> $430 billion and add 20,000 new jobs So it takes $22 million investment to add just 1 job? Something seems off.

I think it's even more amazing that Apple can get away with charging $1,300 in 2021 for a desktop with only 8GB RAM. The desktop I built in 2013 had 32GB RAM and that entire thing …

How does Google link the real life person who bought Voltaren at a store to the online account or fingerprint that browses the Internet?

> Quantum-Teleported Data Faster Than the Speed of Light Isn't that a violation of the No-communication theorem? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No-communication_theorem

The truth is out there.

Say Tokio, the async runtime used in OP's article.

Then why is it that IO-heavy benchmarks such as the Techempower web benchmark are dominated by async frameworks? The fastest results there are all from async frameworks [1]. And am…

> A context switch takes around 0.2µs between async tasks, versus 1.7µs between kernel threads. But this advantage goes away if the context switch is due to I/O readiness: both con…

How does Rust async compare to Goroutine, Erlang threads, Javascript async, Java async in performance and memory usage? Is there any benchmarks for that?

Are there any dedicated server hosters that give you 100Gbps private networking among your servers?

Great. Looking forward to learn more about this.

I remember reading about this a few years ago here. If I remember correctly back then the main selling point was that it used succinct data structure and it was only the compressio…

How big is your largest customer though? You can easily buy a machine with several TB of RAM, several hundreds of TB of SSDs in RAID giving you millions of IOPS, quad-socket 256 co…

I read that Quibi does not own its content. The content creators do. I don't understand. How could Quibi possibly spend $2B in 6 months when it doesn't even own its content. What e…

PHP is implemented in C, right? What makes a PHP version implemented in a JVM 9x faster than PHP implemented in C?

Does anyone remember Fusion-IO? It used to have the fastest SSD on the market. What happened to it?

> I migrated the project from Go to C++ Any particular reasons why?

> As of July 2020, I’d suggest picking actix-web if you are writing a production API in Rust. What about server rendered websites that aren't API? Which framework would you recomme…

Is Fractal Tree Index what is used in TokuDB? While it sounds nice in theory, in practice it was very slow. The only thing TokuDB good at was bulk inserts. Other than that both wri…

Is this like a succinct data structure? Can the compressed data be used in place without uncompression?

I'm not familiar with casual gaming. How is Zynga doing these days? I remember them from the Farmville days when Facebook billed itself as an "application platform" and Farmville w…

Last committed 2017. Looks like it's dead?

Why does D perform so poorly for web programming? https://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/ I was expecting Rust or C level of performance for D. Instead, D performs on the same leve…

The SPDK RocksDB repo ( https://github.com/spdk/rocksdb ) seems to have been abandoned (last commit 2017). Is there a maintained version of SPDK RocksDB? Or SPDK any DB?
