    Put all the compute and battery into a celtic torque around your neck and light weight raybans with full immersion on your face for a $1000 package and they'll capture the market.

    Whoever releases a pair of non-clunky glasses with eight hour battery that can do sufficient AR for under a thousand bucks will have the iphone moment and own the world. Looks like…

    I used a nosql database (Cosmosdb) when I should have used a relational database. The Azure cost plus the lost time in transitioning to SQL plus the cost involved in the implementa…

    I was on a savings goal to get a deposit to buy a house to be able to raise my family. I worked hard for the past few years. Then the house prices went out of reach, I got hit with…

    If your partner has adult ADHD separating finances save a ton of stress. Maybe happy couples with aligned spending and lifestyle expectations end up joining their accounts as an ou…

    This is what we do also. Monster PR's get glancing reviews and are risky and diruptive to everyone else's feature branches when they merge latest. So the smaller the better. Quicke…

    Cosmosdb still doesn’t support skip and take. And aggregate queries are incredibly inefficient. We’ve had to move a heap of data from cosdb to sql server, our reports ran from 3 ho…

    It would be more interesting to find what they did with their time before and after. And also the impact of UBI to the already employed. How their vocational prospects have changed…

    If I were the unfireable billion dollar CEO I'd be able to take time out of my job to drop off my daughter to school also. I'd also be able to afford the million dollar house close…

    I'm currently working remote and took the job over an on-premises gig in the big smoke. It's a 200 pay cut per day. However factoring in expenses in fuel and parking and car wear, …

    I use both. I even use text indexing, redis, queues and other things. Sometimes RDB is better. For other things it's easier and more scalable with document store. They need to know…
