I've had count(*) queries take like literally days in Postgres. Want to insert a lot of data? Expect it to cost a lot of RAM. It's got high features but some really rough edges too…

Yes I suppose the real question is would those employees "elect" for a 6 hour day with a 25% pay cut, or not...that would give you something of a feeling for whether the benefits o…

I heard once anecdotally that google side projects are sometimes "supposed to be work related" so not quite as free as you'd imagine, FWIW...or perhaps they're not dunno never work…

Did you negotiate the 6-hour-day up front or just...uh...you know...work 6 hours, as it were?

I get the same effect from eating "something with cheese on top" that I do from eating sugary stuff (makes me want to eat more, makes me feel less full). I always assumed it was th…

It's not clear if you're asking about solo developer or "solo company" as it were. Anyway, typically if you're doing a startup the advice is to get a partner. Then maybe you're not…

oh yeah text field, that's an interesting option and people might even use it as an easy work around [LOL]. I guess you could make the viewable size like 1 char then it won't be mu…

The only problem is if those subdomains have a password input field "somewhere" on their sites, AFAICT. Or are you referring to google's "later" plans to add a red exclamation poin…
