    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 backin…

    This is the kind of malware I can get behind.

    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 pa…

    I'm joking about the quality of the products I make, to be clear.

    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 Gentl…

    Deliberately not an actual name, but I'm guessing the actual one he referenced is along those lines (he specifically mentioned it being Nordic)

    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…

    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 entirel…

    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…

    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…

    dude what dealing with ruby gems is like 50% of iamdevloper's schtick.

    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 …

    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 fol…

    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 m…

    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/iR2…

    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 sync…

    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 co…

    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, asi…

    Chiming in here. I would absolutely love to switch to Firefox for a host of reasons, ranging from "I don't want to use Google products" to "I love the tabs". Unfortunately, it's co…

    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 or…
