btw, the params order for callbacks is not very node-y in HyperDex. It should be (err, result) instead of (result, err). Putting the error first would enable Async or Promise libs to work...

Startups are all about small companies moving fast, so maybe small countries moving fast are part of the future of startups.

TL;DR; Fake it till you make it You're probably a perfectionist. Bad news: in a few years, you might still think you're not good enough, when in fact you'll good enough. Good news: perfectionism will push you forward. So you

We don't know much about your environment... Yet if you feel the need to triage exceptions, you probably have too many of them! you should strive have 0. If you treat every exception as a disaster, your team will have a better sense of

Sorry you had such an experience with France. I've left the country too (I'm french).

In France, there's a high chance of trial if you lay someone off... A 25% chance! ( http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Licenciement_en_France#Statisti... ) From what I've found on the Net, the laid off decided to ta

Limiting this kind of program to startups could help. Limiting to certain jobs and job levels too (I guess the fake companies don't "employ" PhDs in compsci either). It's not my job to make it work or make it right. But

Of course, they could also help create real companies. For a limited time, and a limited number of "employees". Also note that this implies a serious investment from the company too: they have to train these employees... which t

There are definitely such laws. There's even a minimum wage for interns in France (800€/m, which is about 80% of the legal minimum salary). And unions in France would definitely be opposed to it... because they're opposed to

Then enforce good manners and sound business practice. And restrict the extent of this program, both in numbers and time. Also limit this program to companies that need it most (could not hire otherwise).

Then limit the program to a non significant fraction of its workers and a limited time, and a limited number of such programs per year. That's very easy to verify and enforce...

I'm ashamed I'm french... How can one think "let's start a fake company" instead of asking real companies to train these people for real? and for free... How is it OK to work for a fake company, but it's bad to

You're right... thanks

Thanks for your comment :) It still puzzles me a great deal!

I've studied accounting at school and I've always hated it since then. To me, accounting is a data model gone wrong. Redundancy, race conditions, unclear semantics, too generic... I've tried countless times to make sense of i

Yes, this kind of latency definitely says "indexed". When I wrote this, I'd read a rethinkDB employee say "it's not using the index on rethinkdb", and performance was similar (3x) between the two. I trusted the

Some mistakes in his benchmarks, among probably others: - I don't see any mongodb index creation, so mongodb is inserting with no index while rethinkdb is inserting with the index. That's probably why there's a gap between th

We know nothing about the author's use case... Maybe he wanted to know where each DB shines compared to each other, to see if some workloads are better suited to one or the other. Of course, benchmarks "should" include concur

I do understand that second degree, but I don't think the author is a fanboy... At work, we're also Mongodb users. If tomorrow we try to benchmark against Cassandra, performance will probably be the selling point. I don't thi

Then how on earth is it possible to build Parse.com with MongoDB? http://blog.parse.com/announcements/mongodb-rocksdb-parse/

by weddpros 11y ago
Well, the author cares enough about RethinkDB to test it, even if he's a mongodb fan, even if his first benchmark was wrong, he was right to publish it: you all helped him when you pinpointed the problems in his tests... Thanks you for

I have the same problem, and I've come to accept it. Sometimes I'm very efficient, sometimes not... Acceptation helps: you won't feel like sh anymore. Acceptation also means "let's go for a walk" is often you

In addition... "PUT commands write to a file, GET commands read the file back, sort and reduce the data, then return the file" I guess the author had to add the sort/reduce to "prove" his point...

I don't even know how they upgrade their servers... With mongodb, it's a breeze if you have a replica set. Same goes with backups.

Postgresql doesn't even try to scale horizontally. Regarding Mongodb, all I'll say is that I've switched from mysql to mongodb 2 years ago, and I've never looked back. YMMV. I'm also a user of ElasticSearch and Redi

I agree with your point about the lcient, but there's always a client... What's missing in the postgresql test is high availability, redundancy and partition tolerance... Similarly any inprocess db would beat the competition :) Th

That's a real problem. There's little need for a nosql database (except redis maybe, because it's so fast) if you're not trying to overcome partitions and ensure HA...

by weddpros 12y ago
In general, strongly consistent distributed datastores like zookeeper tend to be strongly consistent (cf Consul and Etcd too)... But Postgres was not tested as a distributed database, sharded or replicated, and without any form of failover.

If we're looking at "entrepreneurs" as a source of growth, then yes, startups are what we're looking for. If you don't start that pizza business, I'll buy my pizza somewhere else. Startups create new markets th
