DataStax | Software Engineer in Test | Anywhere, US | REMOTE | datastax.com

We're a five year old startup that ships an enterprise version of Apache Cassandra.

My team is hiring SETs to work on the core of our product, testing Apache Cassandra and its relation to all of our tools. Our stack is primarily Python/Java. Interview process is a phone discussion, tech screen, and then interviews with the team. We're looking for entry-level to intermediate developers.

It's interesting, fun work, and if you'd like to know more, please email me at [email protected]

In many municipalities, they contract trash and recycling collection out to private companies. Many times those companies charge separately for recycling collection.

That seems like a confusion between the A in CAP and the A in ACID.

I can't tell if the price is per delivery or per year, I assume per delivery based on the quantity.
Re:What makes for a stable marriage? Part 2 on Friday November 07, 2014 @11:01AM (#8573095)
The author addresses this in the comments. He states that there are likely more divorces for one gender than the other in his data set. Which implies to me that individuals, rather than couples, are surveyed about their marriages/divorces.

So if he surveyed 10 women and 10 men, those 10 women weren't married to those 10 men.

If that isn't the case, then I'm also not sure how that could be the case given that he states all marriages examined were heterosexual in nature.

Here are two blog posts I was able to find from companies who switched Mongo -> Cassandra:

The main selling points for Cassandra over Mongo are that it scales to more machines easier for handling larger workloads, and the write performance is better.

If you look below, someone from Digital Ocean responded. It's a specific set of early adopter accounts.
Unlike grouper it does not appear that any of the parties knew each other in advance. So if my understanding is correct, the two same-sex individuals you are matched with are also potential partners.
I noticed that http://homehub.co/product/355 is in both the "budget" and "baller" categories. How are the items grouped? Otherwise, I like it.

I believe setting "close_windows_when_empty" to false in your preferences should prevent this.
I believe he is speaking about a reduction in paperwork on his part, because they are handling that for him.
