This [1] could be a solution to most of author’s problem. Simple to use / few moving parts, very high perf, native HTTP produce and consume, clear and simple processing model with strong guarantees, among other things. [1] https:&#x2F

200 looks perfectly valid. Any HTTP response can be interrupted at any time by any error down the stack (app crashing, server, VM, network etc). 200 does not a guarantee complete delivery.

With a friend we’ve built this [1]. Usability has been our main focus, though we ended up having very good perfs (millions of mps out of the box, usually 2x to 10x kafka). We provide REST and WebSocket APIs, + a simple to implement binary p

This site [1] allows you to get their real time global feed if you push your local feed in exchange. AFAIR equipment costs a few hundred bucks tops. I think other sites like [2] offer to provide a base station. Not sure what data and licens

Hi Alexander ! I'm a big fan of the work you do at vectorizedio and of your blog posts ! I strongly believe there's a need for much simpler event streaming and room for improvement performance-wise. I took a different path by divo

I’m trying to take a similar path with this project [1] though there’s no HA story for now and it’s not meant to be protocol-compatible. The goal is to make it lightweight and simple to operate, yet very fast. [1] https://github.

I’d say life is defined by identity (a bunch of information defining a structure), or a self, and the processes that allow this self to stay identical to itself in time. Something like homeostasis at the organism level. #1 and #2 would be

I’m really sad to see this kind of tone more and more in HN comments...

You improving has no predictive power about somebody else improving. That’s the problem. Limited usefulness VS an effective drug.

Exactly what I thought. It can alleviate the need to use flaky Kafka clients in some languages, but kind of disappointing in that it doesn't soften the main pain point of Kafka: operational and cognitive load.

Of stereo tracks L and R, you invert R and add it to L, effectively canceling anything centered. This usually removes voices. If you subtract (invert then add) the result from the original L and R tracks you get centered sounds only. Result

The straight to the point answer is yes, you can use less bits to encode the same range, though for practical matters you'll get strong banding as a result. That is because the log curve applied to make the range viewable on a screen w

I think it feels weird because we define universe as having neither outside nor boundaries. There's a contradiction in terms. It ceases to feel strange as soon as you update the concept to something that has a boundary either in its

As a programmer I'd be really interested in knowing what kind of coding skills are useful to marketers. Could you give me examples of use cases and useful tools / languages ?

Testing does not automatically imply automated tests. I do break down problems and follow the same kind of process, yet my goal is less automated testing than it is raw flexibility, ability to recombine pieces of code at will and move fast.

Writing complete non-ambiguous specs looks absolutely equivalent to writing code.

Can you provide references ? I'd like to know what researchers think about it.

I think that above all, what Arnold is saying is that the blueprint for success is "standing on the shoulder of giants", or listening to successful people advice, which, though it's probably good advice, happens to lead right

We're past static view components. Today UI elements are dynamic things and the code that drives the dynamics should be kept close to the static representation of a given view state. React actually separates UI code and interaction log

As a public figure a president is very vulnerable unless he has absolutely nothing to hide from the public, IMHO, but he is only vulnerable as soon as he knows he is spied on. Which happened here.

Is it common practice to use the most frequent words as features ? It looks like they don't carry much information, by definition. As a first naive approach, I'd rank the words by the inverse of how many categories they appear in,
