Yeah, i wrote a PHP MySQL module that uses multi-exec curl as a means of creating parallel queries. I have been meaning to open source this for a while now, might try do it later this week...i don't see a better way to do it in PHP 7 a

The longer [if based] format can almost be interpreted by any human that has no programming experience but a good grasp of logic, the other is just inherently more complex and less verbose. Edit: And my point here is basically that less exp

Great point, and for that reason I really like it, but generally my view is: "for most situations, humans are more expensive than the compute costs, so do the thing that is easy for a human to understand and pay the tax on your compute

Async queries, great advice..do that. The rest meh... The bad: "Use HHVM". Do not do this, just upgrade to PHP 7. HHVM does have better performance [in some cases, not all], but it also has many unsupported modules [such as Memcac

Which would mark the second time in 241 years those states agreed upon something... In all seriousness, state run healthcare is a great idea, but the government is just such a big stakeholder in having a healthy population that I do not see

Curious, what did (or didn't) those organizations do? I donate to some of them and would gladly change that by donating elsewhere if there is good reason not to. Also, agreed. Australia is a mess. I grew up in Newcastle, living in Toro

Hint: Governments have more perceived control than actual control. It's seriously disappointing, but if the claims by people crying out about "Chinese money" are correct, 15% was never going to be enough. If your concern as a

Fair enough. My biggest question is the same old problem that plagues all databases: Do you have any plans coming up to help us deal with modifying large tables, scaling writes and/or dealing with current known storage limits?
