I use sparkey / hammerspace for caching static data (tried rocksdb but hammerspace was faster) for many years. It helps me have a 20ms on a 100r/s on a ruby on rails app (ruunning on a ryzen 5950X). I keep seeing people brag about

I guess the people who are not aware of this effect might make a lot of decisions in life and a confident AI agent will be like a high-tech con-artist. As a child, I would read the horoscope of the day with the wrong sign for mother and her

I don’t think it’s the ADHD. I have it but I’m very conservative on the stack. And I know many developers who don’t have ADHD, some newbie and some who code longer than 20 years and are going after the latest shiny thing. I think it’s more

In my experience, there's the "software developer" and the "formware developer," and as more companies go through a real "Digital Transformation," they begin to require their programmers to do more advance

As as person who got diagnosed with ADHD as an adult and looked back to a life of potential wasted, and while I don’t agree with calling the benefits of any drug “superpowers”, I can understand why some people would. I exercise almost every

The doctor recommended that I tried Strattera first and see if worked before trying stimulants. Atomoxetine is one pill per day and works 24 hours. But doesn’t work for everybody and some people have some undesired side-effects. I had some

Have been taking Strattera for a few months and wonder how many years of my life I would have not wasted if I had been diagnosed with ADHD earlier in my life. I just turned 40 and I never thought I had ADHD until recently. Before I just tho

In the case of COVID, I don't think we need two years. My wife had COVID a few months ago and got beat up pretty badly. She would be the last person you would think would get seriously ill - she eats only healthy food, is(was) a Crossf

I believe that Brazil gives a good case study on the subject. The whole sector used to be state-owned and electricity used to be more expensive and outages a very regular thing. Currently, some parts of the country have private generation

I would say the quality is relative to your input and to what type of application you need results for. If you are gonna use the pointcloud as a cheaper and faster alternative to LIDAR and need to take measures with centimeter precision, yo

DJI drones stores that on the image itself. No need to use the logs.

I'm familiar only with the DJI drones and they do capture Pitch, Yaw and Gimbal and a few other variables as well. It stores them on the "extended" part of the EXIF.

At work, we tried DroneDeploy and Agisoft, but we settled with Pix4D, expensive, but we got better accuracy and the people who operate the drones found it easier to use.

I'm not sure how many outages I could avoid using Heroku, but I guess at least a few. One time I was using Docker for a 2 TB MongoDB and it messed the iptables rules. I notice everything slow for a few days until the database disappear

Exactly. I'm pretty sure if I developed the whole thing in C, it would be really fast. But I would be the slowest part of the development process.

The 6k/req with 40ms is just at the front door. I'm talking about a real application here. With 100s of database and API calls on each web page load. I could make the whole thing in Golang or Scala and that would be at least one o

Unfortunately, the fight goes even further than that when you go against the cloud. Last week I was in an event with the CTOs of many of the hottest startups in America. It was shocking how much money is wasted on the cloud because ineffici

I'm very familiar not only with the voting laws but the campaigns laws. In my opinion, the voting laws in Brazil are not bad. The US is very different than Brazil. One big difference is that in Brazil the TSE and the TREs and also the

It's a very different story in Brazil. Trust me. I'm not only from there, I have been involved and know a thing or two about Brazil's politics. To start, in America the vote is not mandatory like in Brazil. Here, the "ID

One thing that I noticed is that if the website is behind Distil Networks, they will block on the first request and make cumbersome, if not impossible, to automate some task. I get that is important to protect the information of their clien

In Brazil, federal, state and some local governments publish what is called "Diário Oficial". It's a daily ledger of official hirings, firings, payments, votes on legislative chambers and even criminal indictments. The Brazil
