    I use sparkey / hammerspace for caching static data (tried rocksdb but hammerspace was faster) for many years. It helps me have a 20ms on a 100r/s on a ruby on rails app (ruunning …

    I guess the people who are not aware of this effect might make a lot of decisions in life and a confident AI agent will be like a high-tech con-artist. As a child, I would read the…

    I don’t think it’s the ADHD. I have it but I’m very conservative on the stack. And I know many developers who don’t have ADHD, some newbie and some who code longer than 20 years an…

    In my experience, there's the "software developer" and the "formware developer," and as more companies go through a real "Digital Transformation," they begin to require their progr…

    As as person who got diagnosed with ADHD as an adult and looked back to a life of potential wasted, and while I don’t agree with calling the benefits of any drug “superpowers”, I c…

    The doctor recommended that I tried Strattera first and see if worked before trying stimulants. Atomoxetine is one pill per day and works 24 hours. But doesn’t work for everybody a…

    Have been taking Strattera for a few months and wonder how many years of my life I would have not wasted if I had been diagnosed with ADHD earlier in my life. I just turned 40 and …

    In the case of COVID, I don't think we need two years. My wife had COVID a few months ago and got beat up pretty badly. She would be the last person you would think would get serio…

    I believe that Brazil gives a good case study on the subject. The whole sector used to be state-owned and electricity used to be more expensive and outages a very regular thing. Cu…

    I would say the quality is relative to your input and to what type of application you need results for. If you are gonna use the pointcloud as a cheaper and faster alternative to L…

    DJI drones stores that on the image itself. No need to use the logs.

    I'm familiar only with the DJI drones and they do capture Pitch, Yaw and Gimbal and a few other variables as well. It stores them on the "extended" part of the EXIF.

    At work, we tried DroneDeploy and Agisoft, but we settled with Pix4D, expensive, but we got better accuracy and the people who operate the drones found it easier to use.

    I'm not sure how many outages I could avoid using Heroku, but I guess at least a few. One time I was using Docker for a 2 TB MongoDB and it messed the iptables rules. I notice ever…

    Exactly. I'm pretty sure if I developed the whole thing in C, it would be really fast. But I would be the slowest part of the development process.

    The 6k/req with 40ms is just at the front door. I'm talking about a real application here. With 100s of database and API calls on each web page load. I could make the whole thing i…

    Unfortunately, the fight goes even further than that when you go against the cloud. Last week I was in an event with the CTOs of many of the hottest startups in America. It was sho…

    I'm very familiar not only with the voting laws but the campaigns laws. In my opinion, the voting laws in Brazil are not bad. The US is very different than Brazil. One big differen…

    It's a very different story in Brazil. Trust me. I'm not only from there, I have been involved and know a thing or two about Brazil's politics. To start, in America the vote is not…
