"switch expressions", "text blocks". I haven't used Java for 15 years but it's one of the most mature languages out there. I'm surprised it's only just getting these pretty standard features now.

Blockchain can be useful outside of crypto, or even leveraging crypto for anything that needs trust. Example: you might take a fingerprint of a recorded interview and save that to a block chain. When you distribute the interview the receive

I think you're being downvoted because you're implying monoliths don't require an engineering culture and that microservices are a silver bullet in getting systems built correctly. I've seen good and bad in each approach

this just sounds like eventual consistency which can form part of a perfectly optimal design

One great thing about not enforcing FKs is that it makes integration testing a lot easier. You can load just the data you need to test with, and none of the FKs need to point to rows that exist that aren't within the testing scope. Thi

This was a great read, thanks. I've used svelte for one site that ended up being a good fit. Ended up using Sapper to build out the static site and was pretty impressed with the load times

I've used Jenkins in a few places, right back from when it was Hudson. Back then I was amazed at the concept of CI in general so it was pretty great. Over the years I've worked with most of the major players, most recently Gitlab

I find it sadly ironic that the industry that's responsible for most emissions and actively influences political position in this country to put profit before the environment is the one that this zero emissions car is being targeted at

Try just getting a traditional "Kopi C" with some Kaya toast, that's probably your sugar needs for a day. Then add in the sugar-water soaked fruity, plus the added sugar in most hawker food and you're not exactly on a st

Wouldn't it be better to do the calc in your app and save it to the db? Best of both worlds

Enums and string literals aren't completely interchangable. Enums are transpired to objects so you can iterate the keys/values. You can't do that with SL which are a transpiler feature only. Also you can't codedoc string

As a developer I always hated this feature in other rdbms. The idea of your app saving a row and retrieving it only to have more data in it. IMO these types of calcs are better done in your app, where you can at least write a test and asser

It's probably to do with google's algo that favours a certain content-to-image ratio. Medium gives the author access to easily embeddable images that often have nothing to do with the article just so the article's not just on

Event modeling and domain driven design go hand-in-hand, and learning both was a huge turning point in my development career. It helps align software to the business, and technical to non technical staff in a way where everyone speaks the s

Since most other cultures in the world figured out the whole don't murder and rape thing, I wouldn't say the Catholic church is the common denominator.

I've been a dev for about as long as you were and keep flirting with the idea of moving into a dedicated SA space. How do you feel about the current trend towards togaf and ITIL? Are the useful, useless, good to cherry pick? Also did y

I've found that DDD and a read/write separation of concerns simplifies things greatly. On the write side, the ORM just returns an aggregate, usually based on the PK of the root. Thats's trivial for any ORM. On the read side,

When I worked in Singapore, it was heartbreaking to see how the elderly were forced to take low paying positions clearing tables and being servers at McDonald's. Not because it's "bad" work or anything, but because in th

It's sad to see this approach being pushed so hard these days. I believe AWS recommends these things so your app becomes so deeply entrenched in all of their services that you've locked yourself into them forever. Unfortunately I

Is dynamo affordable yet? When I did my AWS certs a few years ago they seemed to be pushing it hard for almost every data persistence use case that was non-relational. In practice the throughput provisioning meant that you knew exactly what

In the last few years I've reached zen with keyboard comfort. The 2 biggest changes have been: 1. Get the flattest, lowest keyboard you can. I use an external Mac keyboard and keep it flat to the desk. 2. Move the keyboard as far away

But the large majority doesn't know any better. I'd argue very few voters understand what's going on, or even what the policies of their chosen party had to offer. I mean, liberals had barely any policies and they won off a f

Interesting since the government is in the pocket of the Murdoch empire. Since the blood letting of news and media started well over a decade ago, it's never found a way to catch up to the new world of tech giants controlling what peop
