Distributed ACID transactions. Very good testing regime. Good performance. Basically the NewSQL dream.
There is a species of parasite that infects ants, making them climb blades of grass so they are eaten by wandering bovines.

The cow was the target all along, not the ant.
Why do you think that '1'.charCodeAt() and then subtracting 1 is more appropriate and logical than Number('1') and then subtracting 1?

Please note that the subtraction operator is not defined for strings in js and the language is loosely typed.
It could be a compliment for Swift but seems like an acquihire. Distributed db startups are maturing, market is getting crowded. Yes, Apple is a heavy user of Cassandra last time I checked.

Still a success for the team and should be celebrated appropriately. :) Startups are hard.
I can say that after the most recent update of the Bing iPhone app, I prefer the mobile version to the mobile Google Maps client.
It's hard to believe a stateless box can be hard to manage. There isn't much to go wrong in it. At least, not when compared to a barebones Windows netbook.

True but you typically have a few hours between the time they would have carved you up and the time they ship you to the morgue.

I am not saying that it is likely to happen, but since your benefit from this is Nothing, it just has to be teoretically possible for it to give you an advantage.
This Contest is open to software developers who are 18 years of age or older at the time of entry and who are legal residents of the United States.

Why only the US, really?
I suppose a way to create confines to this test would be to ask the "contestants" to enter their number as a line of code with a restriction on characters. The (theoretical, as it may take eons to compute) output of the code would be your answer. A "big number" golf if you will.
Do you live in a place where every bar has the same/every beer?
Right: It's very workload sensitive how this is going to help. If your data set fits in memory, it's probably very good. If you're waiting on IO, the cost of SQL parsing becomes trivial in comparison.

What is actually interesting, is that InnoDB actually has some optimizations around writing that NoSQL databases do not (configure multiple read/write threads - required for raid controllers and faster SSDs). So while the benchmark does show the absolute best case, it's not like everything else is a write off.

A B+Tree index (assuming hot spots) can usually scale quite well for out of memory fit. This is different for example, from a hash index which aims to have random distribution to each bucket.

There is a tool rental service close to home. Unfortuately it costs a third of the price to rent it for a day, so I end up buying the tools even if I need them for a week and I know I'll never ever need them again (I"m renovating my house).
`And code on GitHub gives no insight into how someone might fit into a company culture.`

github does give you this insight if you look at how the person participates in discussions in the issue tracker and code reviews. remember github's old moto, social coding? i think the author is hung up on the coding part and missing the social part.
> Anecdotally, I think it's very hard for women to be accepted into leadership positions. If she's too tough she's marked as an "angry bitch" and will get rejected

In my experience, the women bosses I've had that would be called "bitch" would be called "asshole" if they were male. I've worked for bitches and assholes, and neither make work life pleasant or productive. This line of reasoning gets repeated often, and I would hate for young women to think that you need to be a bitch to be good leader.
That only gives them immunity if the government "hacks" them with the backdoor. It does NOT give them immunity if someone ELSE actually hacks them with the backdoor.

No company will ever want to take that kind of risk, and it'd cost the US economy billions no matter what the fallout is.
Chunky integration testing is supported. Fine-grained unit testing is ... so-so. If you have units that don't interact with the standard library you can pin down a lot of behaviour.

But if you touch the standard library, which in a systems language is going to happen a bit, then isolating your own code is basically impossible. You are stuck with integration testing only.

Mocking, faking, stubbing and whatnot frequently blow your feet off if you use them indiscriminately. But sometimes they are the best way to test code because you can perform controlled experiments with variables that you control. Go's standard library is riddled with physical structs that cannot be substituted for any kind of double.

Basically, they don't follow their own advice to interface all the things.
I feel like the question was just trying to see how much computation would help, rather than whether the chips are actually capable of doing it.
I'm betting it will happen far sooner than 8 months. Just watching the public polls, there is already plenty of evidence to suggest people are making that calculation already.

The cold truth -- if the bodies that keep stacking up are nearly all 80+ years old, as it seems to be now, then people of working age aren't going to tolerate a forced quarantine all that long. If gov't tries to force the issue, they may only succeed in demonstrating the limits of gov't power.

If you enjoy tales of Antarctic (mis)adventure, and adventure stories in general, I highly, highly recommend "The World Journey in the World" by Apsley Cheery-Garrared [1], the tale of Scott's ill-fated 1910-1913 attempt to be the first to reach the South pole by one of the men with him.

It is easily the most unbelievable account of adventure ever written, I genuinely have never read anything I would consider even a distant 5th place. I honestly don't think humans will come close to anything like it until we start exploring other worlds.

"The company will also announce that it has raised $800,000 in venture capital, the first step in moving along the path from building an app to running a profitable business."

Funny, I would have thought the first step would be not to start giving away a successful app for free.

I'll be watching with interest to see what their plan for revenue is. I thought Pulse was kinda neat but rather an inefficient way to browse for news. I suspect anything advertising related will just accentuate that.
I upvoted your comment for the info, but I have no idea why this is an advantage for anyone except the handful of people who create an implementation. Hand-rolling an XML parser is a pretty sure sign of a certain kind of incompetence. Wouldn't the same be true of hand-rolling a JSON parser, unless you're one of the (rare) first guys to solve the problem for your language or language platform? To put it another way, wouldn't this only have been an advantage before XML libraries became commonplace? The last time I reached for an XML library and found there was none already installed with my platform, I was using Tcl (and it wasn't hard to find TclXML.)
Looks like a nice passive-income site idea, using OPC (other people's content) to drive affiliate and ad clicks. I'm betting they're looking for everything they can find that can possibly be called a cheat sheet.
Princeton is obsessed with getting $1 from me every year for this reason.
