I am still kind of surprised Microsoft has not switched to the Linux kernel yet. Not much else has surprised me. I have been programming full time since the 80s. Still using vi with a shell when I need to get stuff done quickly. My own use

They obviously don't have the transaction semantics worked out. I have been at the gate and the person in front of me had the same seat number. They read it out. When I presented my pass the girl politely took my ticket and printed ano

It is funny, every time I have used beanstalk over the years I have put it in thinking I'll replace it later. I never have. Multiple startups I have left years ago are still running it, untouched years later. No one mentions it probabl

If you want to use transactions for multi table updates you are probably best to use a proper rdbms. Not to mention read consistency. If you only have one table Redis may be fine. I usually find my work grows beyond one table. Redis does ma

Skype at its peak used a postgres queue extension, pgqueue, at its core. Seemed to go OK for them. The extension did work around some limitations when running a pure sql queue in postgres. These days I would run Pulsar but if you only have

Harder than in the past. Look at it another way, some time in the past using just a password would have been considered 'good'. Now, using just a password is not considered 'good' in many domains, not my mum's compu

Same here in regards to liking RabbitMQ until you need to scale it. I wasted a huge amount of time years ago trying to build a HA cluster that worked when you hit it with a load. What didn't help was the pika python client had so many

For such a long article it's (IMHO) a fairly naive view. Sure insurance companies make some profit, specially in the beginning but, eventually, the price gets higher and higher and the cost to secure becomes less than the cost of insur

If you replace 'academic' with the secondary definition: "not of practical relevance; of only theoretical interest." it is probably true though. Having known some of the C++ standard contributors, they strongly defend th

This is not true. You see 'best practise' even in formally proven areas. This is because a formal proof does not mean there are not compromises when applied to the real world . What is the best sort? It depends on the size data y
