The burden is falling on fair-weather states as the down-and-out from cold states find their way to coastal states to avoid freezing to death. There are plenty of empty houses in the rust belt. We need to find a way to get the homeless into

The "federated" reboot of C2 has been mostly a failure. Decentralization was a solution looking for a problem. I hope Ward reverts it back to normal. The real problem was bouncer management (riff-raff policing), something replicat

I'm glad to hear things look okay so far. It's a very complex beast, and if it deploys properly, will be a huge boon to science and exploration. Cross your fingers...

"Microservice" is inconsistently defined. One cannot accuse them of using a strawman definition if there is no realman.

You have to sprinkle some fads in, or else nobody will touch because it doesn't have enough resume-able buzzwords.

If you go with static languages you are pretty much stuck with Microsoft or Oracle, both which are ahole companies who cannot be trusted. There is no sufficiently common 3rd static option, at least not tied to Big Tech.

Those early in try to time it so they can liquidize and run before it collapses. They are hoping to earn a big profit by timing their exit.

IBM's earlier attempts didn't go well, walled gardens that were too expensive and difficult to repair in small shops, so they tried a different approach of outsourcing most of it.

The real world rarely sticks with nice hierarchies. Variations of set theory is more powerful, but would generally require merging RDBMS with IDE's, which does deserve more R&D. Using code to manage complex sets is limiting; query

Re: "Despite these reservations, It's Still an Excellent Operating System" They had to say that to avoid pissing off Microsoft too much. Don't bite the hand that feeds you. In general the changes are to push you toward

In general it seems MySql targets start-ups while PostgreSql targets more established companies and projects. It's not necessarily about good-vs-bad, but using the right tool for the job.

Basically it's saying the MySql code base is a mess. Maybe PostgreSql's codebase is also a mess. Without experience inside it, it's hard to really say. Anybody here worked at both for a good while? Most code bases are messes

The "network effect" seems to be affecting everything : The rich get richer, and everybody else fights for scraps. It's winner-take-all. This applies to countries also, not just individuals. If your country can't quite

No, the problem is rejecting experts in place of loud-mouthed pundits, who either make crap up or cherry-pick outlier expert viewpoints without telling you they are outliers or bringing in non-outliers to counter.
