For reference, Apache Druid has an equivalent in Imply Polaris, and Apache Pinot has an equivalent in Startree. I can't speak for Startree, but Polaris similarly uses S3 for backing.

On the "not much else" note, it's worth pointing out that the kids these days are putting out some amazing work that lives up to the precedent set by BoC and Aphex. Skee Mask in particular is really great, and I think Four Te

This is what NPR does on the market segment (Kai Rysdal?) The background music reflects the changes in the market over the day. Also, if you haven't read Douglas Adam's "Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency", the

I'm generally perceived as a pretty funny guy, I joke around with both my reports and those I report to, and, yes, even with customers all the time. I've found that I don't need to diminish others to do this, there's ple

A lot of the conversation from the "no politics at work" crowd here is centered around "these folks were wasting company time and losing productivity protesting this". That entirely misses the point. The loss of producti

This is an advertisement for a service disguised as an informative article. The info it provides is pretty basic and it's just farming clicks for signups from HN.

There's a whole ecosystem around using React for static site development now, this is exactly what Gatsby is if I'm not mistaken. Use React as a more powerful templating system for authoring content, but generate most of it out as

I was also befuddled by this. I was using event tracking with GA at least 3 years ago I think, so it was difficult for me to take this article seriously as it hammers on this point repeatedly

Welcome to capitalism... If what you're building is solving a valuable problem, and you don't build it fast enough, someone else will build it quicker and shittier but still solve the problem. You're getting shit slow apps be

I think the team behind this is somewhat trivializing this change by saying that a UI table library "has no business being in charge of your UI". Is the expectation is that the following are all bespoke, easy-to-implement features

Laptop displays are unfortunately limited to the "good enough" solution of additive light. We're stuck with it because it works well enough, so it's not important to sink tons of money and research in bringing e-ink styl

On that note, regardless of what the actual answer is here, insight is sorely missing on the brochureware. Conversely, quip.io has an in-depth whitepaper @ https://quip-cdn.com/iR2bxQSxnJmpXi8KbaQ-XQ which is linked to from

This seems like a great tool. What's the security model for this? I get that it's offline first with sync capabilities, but is notion hosting any of this content to facilitate syncing and if so is it encryped etc? Is there an easy

If you're on OSX and not using the "default for display" resolution, that may be the cause of the issue. Don't have the bugzilla handy, but I stumbled across it at one point and confirmed that that was the culprit for me

I actually experienced this with a rental car in South Africa. I drove for 10+ seconds with the engine revving at full blast with the car in neutral and no mat impacting the pedal. Both feet completely removed from any pedal, using the hand

We use Verdaccio and I can't imagine any serious dev shop not using some kind of proxy / private registry for NPM packages. It's really simple to set up and has served us well, aside from minor hiccups.

Actually, this is incorrect. You're abusing map here. The purpose of map is to map an existing array onto a new array. You're using map here to mutate properties on nodes in the original array, and creating a new Array, which has

I think it really boils down to a perception issue. I think more people would be happy paying a flat fee for a language package then deal with the angst of "wasted" money paying for languages that some users don't leverage. T

I don't really get the pricing on code intelligence. So if I have 50 users and want Javascript, Python, and PHP, that's $750/month, even if 25 users only ever use Python?

E-Ink. It is the "correct" choice for display technology, and with enough research money put into it, it could replace these abominable light-emitting displays. But what we already have is "good enough", despite all of t

an opened document inside an editor is absolutely aware of this, and this is what you're collaborating on. almost all IDEs support EditorConfig, which makes standardizing on things like that across teams trivial.

South Africa also had Beltel around that time, a very similar service I'm sure. I remember being wowed by the real-time cross-country chat and the better-than-ANSI block shapes for drawing :)
