I wouldn't really recommend TS anymore. I would just go to a compiled language that actually has runtime type safety and a good ecosystem and devx. Although, it looks like Deno/Bun will improve things. After working with it for 5y

you can just take any laptop and disable (or even remove) the wifi chip, so no. It's only done because people like to do nerd stuff. :)

it wasn't needed in our case. Selling B2B didn't require online reviews of our product.

You should seriously consider a pay as you go plan that bills by minutes or some metric. This is actually what I was expecting when I went to pricing.

As someone that built a 20m ARR survey product... The only difference between this and something making millions is a sales team.

Yes it does.

Yes, it takes months. They also spent months building this custom solution that they now need to maintain.

Also this statement: > which is why database engines worth anything let you describe to them what your needs are Contradicts your argument. Mongo has atomic updates to update specific fields, or you can do replaceOne() etc to replace the

So updating one column on a table is destructive and can lose important information now? :D How do you increment a value in a column while other people write to the database? You don't grab the whole damn row and rewrite it...

That doesn't sound right. Do data dump from prod for initial sync and then setup replication from RDS to new cluster. Once synced do switch. Then you're off RDS and can shard on Citus.

by winrid 3y ago
Absolutely not. Citus would have solved this problem. Or move to MySQL and use PlanetScale etc. Second best option is ability to easily create prod environments, and then give those to your biggest customers (bigname.figma.com) etc. No sing

What?? That's an insane argument. That's like saying if one client sets column X to 1 and another client concurrently sets SET y = 2, one client's writes will be LOST . It shouldn't, and it doesn't. If it did, nobo

It's not an issue with size. It's an issue with race conditions. With Mongo I can update a.b and a.c concurrently from different nodes and both writes will set the right values. You can't do that with PG JSONB unless you lock
738.
by winrid 3y ago
The problem is that postgres is not a replacement. The JSON operations are not atomic which is terrible. If you wanna use PG that's cool, but I'd suggest just avoiding JSON.

I don't doubt there are real benefits for them to switch but BTW this is not true: > Difficulty configuring database transactions: With MongoDB, setting up transactions was not trivial because it required running MongoDB in cluster

I would say yes, and I think it's pretty common knowledge. Personally, my wife didn't have plaque buildup or dental problems for over 10yrs, so she never went to the dentist. After she moved to the US and started eating sugar she

The coolest thing about this to me IMO is the comparison between the two CPUs. Is there a project that publishes benchmarks compiling projects across different CPUs? I know passmark is kinda the go-to but this would be cool. Someday I'

Could also have a file watcher that auto commits. I imagine there's already a plugin that does that.

I've been using Asana for years but there have been a lot of quality issues with the software... and various bugs that just don't get fixed. They also put columns and some sorting options behind a paywall. Are there any similar OS

Go indeed makes it hard to justify languages like Nim. I'm kinda scared I'll like Go so much and then my Java knowledge will quickly decay x)

I had a solution for a production data sanity check solution that worked better than the one in production, however the architects were making it difficult to deploy it, even temporarily. It was just a script. My manager offered to give me
