How about yanking the cords, or maybe a big red “shutdown” button

Looks like he was just at Burning Man so this behavior tracks.

Wow, lobsters seems refreshing! Invite only to contribute must be why they can run on sqlite so effectively. I've run into so many issues with WAL (real time market data) unless I'm painfully deliberate with reads and writes. Don't feel like jumping on the "ohhh invite me" bandwagon, but definitely subscribing to their feed.

I'm not going to stop using it because it's not "true open source." I'm going to stop using it because there's better databases out there.

I have such fond memories of Graphite's simplicity. Simply hit the server with a metric and value and BOOM it's on the chart, no dependencies, no fuss.

Just expose a way to explore hierarchies and measures, give me an ability to generate "alternate hierarchies" then let me run MDX and leave me alone! ORM and OLAP don't belong in the same sentence together.

Literally saw Obama's BlackBerries a week ago at the Crypto Museum! Great museum, worth going to if you're in the DC area and have access to a car.

No new Zelda, no new Mario. I don't know what Nintendo is doing but I am not a hyped up for the Switch 2 as I thought I'd be.

"only 3-5x faster... rarely makes sense to use Redis" This is an illogical conclusion. 3-5x faster is substantial!

Short sweet and to the point. Why isn't this a button in the bios, naturally hidden behind a few levels of menus? "Defrag your NVRAM" Other than power failures what would other failure modes be? I guess if the NVRAM has bad cells? Guess it's easier to just reset the whole BIOS whenever there's a problem?
