Naturally unless it's trivial do it in steps, but committing to doing the whole migration as quickly as prudent or rolling it back completely is key.

I think this article is tying a lot of unrelated decisions to "Websocket" vs "Long-polling" when they're actually independent. A long-polling server could handle a websocket client with just a bit of extra work to h

The U.S. prison population is around 2M people. I'm not sure how that translates to 77M people with criminal records. (I'm serious about wanting to know more about these statistics and how they're generated. My brief searches

I'm trying to figure out where that number comes from. The link to The Sentencing Project claims this, but the link to NCSL instead states "Approximately 77 million Americans, or 1 in every 3 adults, have a criminal record."

A lot of those "successful" examples have teams of battle-scarred engineers dealing with all the failures of those ideas. Control loops running away to infinity or max/min bounds, a cache that can't recover from a distri

That type of referral indeed is mostly worthless (it might get you actually looked at by a human instead of rejected before that). Useful referrals are the kind where you go chat with your friend, figure out what they want in a job, then go

International Law is not a law like city, county, state, national laws. There's no court and enforcement agency that can just enforce it. It's a set of agreements between countries. Enforcement (if any) is done by countries based

The adjustment to 365.25 came during Roman times. The Gregorian adjustment came after well over a thousand years to realize the drift since Julius Caesar's time.

It requires someone to at some point remember that "Hey when I was a kid 20 years ago the solstice was on December 22 but now it's on December 17, what happened?" and then go looking at historical records to generate a trend

Keeping a calendar is fairly simple (requires knowing writing). Observing which day the solstice is on is also fairly simple (requires a sundial: the shortest/longest shadow at noon are the solstices. If you're in the tropics just

You don't need containers to use cgroups. For instance, systemd uses cgroups to control resource allocation to various services.

I was replying to your comment where you suggested that OS-level resource reservation wasn't a thing that happened in production systems. The situation here is that a single process was being overloaded by one type of load, preventing

The analogy to theft is doing a lot of heavy lifting here. Let's say it was a textbook that also had a label saying it was only to be sold in India. Would the US publisher have a right to steal such a book from someone in the U.S. that

I think the way to read it is as a few things: - An artifact intended to try to help solidify a sense of unity of mission and values - Internal cheerleading - A stake in the sand about things which did not fit in with the values. I read t

The .005% is a bit of a headline-grabber for sure, but the idea makes sense given the context: They're monitoring large, multi-tenant/multi-use-case systems which have very large amounts of diverse traffic. In these cases, the reg
