Very impressive work! Funny thing though, I recently implemented a zoomable line chart with D3.js, and I also use double click to reset the zoom :)

There is no such thing that raw/vanilla js is unmaintable, what is unmaintainable is stuff that breaks regulary and vanilla/raw js never(almost?) breaks.

I use the levenshtein distance for NLP data cleaning/spell correction. I also use a bloom filter that can validate if the word does not exists in my corpus, so I don't have to run the algorithm for every word.

I have 3-4 files side by side, Everything else is max 80 chars. I really don't understand why people need more, because long lines are REALLY HARD to read.

I would love to see benchmarks with Clickhouse which scales much better than regular SQL databases on a single machine.

On Ebay you can grab a Dell R210 II with 1240v2 CPU for 150-200 USD, it is quiet, idles at 20 watt, 80 watt at full load and plenty of power. If you need more cores, the Xeon D is another great alternative but costs a lot more.

Yes one time, I joined a startup that was 3 months old that had used MySQL, a lot of the queries had manual joins that could be solved with CTE/recursion. We also had good use for function indexes, partial indexes, materialized views.

No, its not for the UX, but for tracking you in every way as precise as possible. Second, most of you is not Facebook or Google either and have no need for additional complexity. Third, a strategy some of the big companies do to slow down s

My daughter who is now 9 years old is just as excited as I was at that age when it comes to computers. We play with Microbit, Raspberry Pi and of course Minecraft. We also play code combat together, which is really an amazing and fun way to

I got a PS4 for last christmas with The Last of Us. What a game, really good story telling. The game is over 5 years old and even today with a lot of great games, this is one of my all time favorites ever.

Would ZFS snapshots work? It is what I use to backup PostgreSQL, much easier and faster than ordinary backup

You really do not want RJ45 / 10GBase-T for higher network speeds. They consume A LOT more power and has significantly higher latency than SFP+/SFP28 and fiber cables. I have a Brocade ICX 6450 with 4 10G ports in my homelab, repl

FTS in PostgreSQL is pretty good, except for missing rank algorithms like tf-idf.

Me and an earlier colleague had the same fight, that he could rewrite my 10000 lines of vanilla JavaScript code for interactive UI with less code and less bugs if it was written in React. The React infrastructure ended up with more than 100

I am also a classic web developer, still using vanilla javascript and trying to do as much as possible with just html and css. I feel I can solve any problem fast, quick and with minimal amount of code and bugs. For the recent years I have

I have used Grails since version 0.42 and I am a bit surprised to hear that the documentation has been incomplete. I have always found it very detailed, though sometimes lacking clarity as any framework documentation would have. Since the e

I love Rails vision about how to do full stack web development. It is a really good abstraction, that hides unnecessary technical complexity and lets you focus on solving business problems. A lot of people here complains about Rails perform

You are right, but still using an operating system with such large attack surface like Windows is a worldwide industry problem. No one is saying Linux is much better either, but there are other solutions like IncludeOS( http://www

Everywhere? Google Trends says Groovy is just as popular as it was 10 years ago. The number of downloads has increased significantly but it is not because of Gradle, as Gradle bundles Groovy. It is also currently placed #16. on TIOBE Index

Groovy with static compilation is very fast and memory efficient. In most cases it is equal to Java. Though you are supposed to use Java and Groovy together for maximum performance and developer productivity. Groovy is not a replacement for

I don't understand how Groovy is fading away when it is getting more and more popular. Groovy is also very similar to Java. There is no learning curve, you are immediately creating value.

I do understand why you feel like that, I've been there too. No framework is a silver bullet, but over time you will see the value in them. One thing though, with Groovy you can choose between dynamic and static typing. These days ever

I use Grails which is very similar to Rails and a lot easier and productive than Spring Boot. Good defaults makes application building a much smoother experience. Grails is still Spring Boot, and you can still code like it was a pure Spring

Question, can I checkout the code from Github and build it with ./gradlew assemble as Apache License 2 or do I need to delete some modules before doing that?

Try Micronaut, which is a micro framework specifically designed for superfast startup time and low memory footprint. It also works with GraalVM.

This is kinda funny, our main competitor(another startup) within the chatbot domain started without using any kind of machine learning. The chatbot just weighted keywords to predict the intent. They won some major contracts, but never got t

Using jQuery is not a career hazard, the web is html, css and javascript. I don't tell my clients that I do React, I tell them that I solve their business problems.
