Yeah a millisecond is a long time even in Java. Couple of years I was writing a java backend server for caching+computation. I was severely memory strapped and was designing the daily expiration of data. The core data structure was map<m

I am by no means knowledgable in the relevant domain yet this is scary at so many levels. The team that is taking charge of so many critical infrastructure not doing a minimal level of fact finding before pushing for a new kernel module for

I agree with the basic and maybe its specially true for a project like linux kernel but there is another side to it too. I usually refactor after understanding the code specially oddball sections which usually means it's handling some

How reliable is this one? Browsers these days are infuriatingly memory hog and Chrome is the champion specially in OSX.

Its true that good benchmark is extremely hard to get right specially for complex tools like these or databases. But I honestly think thats the secondary reason, the primary being stopping someone from truly evaluating their products. Essen

I understand the basic architecture (or so I think) and its again the question of what happens when you have lots of complex entities with complex workflow/significance. For example in banking the transactions is one core thing while t

The basic idea looks simple when you have a few entities/event and the numbers of rows in the table are reasonable. It seems to me that the overhead and complexity is somewhat manageable when thats the case. But what do you do or how d

How does it work? Any info on that.

The biggest thing that just came to my mind is for durable storage. I think I can some problem at work radically differently and much simpler if I had this available in 10s of GB. How? Because its bit addressable and persistent. Together th

Your boss don't really need to see every commit to know what you are doing. It should be visible/understandable from the product. And most people who are beating the drums talking about what they are doing at micro level are more

I have always wanted to use such a tool and this one looks good from a cursory glance. But what I have always wanted to know how people actually use these properly. There are two problems that I see in replicating production traffic to stag

That doesn't sound good. I really want to use physical button with my kindle. Thats my biggest complaint. One thing I couldn't find anywhere is how strong is the glass? A reader is much bigger than a phone and I wonder how safe su

It kind of feels like as bad as it can get. Even my far older sony had options to do some sorting. With good naming of my book files I can get it sort by author at least.

Agree so absolutely. Chrome taskbar (on Mac) showing a memory use of 472MB. I think even outlook express was many times lighter than this the last time I used them. Yes its kind of a cross platform mail client but it definitely has lesser f

What about the keys? I was thinking of getting a mechanical keyboard but with shared space the noise would be a problem. I have heard a lot about the cherry switches but not about matias, so wondering about that. It seems that the ergonomic

The whole idea is that developers wouldn't need to know. Memory might be dirt cheap but GC pause time and surrounding latency definitely is not.

But it is really scary if anything close to this is true. I have never even heard that SSD loose data after some weeks. I have HDD stored without power for longterm backup when my computer didn't have enough ports. Even a year would be

That is a really really bad thing ins't it, completely giving away the isolation at the very lowest level? How come this happens though. Saving/restoring the full set of registers is easy right, everyone knows the full list. Do th

I was wondering for a moment if any MITM was possible at some steps. But it also happens for encrypted packet right and maybe MITM is not possible in that case. I don't really know the steps involved in creating, encrypting packets to

by tmd83 11y ago
You mean the checksum bit right. Letting a corrupted packet pass through? Funny that it was a corrupted length value that caused the problem which I seem to recall one of the big attack vector when its intentional.

A fantastic investigation. These are always fun to read but also scary as in how bugs at so many stacks combined together to generate a problem. So you might end up being the only one to be affected by something and if you don't have t

Html and CSS is many ways a wonderful thing giving us access to information in such powerful ways. But at the same they are both awful in so many ways. The fact that when I'm mostly reading 10/20 documents my browser is by far the

It will definitely be meaningful specially for those huge multinational with CEO's earning extreme amount. Given that the article said something like 300:1 ratio of salaries in some companies even if your median wage salary is off by 2

I think what he meant is an application that is serving a lot of requests at low latency which would be the ideal scenario for a api/cache server so not much of crap. And I'm not sure why you are comparing a 6G new gen to a 2MB ne

Not sure I understand the temp table part. My point was that you are always calculating it dynamically. So if you have two dates in location x, timezone y and you save the rows time1, x = time1, ytimezone, yoffset time2, x = time2, ytimezon

I never realised this problem despite having to work with some datetime problems before. But as you said the solution is not full proof. The biggest problem with your (what I believe is theoretically foolproof solution) is that it will for

by tmd83 12y ago
I have a feeling that you're oversimplifying it. You will have events/dates on the table which are even for a single timezone have multiple offset like before/after DST. Essentially you will have to store the whole timezone r
