This is insanely good. Can't wait for grandchild :)

As immortal words of the master Oogway, "Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift. That is why it is called the present."

I am utterly fascinated by Japanese joinery

market cap is same as 100% of shares so it is $25B more than Nvidia price

I am not sure if you realize that Eagle is fully embedded and rebranded within Fusion360 so you will have access to the same functionality but in integrated environment (for better or worse)

if anything I would think that person would write same code but without PR would lost the opportunity of having better quality. People are blind to own mistakes. I can't count how many times I would stare at a code not seeing something and other person would spot problem almost immediately.

not to be rude but 250K uniques users is 3 new users per second and doesn't say anything about concurrent users. Concurrent users are scaling problem

That reminded me

wait for next software update to patch security :) , you made my day

Why you wouldn't use AWS http events for this. Especially because connections are decoupled from processing

in my experience it is usually not required and not desirable to have distributed transaction where transaction coordinator is your remote client. It is also habitual behaviour, you are used to ACID so it must be that ACID is required. Currently have that type of discussions at work where people want to have atomic consistency across distributed systems just because mental model is easier. Whenever eventual consistency raises ugly head people get worried :)

depends, if all requests are parallel they should hit different instances and that would distribute load more efficiently instead of pinning to single instance. You would actually get response in 200ms not to mention that your ability to properly size each node is increased. It also enables you to have a grey area where response can be partial and not just fail/pass. As usual YMMW depending on use case.

35+ years in and I am grateful every day that I do what I love. It is fun to make things tick.

also remember that median always exists so it will always be a case that there is 1/2 under and 1/2 over.If all companies paying median raise that by 20% what is a current median?

it is amusing that you think you have fair chance if NSA/government really wants to get you. Buy hey if that makes you sleep at night be my guest.

better analogy would be that in this case you are unaware that crossing a road is dangerous and you are most likely to die. 90% chance.

my intent with pagination is always to prevent problems with open ended size of data set. 1000 at once is usually not a problem but 10x , 100x etc.. is a big problem for transferring over the wire.

I have a very simple philosophy `no pay no work`. It is about having self respect.

what is wrong for getting paid for non-trivial patent? You have choice of using or not. It is not upon you to make a choice it must be free.

did you consider using AWS eventing in API Gateway https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/compute/announcing-websocket-ap... ?

having a hard time to see how you scale down 120 mil a year. How much you spend yearly now

not to downplay any death but there are roughly 100 deaths/day from car accidents and similar number is also from gun-related just to have some perspective. Unfortunate/scary thing is that the virus has the potential to eclipse those numbers by 10x easily

I would say this is totally false. I am working for Canadian office of US company and travel to the US on average once a month for meetings. Doing that for 10+ years and if anything I noticed I get fewer questions at the US border lately.

from my experience, you might not need all the data in the first fetch but it is highly likely that it will be needed for subsequent renderings. What worked better for me is to make sure the client doesn't ask for the same data (ID) multiple times, client-side caching works wonders in that case

you say pessimism I say the experience and better insight how life really works YMMW

What I did in the past is to use the highest marginal tax rate for both corp tax and personal tax and leave that aside as our Dutch friend said it is actually a nice bonus at the end so you feel 2x better

basic means/tools -> car you set your time and drive whenever you please or not at all

so in conclusion even by your test you are not employee

it reads like C , not like regular java all idioms are C like

I think it is companies prerogrative to find a way to have cheaper qualified labor (within legal boundaries). Where companies fail in most cases is a qualifed/quality part of equation. Unfortunately I was in situations where given a pool of applicants I wouldn't hire any but stupid head count game is you snooze , you lose and no, management doesn't always understand addition by substraction priciple :-)

also I see a lot of developers overestimating how good they are and demanding compensation that is not realistic to what they can deliver but they are within their rights to ask and if they get it more power to them
