Could you add some details about your scale?

Looks like you’re blaming Postgres for Something that sounds like Sequelize’s fault. You should try prototyping parts of your application in a language that is better supported. Last I used Sequelize I was disappointed at how poorly it fared compared to other libraries like Django ORM or SQLAlchemy.

I'm sorry Michelin star means squat for Indian food. I have tried both and they are pretty crappy.

Just FYI - India is not a homogenous society. It has 22 official languages, 29 states + 7 union territories, 9 officially recognized religions.

So, no, there is no "Indian head wobble". What the fine article describes is a distinct cultural thing amongst a very specific subset of India's population that western society has encountered so far.

Only 6 weeks to find a boy amongst 7.6 Billion humans with pictures taken 30 years ago. The power of the Internet is indeed humbling.

You obviously have not dealt with the US government. Take it from someone who was, is and will likely be scarred several years from dealing with the US Government (esp. US Immigration), this scenario is very real.

I don't think his response was "doubting" but rather disbelief. Given the circumstances, I would expect that.

No. Any company can use existing satellite launch companies to launch their constellation. You don't need to be a "rocket company" first. There are plenty that can do this on the cheap - ISRO for example.

Could you illustrate, preferably with an example, how weak type system would have worked better than a strongly typed system?

This is just great. This is the web framework I have been hoping someone would make!

Could you cite an example of how Scala is unsuitable for the web? Between Scala and JavaScript, I would pick Scala in a heartbeat for one reason alone - it's strongly typed. Both of them offer OO & FP.

What issues did they run into with Cassandra? It's not easy to build a scalable database like Cassandra. There are good reasons to write your own distributed storage system but the authors need to add more details about Keevo and specific issues they ran into with Cassandra.

I don't get it. How are these voices going to be heard outside of the echo chamber of the community? For voices to be heard by the broader population, the echo chamber needs to be open and inclusive.
