It won't fix anything. JSON is the "standard" today, 15 years ago it was XML and in 15 years we will have protobuf or another new standard.

Just guessing: They bought a software from a third party and treat it as a "black box". There are few known ways that the software fails, and the local team has instructions on how to fix it. But if it fails in an unexpected way,

Benchmarks aren't too promising[0]. I wonder if the original 500% improvement they targeted at the start of the `faster cpython` project is still a realistic target. [0] https://github.com/faster-cpython/benchmarki

May be once or twice per month to full relax, but it depends a lot on your needs and family situation. For example, if you have kids, things change a lot. But in general, dedicate 3 hours per day to anything except your work, it's more

If you look for a good work/life balance, I think it's more important to have strict rules during the single day, like "don't work after dinner" or "do sport just after wake up".

Linux was popular on servers even before Google was a thing! I'm not saying FAANGs/VCs didn't give a huge boost to the OSS tech in the last 15 years but saying that without them OSS won't be possible it's simply not

You are a little bit blinded by FAANGs/VCs aura. 1) FAANGs won't exist forever, software/hardware development will continue even after FAANGS will be disassembled by antitrust, go in bankruptcy or stop investing for any other

I don't want to mess with my hardware. Anyway, with "abstractions" I mean all services like AWS App Runner that are build on top of foundational services (ec2, ebs, s3, vpc) that drains resources and money at the expense of t

Cloud vendors should focus more on "low/mid level" stuff(hardware and basic virtualization) and less on all their abstraction that should be left to end-users or third party software vendors. Unfortunately, this will never ha

So the cost reduction that all these hyperscalers pledge doesn't come from huge volumes, but from saving on staff? Just a rant ...

In python you just write your business logic. For any "low level"/non-business aspect, you already have great stdlib and rich ecosystem of third party packages. People care delivering features rather than design and build the

I wonder how much of the savings comes from the refactoring and how much from the difference between the speed of python and elixir.

Please don't get me wrong, it's just my point of view, but it seems pretty complicated to run and manage all these things together. At least one between mongo and postgres seems unnecessary.

by vb-8448 3y ago
just for curiosity: - what kind of data are you storing in mongodb? - why mongodb when you already have postgresql + redis? - it's a one-man business?

What kind of storage are you using behind of scenes?

As I said, it depends on your needs. I don't know if you have ever managed a small gitlab self-hosted installation, but it's really trivial, you set up it the first time, and you forget about it. Also, the upgrade process takes fe

It depends on your needs and team size. For few tens of dev that need a versioning system with some sugar, a self hosted gitlab can acieve better uptime.
