It checks if any of the deprecated features are used. 4.0 removes classic queue mirroring, changes the underlying metadata storage to khepri and introduces many improvements. Inste…

Yes, JIT is enabled. Slowness is quite relative to the use case. Which part do you find slow?

httpc is good for a one off request, but it is not very up-to-date with the latest features of the web. So building application logic on top of it is not ideal.

This was (is) the case for classic queue mirroring. Quorum queues use a raft implementation and can synchronise the delta. As of now, the two major features missing from quorum que…

I use instagram and my own webpage. The single biggest problem I have is consistency. For me art is a hobby, so I don't always have the time. So my instagram engagement is all over…

This happens a lot in mathematics. Definitions that depend on intuition usually have very weird edgecases. When you formalise a definition and explore the definition to a “wider” d…

I had a similar experience early in my career. To me it was eye opening to see some masters keep investigating problems without getting emotional. I learned how not to care about t…

If f is linear, then f(a)=f(a+0)=f(a)+f(0). So f(0)=0.

> Most native speaks have little knowledge of the grammar and syntax beyond intuitive. The fact that they don't know the scientific names of the grammar rules doesn't mean that the…

I know what you mean, and a number that is not infinitely precise is an interval (i.e. a set of numbers). e is a number that is quite hard to pin on the imaginary number line, beca…

RabbitMQ runs perfectly fine on Windows too. As others mentioned in the comments, RabbitMQ supports a great variety of use cases. If you want to reach out for help, you can find my…

I recommend going through presentations of the RabbitMQ Summit. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCp20sSF_JZv5aqpxICo-ZpQ There are some big companies talking about their experience…

It is a great book, indeed. I always recommend it.

With clustering, you can have more nodes and you can shard (distribute) your queues over the cluster. You don't need to mirror every queue on every node. But you are right, mirrori…

Author here. I've seen quite a lot messages going through RabbitMQ. I wouldn't worry too much about scaling, because the possibilities depend very much on the architecture. With so…

I was in similar situation. I didn't quit, and spent quite a lot of time figuring out what was the real issue that me miserable. It turned out it was something I could change witho…

Co-author here. The problem with number crunching or maths is that it is very difficult to cut the whole computation into smaller units and pre-emptively schedule it. If it is poss…

I have played with this idea recently lately. I consider almost all code out there as legacy. I was talking about it at a conference also explaining how I like working with legacy …

Regarding debugging, I left a comment higher in this thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20359699

BEAM based languages lack "good" debuggers, because they historically depend on tracing instead of debuggers. I recently wrote a blogpost about the tracing landscape in Elixir. htt…
