This may or may not be true; afaik >50% soy plantation in the world is for cattle, and humans can eat soy; probably don't need that much soy. Even if we cannot use the resources, the land would be better without pasture for sure. An

That's just not true. I googled for lots of different sites, all of them say that, for example, 100g of beans have around 40g of protein. Then you have other vegetables with lots of protein too. More than the daily recommended dose.

Depends if its senior with a specific technology (ex: senior rails programmer) or generally senior programmer. I consider senior someone who: - knows how to mentor juniors - knows his way around tech, even if he never used a particular prod

That didnt' seem that it was a minor outage. Anyway, these things apparently happen even without microservices or kubernetes. Time will tell.

Geez, all the haters here. I would argue that as long as you don't actually lose any customer's money, its OK to screw up once in a while. My e-bank site its down once a week for deploys or so, my bank's mobile app didn'

I'm guessing it is easier to optimize via imperative way than functional. Although you can optimize functional libs up to a point, I say that people with enough time and dedication will probably optimize better with imperative paradigm

Thats all fine and dandy, but if it was your kid being detained (or yourself), wouldn't you like a passerby to check on you? It's not being coward, it's being shortsighted.

I would recommend first of all that you get familiar with the names and versioning. Hadoop is a mess, and its basically a family of big data projects. You have two/three main components in hadoop: - Data nodes that constitute HDFS. HDF

I know this is HN and all, but do we need to provide references, links, papers and medical proofs about every single statement? I dont think it would add much to the discussion.

Great and honest post. I hope people pay more attention to these topics that apparently are not tech-centric, but imho it's where the tech stuff actually comes forth. Although I can't say that I agree with all, I can surely identi

If the managers fail to see advantages of testing approaches, that normally means they are not mature enough to understand the cost of defects. Most of our process/engineering effort is to prevent defects from happening as soon as poss

You're missing the point. Cognitive dissonance is only to point that people are not entirely rational. For most people I know, they are vegetarian or vegan because of ethics, not to be more rational with their choices. If there are any

I think you best learn these concepts from a competent teacher, preferably someone who walks the walk, and by putting them in practice, not by reading lots and lots of books with zero practice. Besides, what the author doesn't know is

Imho agile has a few points that everyone hits, sooner or later. Agile is about finding flaws and managing in a way that's beneficial for the product being developed. A corollary is that it should lead to a better process, thus leaving

You seem like a smart fellow. Problem with emotions is that sometimes they doesn't seem so rational - its hard to figure out whats going on with us. I would strongly suggest you lean on someone (friends, family, professional, a suport

There's also Presto from fb, and Apache Drill. Phoenix seems to be on top of Hbase, which is more funkier that plain HDFS + SQL engine. Besides, right now there's a huge need for analytical engines on top of HDFS (data lake or wha
