I don't think you qualify as famous in the sense pg uses the word. You're well known and highly regarded in some circles, but that's really different to how people think/feel about Travis, Eric Schmidt, Elon, SamA, etc.

Fortunately ESP32 does have an OS, so you can use all kinds of niceties (multitasking, bootloader, etc.).

> Why use RabbitMQ and Kafka if you can use ZeroMQ? They are totally different, you're comparing apples with oranges. ZeroMQ gives you basic, very fast tooling to communicate between distributed processes. ZeroMQ does not provide to

Kafka is primarily designed for streaming, pulsar is both for streaming and queueing. Firebase is a completely different animal.

Very different. Pulsar is primarily a Kafka competitor. - it is much more performant than RabbitMQ - it's a commit log as well, not just a pub-sub system, ie. it is a good candidate as the storage backend for event sourcing - it suppor

Generally UI is smoother on Windows due to the really mature desktop compositor that's light-years ahead of eg. Xorg. WDDM is actually a very good display driver model, UI crashes are really rare nowadays compared to eg. Linux (and thi

Opening many small files. That's a design decision by the way - opening a file on NTFS involves a whole bunch of stuff like letting "filters" to be injected between the program and the OS. This is what makes virus scanners an

Correct. Most people misunderstand this and think that hardware accelerated drawing is all what they need, but there's another element: decoding. No browsers support (officially) hw-accelerated video decoding on Linux. Compare CPU usag

Scrum is not about context. You might or might not have context with or without scrum. Agile development doesn't work without context anyway.

We still don't have fully hardware accelerated video playback in browsers under Linux. To check this, watch a 4K video in the browser and look at the CPU usage. Edit: I can block ads in various ways (pi.hole, etc.) but I can't fix

Docker images are layered, so this isn't a problem in most cases.

I think this is a particularly bad way of dealing with problems. We have trials, laws and regulations for a reason; causing permanent effects on people's lives based on a single article is wrong in my opinion. I'm saying this whil

Push is not always more efficient than pull. Pull puts a lower limit on traffic but it also puts an upper limit on it, plus you get an extra health check. That's why many monitoring tools are now pull-based (Prometheus) instead of push

He was joking, as if you'd be a professional F1 pilot and when testing a new car you would say "I suck at driving but this thing loses grip in the corners".

JVM startup is sub-second. Still not great for e.g. small command line utilities, but completely fine otherwise.

These are all present (in one way or another) in many cars that don't drive themselves otherwise. (They're not that great at the moment, but these are part of accident avoidance, not self driving.)

My recommendation: rocking kneeling chair. RSI can be addressed with different keyboards sometimes, but as with many other injuries sometimes the root cause is somewhere else, not where you feel the pain. So if your wrists hurt, don't

That's completely fine given that the important state is on volumes (named, persistent, bind mounted, whatever).
