This is impressive work, but it highlights redis biggest design flaw: single threadedness.

I recently discovered dragonflydb[1] that is 100% redis compatible, but designed from the get-go to be multi threaded - and thus its performance gains are even bigger. I imagine it being designed for multi threadedness from the beginning allows it to offer better performance long term, but that's just anyone's guess.

The product may be developed in Israel, but it says nothing about who used it.

The title is misleading.

How is he the exploiter if he contributes so much to the project?

What, because he prioritizes his hobbies like race matches? Or because he elects not to spend an entire day at an event?

Does an OSS maintainer not allowed to have a life?

Noted, I never delved deeper into the definitions - it was hard enough as it happened.

If that's not burnout, then I don't know what is a burnout, apparently. I never even considered that.

At one point in my career, I've been a CTO of a startup company. I worked 12-14 hours a day, including weekends. My relationship with the CEO was bad, and he actively added "senior tech leads" to the company to compete with me.

One day, I arrived to the office, and stood in the hallway across our office door. I froze. I couldn't physically move. I stood there, unable to move, for 2.5 hours until someone passed by and saw me.

I'm sharing this story so that readers may have an idea of what severe burnout may look like. It's not that I didn't want to move - I couldn't, my brain didn't let me. I lost my ability to control my body at that point.

The Replit CEO has proven himself time and time again to be.. this.

I hope that every potential customer will consider the culture he cultivates. We don't need this in tech.

Universities everywhere become corrupt, as performance doesn't matter for the staff to be paid.

The only thing that matters is political power, both for the hosting country subsidies as well as outside donations (Qatar massive donation that made Harvard president claim that a call to murder all Jews is ok is a great example).

I have no idea how to fix this at this point.

I just know that trust in academic institutions is very, very low. And justifiably so.

And in 1939 the Arab Mufti in the land of Israel met with Hitler and agreed to exterminate all Jews.

By your logic, Palestinians have been Nazis ways before Israel existed.

By definition - if you want to immigrate to the US (legally) you must be successful.

For example, L1 Visa, will require your company to employ at least 15 people in the US by the end of it. So you either start a company successful enough to hire at least 15 people, or you go home.

If you aspire to live in the US at the end of it, it's a hell of a motivator.

I'll just add - this beneficial system is largely being closed down due to illegal immigration in the US, which "fills" the caps in many places. It may be hurtful to the US long term.

^^^ this.

Starting a war and losing it should have consequences.

They tried to genocide the Jews in 1948 and lost.

If there are no consequences for what they did - they'll just keep doing it until they'll be successful. Which, coincidentally, is exactly what Hamas said about Oct 7 - that they'll repeat it again and again.

If anything, Google should be more aggressive with getting any politics out.

Politics essentially botched their Gemini AI release. The politics are beyond harming the company.

Palestinians went on to mass murder civilians, burn babies alive, rape teenage woman, and kidnap >200 people.

That's genocide.

What Israel does is justified war. Learn the difference.

No, it did not. You made that up. Read their decision again.

One of the protestors justified the mass rape and mutilation of Jewish woman: https://twitter.com/politicalelle/status/1780795230704337126

That's a lie.

Israel always allowed as much aid as needed. Hamas kept stealing it to create the crisis and have useful idiots say it's genocide.

The lie of "genocide" again.

Genocide is what the Palestinians attempted - killing civilians, burning babies, and raping teenage girls.

Losing a war you started isn't genocide.

I expected the third step to be "shortage of FBI agents lead to deteriorated quality of service".

But what you described is far more scary.

And this is obviously true for all jobs that hold power. Combine it with bribery that can come from actors like Russia, Qatar, or China - this is an issue that must be fixed now.

I won't blame VCs but the 0% interest rate environment.

When money had no "price" to it, it made absolute sense to borrow as much as possible from the future, and thus delaying profits for growth.

That's why we start seeing this world change now, rates are no longer 0 and money isn't free. You have to pay now, and so you have to have some cash flow now.

The ~400,000 figure is WITHOUT targeted technology, obviously.

Why do you rush to attack?

A war I don't like = Genocide?

Would you just rather have Hamas keep murdering and rapind Jews?

The other option here is carpet bomb a la Drezden, that would have resulted in >400,000 casualties at best.

Why is it barbarism? If it makes the war more efficient and more targeted, it is preferred.

Given that Hamas always uses civilian clothes and infrastructure (like hospitals) how do you suggest doing that?

They never carry weapons - the weapons always wait for them at the target place, so even moving from place to place, they look like unarmed civilians.

War is dirty. It is very convenient to criticize it when you're not in it

A war I don't like = Genocide?

What would you do if >3,000 terrorists came and mass murdered and mass raped your population?

The HN crowd is overly enthusiastic to see Jews die, if anything.

Isn't the content and licensing costs are the majority of their costs? Honestly asking, I never assumed infrastructure and bandwidth might be the majority

Amazon has a kidnapped employee currently being held by Hamas terrorists in Gaza: https://nypost.com/2023/11/30/news/amazon-silent-on-israeli-...

Their disregard for their employees is beyond shameful

The massacre was in Israel, when Hamas mass raped and murdered Israelis.

What happens in Gaza is a justified war to prevent such attacks from occuring again.

Palestinians have higher moral ground by raping innocent teenagers and then shooting them in the head?

Yeah, some moral high ground. Your comment tells more about you than about this conflict.

Because most of the Muslim world shares false propaganda against them, and they are billions of people against ~10 million?

Why does tech used have any effect on what is true? If you don't fear the truth, you should be happy that the minority has the tools to get more data out.
