   "Reward" doesn't always equal money. Yes, of course, receiving money for what one does allows comfortable living, but there are plenty of professions and things people do that are not centered around accumulating money.

   Think AR applications. Anything that requires accuracy that is not a "Pokemon Go" game would need that.

   Thank you. We have been using glusterfs since we found those tutorials sometime back. I wish the default "getting started with docker" tutorial included this :-/

   I am not debating whether you should or should not store files on S3. I can see use cases for both using S3 (or some alternate storage). My point is that - even in the case for django configured with S3 in this docker tutorial, there is abs

   Glad to see more articles like this. I find tons of writings about stateless containers, but hardly any about best practices for stateful containers. Just yesterday I was going over the Django tutorial in the official Docker docs. Everythin

    The nightmare comes when you mix it with proprietary datasets that you license from somebody else. Many companies right now are doing that and it is dubious grounds to stand on.

    Clearly this is super cool. It is also a legal licensing nightmare since it takes "derived product" to a new level...

    This is very cool... but also, kind of a bit late. The market already adopted git and the momentum is there. Unless there is a trivial way to switch back and forth from git or there is something that is orders of magnitude better, this is a

    Put a database behind it with complicated enough requests, and you'll run out of connections to the db regardless if you have async io. You'll have to add a connection pooler or multiple master/slave dbs - and even then you w

    That was the best and easiest-to-follow overview I have seen of a quantum computing architecture. You clearly have a talent to explain complex concepts in a way that anybody with a CS undergrad background could understand. Thank you! Do you

    > What open source libraries are supported on a OS don't have anything to do with first class support. Under your definition that is not true. Under mine , the ecosystem of libraries you can use on that platform is a key factor.

    I have been developing code for 20 years using C/C++ - it sounds like you have been doing this even longer. I think it is completely unfair that you simply dismiss and blame the libraries "because the developers did not care and w

    Although I agree with most of the comments you said, I have to strongly disagree with "First class C++ support of Windows Mobile" when compared to iOS (or even Android). I have an entire non trial stack of C/C++ libraries tha

    After most compilers started properly supporting the newer C++ standards, it seems there has been an increase in the amount of love that C++ libraries are getting. A lot of people like the to say that [x] is superior to C or C++ - often ign

    I second this encouragement strongly. Some of my favorite open source projects started with people telling the author "don't be stupid, why would you try to build [x] when there is [y] and you definitely don't understand the

    We do ton of govt work for state agencies, transportation agencies, local govt, etc. That price is messed up.

    I thought it was a funny joke - I was curious how far they took it. Wholy crap, `telnet telnet.wmflabs.org` works and the searches do too. Nice job :)
