Well, you would pay for the full hour regardless of how long the machines were up. GCP would give you too the minute pricing however. But your right, even a full hour is really cheap

Does the replication work cross-region, say US-East and US-West? or even cross continent? It sounds like the timing requires very short latency and might not work in these scenarios

Totally disagree with the premise of the article. Every metric tool that i know of that shows cpu utilization correctly shows cpu work. Load on the other hand represents cpu and iowait (overall system throughput). Io wait is also exposed in

The argument about why slack doesn't work well is a bit of a stretch. I understand all the points on closed system etc. But the author states that slack doesn't work because it's synchronous and it excludes others from partic

Asyncio does not use callbacks. It uses async/await syntax

I love Firefox's keywords for bookmarks. I can type `gh` and be taken to GitHub, or `dh` for dockerhub, etc. Chrome can only do this for searching, not generic bookmarks. It basically is like a shell alias for all my favorite websites.

Am I the only one who thought this article was going to be about an ISP startup because of the title, and was disappointed when it wasn't?

This is probably the least "shiny" thing AWS has announced, but to me it's the biggest one yet. I can finally have a single LB for all of prod. This is probably the first thing they've announced that I will be using on d

I think your misunderstanding the tone of the article. I mention how the bottleneck is usually not the language. It IS important to optimize, but its important to understand where the real issue is. I later explain that things have to be on

In no ways am I saying Python is the only solution. Moreso that Python is A solution. Sure, other languages and things exist. After all, no silver bullet. Also, you are saying that google hit a scale where it really WAS expensive to use pyt

> if things we write can't be as performant as we like, we'll use a different language I think you are referring to the fact that devs LIKE speed. And they want things to be fast. I mean, your right. We like speed. Probably a l

Maybe I'm daft, but I don't quite understand what your getting at.

Ya, I guess the title is slightly misleading. But the point is that speed isnt everything. I will still use Python regardless of it being slow. That being said, Python3 is actually faster than python2 for most things, IIRC

The article says he doesn't buy that Java is slow. But the JVM is a JIT with a pretty significant warm-up time. Its designed for long running processes, and if you only doing things that are running for a couple seconds, then yes, Java

All these features are pretty cool, but why can I still not dock the dev tools? Developers are the most likely early adopters, like myself. But not being able to dock the dev tools is seriously a killer. I've been watching Vivaldi from

Personally, I am glad I went a year early. It means I started college a year early, and was ahead of all my peers by that point in time. I pushed hard in school, and I finished and entered the work force really early, jump-starting my caree

I use this (well, the equivalent for FF), and it's great, but it doesn't work for every site or button. There are a lot of js buttons that don't get link anchors when you press f. So navigating is still something not possible

Not exactly. I worked at Amazon back when code piplelines/ecs came out. What happens at Amazon is that they have a system in place, but it's very specific to amazon tools, and dependent on so many things. So they take they idea an
