This is just patently false. Unless they were lying on the ground because they were exhausted from Covid and the bus ran them over, Covid would not appear on a death certificate as a co-morbidity.

FWIW, if you have to ask this question then perhaps the ~20-30% cost overhead of RDS is worth not having to handle the sysops layer? If you want to, Bitnami and others have AMIs on the marketplace that have various versions of PG installed: https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/pp/B01LWIX1ZK?qid=1573152...

"It depends"

As someone who has gone through this for some 20 yrs, it's usually a faster commute to travel from Hoboken to pretty much anywhere along/south of the PATH line during peak hours (so 34th down to the southern tip of Manhattan) versus a starting point of the UES/UWS (which is where the comparable housing exists).

My commute from Hoboken to various startup locations in NYC was consistently ~45 minutes door to door, versus an hour for my friends on the UES/UWS.

What's common isn't necessarily a good practice to follow - https://google.github.io/styleguide/pyguide.html#Imports

By importing a function and assigning a 1 char alias to it, the readability of the code is impacted.

If that were the case then wouldn't a more appropriate solution be to lock commenting altogether after a particular time since thread creation (or an expiry after falling off of the front page?).

> Tags point to branches, but they don't get updated.

Did you mean to say tags point to a commit?

remote branches can also be achieved with one flag by using `-r` ( git branch -r ). Neat note about the reasoning behind stash.

dolinsky

I assume you're referring to the use of the different flags?

For the latter two, no disagreement there. For the former two, there is a difference between returning a verbose response within the context queried and expanding the inclusive parameters of the query. 'git remote -a' makes no sense as all remotes are equivalent (there is no such thing as a local remote).

To clarify (and answer @sureshv), Varnish allocates one worker-thread per session (active connection), but those threads are pooled by the managed thread pool @sureshv referred to. It's recommended to leave the thread_pool value at 2 and scale the thread_pool_min and _max values to suit your traffic.

As for the handling of the websockets, setting the pipe_timeout variable in the vcl file would release any persistent, yet silent, connections.

Overall I enjoyed reading the article and the specific tradeoffs you had to consider when comparing Riak to Mongo for your specific use cases. I'm curious if you had any problems w/r/t the 3 items you highlighted above when using Mongo, as none of those were mentioned in the linked article.

(these points are for MongoDB 2.0+)

1. Adding a new shard in Mongo will cause the data to be automatically rebalanced in the background. No application-level intervention required.

2. Node failure (primary in a RS) is handled without intervention by the rest of the nodes in the cluster. Network partitions can be handled depending on what the value set for 'w' is (in practice it's not an isolated problem with a specific solution).

3. Using mongos abstracts the need to know what node any data is on as each mongos keeps an updated hash of the shard keys. Queries will be sent directly to the node with the requested data.

Indeed it does.

Wouldn't take much for someone to whip up a script to parse the search results to build a list of usernames to bounce off of. There's also a fair amount of item-specific data too.

update2 - Apparently some usernames work and others don't

I believe his account is the only one that is made public. Obtaining a list of usernames is as easy as a 'site:oink.com' search in google.

New York, NY (Tribeca/Soho border)

TigerTrade (https://tigertrade.com) is revolutionizing the way global sourcing is done online.

Hiring:

Frontend Engineers - http://bit.ly/wkZ7yg

Backend Engineers - http://bit.ly/wDmSbU

Both positions will be first hires and work directly with me to build out our product offering across multiple delivery platforms (web/mobile/api/carrier pigeon) and reach a global market of buyers/suppliers/service providers. This is an amazing opportunity for someone who wants to have a large amount of responsibility and say in not only what is built, but how we go about building it (Lean + sprint.ly + validation === fun).

Currently the stack includes a custom build of Nginx, PHP5.3 (lithium), MongoDB, Redis, memcached combo, and that grows as our needs will. Local sandboxes are configured using Chef, Vagrant, VirtualBox, git - and it comes with a MBP w/ display(s) of your choosing to boot.

If you're passionate and smart (and know Python/Java), there's going to be a huge opportunity for some serious data analysis, recommendation and visualization as we build out our discovery engine based on the huge amounts of manifests, trade documents, behavioral and product data that we aggregate from and about our industry.

We're funded, we're growing, we enjoy working with each other (but we like to go home at the end of the day as well), and we'd love to hear from you.

When I have watched hearings in the past it has been to listen to debates (most of which wind up being read verbatim from a piece of paper), but the language used is more natural than that of a proposed bill/amendment.

As for doing their homework, from the events surrounding SOPA which have taken place to date and in reading the list of amendments to be discussed, I don't believe these JC members - save for a few like Lofgren, Polis, Sensenbrenner, Chaffetz - have done their homework.

Two of the most important amendments over the next two days: * performing a study on the impact of any bill prior to its enactment (why this isn't a part of judiciary procedure escapes me) * an expiry on the provision of the bill after 5 years, which I think is a wonderful idea.

In watching the live stream there is some young-ish woman speaking so fast in order to get through the particular amendment she is (I'm assuming) required to read verbatim, and in such a monotonic tone, that I can't understand the reason for doing so. The people listening surely can't be retaining what it is that she is saying. It would be much more prudent if (gosh forbid) everybody involved had done their homework, read up on the appropriate amendments prior to this hearing, and came prepared to discuss and debate merits. Ya know...kinda like what we all had to do growing up. Do your homework. BTW, there's a woman furiously typing away on a blackberry with an iPad in her hand and a man on an iPad who are both on camera directly behind this woman speaking. I rest my case your honor.

I came across http://www.muscula.com/ over the weekend, and they seem to be farther along with this kind of a product in terms of features (not to discourage you, just to give you a heads up as to what else is out there). Specifically, they've implemented a stack trace and also provide the browser/OS data in addition to the file/line/error.

They also provide a quick overview of their architecture if anyone is curious @ http://www.muscula.com/architecture
