Check tld-list.com and porkbun.com when looking for a domain to register, you'll often find cheaper than elsewhere That said, I wouldn't use a registrar that didn't have good reviews, and I'd look at security policy, pri

If you start from next to nothing, you can sustain 3% growth per year for 33 years until you reach 100% growth. That is 33 years to go from lifting 50lbs to lifting 100lbs. You'd actually probably have to work hard to improve that slow

Except that everyone's body is different, and sometimes you really should be on a particular diet of some kind. Ask your doctor what to eat, eat that. When they say "stop drinking", "cut back the salt", "eat mo

If it were profitable, they'd be profiting. Parking lots are parking lots because they require low CapEx, almost no OpEx. You buy some abandoned land, raze it, asphalt it, charge $30 a day per space (at let's say 75 spaces), tow t

The application doesn't care if it's "just a transport" or "part of an elaborate spec". Functionally there is no difference between an HTTP transaction and a message queue transaction, for a specific kind of me

You're welcome to see it that way if you want. But if you think you can get to know a completely new kernel, OS, etc in a short amount of time, backwards and forwards, you're equally as disingenuous. You can get by editing a few l

MQTT is a transport too, but its design facilitates a brokered pub-sub message queue. The transport implementation is effectively the queue, as far as the applications are concerned.

Fwiw, HTTP is a stateless synchronous at-least-once many-to-one request-reply message queue with metadata.

If you want to learn about Message Queues firsthand (and you should if you care about CS) I recommend implementing some with ZeroMQ. (I love the joke in the article about it being "zero effort" xD) There are many, many forms of qu

Everyone is capable of learning. I can hire someone who is capable of learning Japanese. They can then try to teach the rest of the team Japanese. Does that mean it's a good idea to switch all our internal docs to Japanese? Maybe if I

A lot of people out there claim to know Linux, yet few can prove it. OTOH, if they gain a cult following with lots of people using their stack, those people might become more familiar with their stack than most Linux people are with theirs.

It's a mainframe. You use it like you use mainframes, but probably easier, as they're adopting more modern functionality. You won't be aware you're using it, just like you aren't aware when you use a zSystem.

A team should always pick the tools they are most familiar with. They will always have better results with that, than trying to use something they understand less. With this in mind, using their own stack is a perfectly adequate choice. Fac

It's a mainframe. If you can't get excited for mainframes it'll be hard to be excited about this. IllumOS is the OS/360 to Oxide's System/360. (It won't get that popular but it's a fair enough compari

I imagine an indexed RDBMS could do this in a fraction of a second? I get that this is more of an academic exercise, but it also kind of explains why you might prefer one solution over another for a given task.
