different hardware (in the author’s opinion, anyway, not mine, I don’t get why you need any of this to admin a system). Do you think that bei

I’m not a legal person or a supporter of Oracle but intuitively I’ve always felt their side of the story. The Java APIs are interfaces, but they’re the result of tons of work which Oracle bought, and it doesn’t make sense to me why those in

Thanks. So in OCaml/Haskell you can write perfectly sound programs?

How is this wrong? Is WeWork publicly funded? Either way, is he withholding his status as landlord from investors? How is this even a conflict of interest? This sounds like a normal real estate deal: sale-leaseback to a management company.

Add me to this list. Just spent a week with a 2018 MBP and grew to love the keyboard. The keys are bigger and something about the feel makes it easier to type. I got use to it in an hour. Looking forward to getting one myself.

Kind of feels like the author doesn’t know kubernetes? Stateful sets make all this very easy. I only have a user-end knowledge of k8s from GCE and it seems like k8s makes storage very easy. EDIT K8s makes storage very easy. No “seems.”

Serious question, why do people use GoDaddy? What does it have to offer in terms of price/features/anything that’s better than any other provider?

Well what are your answers to these objections? Find me real estate developers who really want to build mixed income or affordable housing. They don’t exist in my experience in the industry. The lenders want huge upsides, the developers wan

I should have said “much of government.”

by linkmotif 8y ago
Because most of the government is a waste of money and exists merely to perpetuate itself. The fact that it just shuts down sometimes is a great indicator of just that. It’s an entity that is accountable to nobody because no matter how well

I finally installed ALE in Vim this summer and have been so happy with it: https://github.com/w0rp/ale . Great even for linters for JS. Always much easier than expected. Shouldn’t have waited so long...

Thanks for the recommendation. Not seeing anything on there suggesting they provide quiet places to work.
