So I love the quotes at the top of the article, and evidence bears out on those. HOWEVER, is it really that big a problem that the Search Index goes out of sync with the Database? I suppose it depends on the use-case, but without that spec

That's a super cool anecdote, thanks for sharing! Feels like meeting the needs of each customer in finance can be like writing bespoke code for each! Using: - existing 'data structures' like "loans" - 'infrastr

My concerns with switching to a Lenovo X1 Carbon: 1. I won't use Windows. Will my battery life and WiFi performance be as good on Ubuntu? How much worse will it be? 2. Lenovo injected malware into the BIOS before. It was a different la

It's funded by Google completely according to TFA, and it's filed under "Infrastructure - Google Cloud Platform" - I'd hazard a guess that it's probably just for Google Cloud. They might extend it for AMP sites

Interesting! The performance of string matching (or even more exotic things like real-time AST generation or even ML) must be better than interfering with every call to system APIs. Thanks for posting.

Gaddafi was worth $200bn?!! What an ignominious way to go. It must have sucked particularly hard to be that rich and die the way he did... money != power I suppose, not always anyway.
