I didn't have problem with MacBook Pro 2017 keyboard regarding dust. My major problem is, it is noisy. Using it in library is a huge hassle. It totally disturbs everyone around me.

Am I mistaken or it seems to me that promoting a slave to a master is kind of fragile operation(detecting that it did really fail). I mean there are more robust methods: 1. There is a bookkeeper cluster providing replicated log. (No Kafka!

Is there any reason why memcahced/redis doesn't provide external store as an interface and let people implement the load/store operations? I would like to be able to implement hierarchy of "hot(RAM) -> warm(NVM) ->

I do agree. But the trend/courage should be toward informative programming (how OS works, how DB works, how file systems works, ...). What we see now is exactly the opposite. Programmers are becoming more ignorant day after day. Even w

Exactly this. This is an interminable stupid loop. 1. People want their own house, 2 cars, .... 2. So they work more, to earn more. 3. In some cases you need to study more, to get better job. 4. Women also get involved in this shitty loop.

We are facing two issues: 1. Privacy against advertisers 2. Privacy against security agencies. From my perspective, first issue, is more important than second one. I think Apple does pretty decent job regarding first issue. MS holds second

Why is everyone doing business with a black and white strategy? On one extreme, everything is free and funded by selling user information and on the other extreme, everthing is free but funded by donation. What is wrong with 2$/year mo

The problem is greedy attitude of people. As long as one can earn more by selling user information, there is no incentive for reasonably priced subscription model.

> Most subscription software is a terrible deal in comparison. This is actually my way of making decision to buy a subscription-based product. It must provide comparable service. Office 365 single user license costs around 70$/year.

I don't have problem if a company collects usage information. End of the day, they need it to improve the product. But for fuck's sake, DON'T sell it to others to increase revenue. Just use it for product development.

Why? Even writing micro service in C++ is dead simple these days: 1. write the service specification in Thrift. 2. Generate the server and client stub with the framework. 3. Write the service functions. 4. Most probably you'd need to i
