It doesn't matter for webapps. At all. Further, they don't understand the defaults the JVM uses for maximum throughput. It uses most of your memory on purpose as it expects it is the only process running on your server. Generally

I agree. EpicGames and to some extent Github is at fault here.

If I would write it in C/C++, I would instead write it in Rust. Otherwise I would pick something more appropriate for the job. As far as performance, Java and Rust are neck and neck getting their asses kicked by Javascript (for web app

Kind of but less transliteration and more in the natural style of the target language.

100% agree. It drives me nuts when people use the wrong tool for the job.

All of the languages now have that trash in them. I'd like a "naive" benchmarks game where you write the code straight forwardly in a normal style for the language.

Ah, I see. Bummer. Even if it had a set if not exists you would still need a transaction for it.

SADD wouldn't need a round trip since it is idempotent. You would just do a blind set which doesn't even require a transaction in FDB. Likewise, most of the other ones can be reframed / designed to not require round trips. I

I'd say using io-uring is an example of modern since it has only been available since 5.10 of the kernel. They also sit on some more recent research on data structures that perform well in multithreaded systems. https://gith

FDB also supports some atomic operations that may decrease the number of roundtrips and remove conflicts: https://apple.github.io/foundationdb/api-python.html#api-pyt... That said, I still don't think that it is n

I think that productivity per actual second worked has drastically increased and people just don't work as much as they used to, at least in office jobs.

Isn't the point of a stable coin is that it is always worth $1 each? So market cap is a valuation of $1 * total coins has gone down by $10B. So that means 10B coins were redeemed.

It isn't being trained on test. Kind of the point of memory is that you can change the memory at will and don't need to train on new information you have never seen before.

Ah, I misunderstood what you meant. If you are reporting static buckets I get how that is better than what folks typically do but how do you know the buckets a priori? Others back their histograms with things like https://github.

Much different. When you are reporting histograms you can combine them and see the true p50 or whatever across all the individual systems reporting the metric.

Wavefront also has histogram ingestion (I wrote the original implementation, I'm sure it is much better now). Hugely important if you ask me but honestly I don't think that many customers use it.

If you think that sounds bad, I would love to see what you think is good and show your work then they can just add it to one of the options. It does basically all the tricks in the article and then some. This is a mean, not a median. The me
