Ask HN: How do you manage RabbitMQ queues/exchanges?

I am looking for the best practises around managing RabbitMQ changes/configuration.In my current micro-services/worker based architecture I have:* many publisher that publish to exchanges, these exchanges are linked to one or more queues. * Each worker has it's own queue that is later bind to the exchange.The goal is that publisher and workers do not know anything about each other or where...

Well I am big believer in so-called techno communism. The problem with communism in past was that people had to do dirty work, if we automate every possible job and create basic income we will end-up with some sort of communism. It wasn't possible to implement true communism in the past and still I think we are not ready to implement it just yet, but 50 100 or maybe 200 years from now communism will be superior, another problem with past implementation of communism was lack of democracy. We need true democratic communism based on technology and freedom.
I had similar experiences, effect was much weaker after 4-5 days but I think it was better for work. Initial 3-4 days were very similar to taking cocaine, I was too high to do good work.
Re:If Your Laptop Is Open, You're Not Listening on Monday May 09, 2016 @06:07AM (#11658642)
It's not black/white situation. Sometimes only part of the meeting will be relevant to you. By using laptop or any device you show no respect to the person that organised the meeting but as well you might losse a lot. I agree that people tend to organise to many meetings but doing anything else on that meeting is not a solution. Sadly (as I am developer too) I realised that developers often thing that they are to smart to do anything else to code and this is the only good way of spendign their time.
Re:Ask HN: What was your best career decision? on Saturday April 30, 2016 @02:58PM (#11603032)
Accepting a full time job into my heart and quitting the startup dream!
I wish that that someone did some tests between old and new software, I bet uptime of old software/hardware would be higher than our current tech stack.

Of course I agree that it was bad, but up to 20 years looks way to long for this crime.
How this is related to tech.. Is HN best place to talk about it?

I've been watching Apollo footage recently too ;)

I am not sure about next 50 years, so far It looks like people would spend more on some selfie sticks than space exploration.

Lack of effort to explore space always makes me sad - especially that last picture of Venus surface comes from 1982.
So people should not become freelancers, based on your single bad experience, make sense. I was expecting some data backing up your statement or at least proper story.

tl;dr - This guy is freelancer and few days ago he was contacted by stupid client who thought he will work almost for free.

Then I would go for another ISP, that's the point I can choose because I live in Europe, but If I could choose between no internet and free internet from Facebook I would go for free from Facebook if noone else want to provide internet for people in Africa.
It's still free, no one is forced to use this. Companies exists to make a profit, if Facebook offers something for free of course it's not driven by philanthropy. I believe internet.org is better than no internet at all. Hopefully people in developing countries will be offered alternative in the near future but to get normal internet they need to earn enough to pay for it - internet.org is free with means people using it are the product.
Re:402: Payment Required on Monday October 05, 2015 @11:04AM (#10332237)
Maybe internet providers should pay fee to the website owners. Same as cable tv providers pays HBO or other channels. We could log the time each user spent on website and then similar to spotify pay proportionally to the website owners. For each internet connection we could pay e.g. $10 that goes to content creators.

Ofcourse Facebook and Google would earn most of this money.

Hi, It's really nice project. I wish it was available last year when I was looking for on-line courses. It took me days using google.

Ask HN: How often do you really reuse ​your code?

As most of developers, I try to create as much reusable code as possible. But in reality, I rarely use my code again. I could easily say that less than 5% of my code will be reused in the future.I wonder how it looks for other people, is it worth to make your code reusable in the first place?
