should is relative. I'm not sure I can agree that it's my responsibility to care how other people feel, or their responsibility to care how I feel. It's nice. And I'd hope that would be the default mode. But if you

They'd be a lot more useful if recipe sites would just let you flag reviewers who didn't follow the recipe though. I swear 75% of negative recipe reviews I've read go something like this: > I substituted the flour for corn

CouchDB doesn't do joins, which can impose serious schema design changes depending on your application. map/reduce is done at index time. You wouldn't ever want to do it on the fly. The base CouchDB also wasn't clustered

That sounds pretty fair. I think the RQL Builder issue is a bit bigger than that since it would make writing your own DSLs a bit more awkward, with more overhead. I think a simple published protocol would be the better alternative. But even

Just my take: I really don't like RQL. Why couldn't it just be a document flavored SQL? Having a DSL for writing in-database procedures is fine. But tying all external queries to a Builder is, from a purely aesthetic POV, pretty u

What did they learn? What did we learn? I learned they had an unfortunate power outage. Then it took about two hours to determine that the Redis servers weren't booting, and to failover. That's honestly pretty unimpressive no matt

Is there a timeline to how long it took them to figure out Redis was down? Because having experienced the same, you get an alert. Cool. HA-Proxy says app servers are down. Ok. You SSH in and see that everything looks ok but the processes ar

I can totally understand that. Feels a bit unfair to paint an entire platform with the same brush if you haven't tried the more modern alternatives though. This is a full HelloWorld web-server in Spray: http://scastie.org&#x

Ditto. Pretty sure having iCloud on is actually the default in the El Capitan (latest OSX) setup. It integrates really nicely to become the default document storage location for most (non-developer) apps as well. The only trouble I had was

Maybe not worth much, but the one Ember app I use routinely (that I'm aware of) is YNAB. The startup is slow, the payload obscenely large (over 3MB) for basically 2 different views, a handful of modals. It has odd UI issues occasionall

That... doesn't follow. What's to say you'll have salary transparency afterwards? Not you. You're merely speculating that they might be the "primary agent". Maybe there's a smoking gun I've missed. In
