If you can afford a $30,000 medium format camera, you can afford the Xeon workstation it usually needs. The kind of person that work with those systems would pay $6,000 for an umbrella that doesn't even have any electronics in it: ht

The Mac Pro design itself is great - Xeon CPU, dual GPUs, infinite storage expandability via Thunderbolt 2.. the problem is that they never upgraded it. The GPU is 4 years old now, for example.

How many requests-per-second are you getting right now? What's the CPU utilization like with this level of usage? What's the back-end stack? What's the normal latency like? I'm just wondering why it would go down due to

I can confirm. Growing up in the south, as a non-white, it's not if you've been mistreated, but how many times PER DAY. Your identity is that of an outsider. You're not part of the white culture. It's so common that it

Aren't SQL subqueries pretty much standard across all databases anyways? Why would writing them in Django's ORM be more compatible?

by mozumder 10y ago
Subquery expressions looks like it would be just easier to write SQL, instead of going through the Django ORM. This is where SQL starts to show its expressive strength over ORMs.

Well, for something like this, the President would probably be elected by the elected cabinet members, sorta like a parliamentary system for the executive branch.
