True. Microservice people would reply that microservice enforce modularization (as remote address spaces do not allow for dirty shortcuts). However that argument seems to me like drilling out a spark plug to help yourself with speed limits.

Does this headline sound confusing only to non-native speakers like me? 1. "to warn someone to avoid something" sounds like "to urge someone to do that something" to me. 2. Should sci-hub be referred to as a "scienc

Maybe I do not get your point but I have a complete opposite opinion. If you do not know about your clients' queries, you are better off with SQL since it enables clients to query exactly the data they need. If you know about future qu

Could you elaborate on that? How can future transactions be accommodated if everyone stops mining new blocks?

Level 2: Can you do it without building / testing every now and then? Level 3: Can you do it without syntax checking, IntelliSense, etc.? Level 4: What about removing DEL and BACKSPACE?

According to this definition, C is an interpreted language because "there is" CINT. [1] [1] https://web.archive.org/web/20190911160010/http://www.hanno....

Same for Maven. Common reason: the mere presence of a "leftover after refactoring" file beneath target/ breaks the build because it is still included in the classpath.

GraphQL vs. REST somewhat resembles SQL vs. (document-oriented) NoSQL. If you can agree with your clients on certain access patterns (queries), you can design your RESTful API and your database collections, respectively, to suit these. If c

Would that work with an object of the size and mass of, say, a mother in law? Just curious...

In German, "Entwickler" (developer) seems to be most common. Avoid everything with "code" particularly if your, say, aunt asks what you do for a living because code sounds like "Kot" which translates to "s

I think there are some similarities between a "GraphQL vs REST" tradeoff and a "SQL vs NoSQL" one. As a rule of thumb I would use a GraphQL API if I (as a server developer) don't know my clients and their API access

Yes, software is immaterial and thus not constrained by laws of physic (except speed of light). It is comparably easy to change but also comparably hard to specify and model in advance.
