It's called marketing and as evidenced by MongoDB, people will believe anything you tell them. Web scale my ass Mongo.

It's funny how far we've come from what our founders sought to protect us from. Did you know the fourth amendment was written in response to the prevailing asset forfeiture laws of the time period. Yet here we see it having to be

With a name like Medko Health, you may quickly run into problems with Medco Health Solutions (a division of Express Scripts) that has very deep pockets to challenge you on trademark issues. You might want to rethink the name.

People still use it. Hell, some people love it. I was using it about a year ago as a primary caching layer at the company I worked for then. Given a choice I would have gladly picked something else. Damn near anything else actually. Hope it

Evidently porn star didn't have mentors either. Have to admit, if you're going to put this up on the web, most every 18-21 year old guy I know is going to put that in. Perhaps you need to put in a few "keep dreaming" on

Now THAT is how you do it. Grab a "shock of the week" angle and play it for anyone that wants to watch. Only issue is getting a "non-defective" pacemaker. Those things aren't cheap or easy to come by without orderin

I see Puppet but not Chef. That's something that should be fixed. Then again, this was done in 2013. I bet a fair amount has changed since then. Also, SLOC for ranking on Github? We don't use that to assess "productivity"

Ttheir origin cache handled but 5% of all traffic and did very little to help the system. The big takeaway should be to understand the usefullness of every level, both in terms of added cost in maintaining, complexity and equipment so that

Managers need to code. However, managers need to manage first. "Management" doesn't always mean tell people what to do (it rarely does if you're doing it right,) Managing could mean protecting your team from all the bori

Actually, in a free democracy, it is his right to go against others beliefs and to contribute campaign money to those who hold similar beliefs to himself. That's what makes this country so great.

Sorry but I have to agree with this. If the purpose of the role is to be the CEO of a company dedicated to open source software then his religion, personal beliefs, and his lifestyle choices should have no bearing on being a CEO. That inclu

Sure, If you're writing Python, write Python not Haskell. C#, don't try to do Erlang. Basically, write to the language you're working in and not to something you're not. Also, if you think a deep domain based algorithm i

I worked with her on that project to put a satellite into space. She did a damnable fine job on the lightning algorithm. I managed to write an over engineered piece of junk. Funny part is, her "simple" code was far better than my

I never said Python is going to be better. I merely stated that with a head start in terms of functionality you get from Pandas that Python will have the upper hand. Also, if history is any guide, the "new" and the "hot"

And I expect to see large improvements in Pandas as it is an active and vibrant project. This will be hard to replicate in Julia, not for lack of trying by the community, but rather due to the head start of the Python community. To be hones

We can only gain by spying on you. We have a military base with defense systems in your country. Your political decisions therefore will have an impact on the effectiveness of our military system to defend our country.

So they send code to Redis to make sure that they won't increment too high? I know Redis already has a ton of functions prepackaged but this seems like it would be a good one: INCRIF.

So there's no issue with a business line? Sounds like they're NOT throttling Netflix per se but rather residential lines. That would make sense since businesses pay more and generally consume less. Welcome to the future.

The best part is about real estate. Ask my grandma and it's great! Ask people my age and they've lost their entire fortunes, declared bankruptcy and some are still on payment plans for real estate worth 1/2 they paid for it.
