Not trying to say you can't do it - I'm sure I'm just not informed enough. However, I don't see how MVCC could fix a multi-worker issue that would cause category (1) aborts in your scenario. With MVCC, if another worker

Exactly - In my opinion there is no "identity theft". There is criminal fraud, which the banks are a victim of. However, instead of dealing with that fraud they just pass the costs on to an unrelated individual and then shrug an

We are a small shop that has 4 repositories and 36 users (over half the company). About 10 of those users actually contribute code, the others are monitoring issues, pulling code just to run tests or create distributions, or bots. If we ac

No. Firemen have incentive to prevent fires. Home fires don't increase their revenue stream and in fact put them at risk of injury or death. Police are not mandated to prevent crimes, and have no external incentives to do so (I state e

I agree that the SRP is certainly a subjective rather than objective principle, and possibly general guidance that can and should be broken in specific circumstance. This article points that out but rather than try to apply prescriptive gu

A technical interview whiteboard code or data structure gotchas or mt. fuji questions is a bad interview. It sucks that most technical interviews are bad, but that means we should fix them not remove them. Our team "technical intervie

I'm not sure Jeff's lack of attribution was an oversight since there's a pattern of behavior there. His earliest blogging didn't even have formatting differences between his comment and "quoted" parts, making

Indeed, the writing on this piece is good. And the fact is that the studies bolstering a "10x engineer" belief did have some flaws. However, an couple of anecdotes and some 140-character broadcasts hardly sway me that pronounced p
