In the U.S., near AWS East, and 1.1.1.1 times out.

Does Amazon use basecamp internally?

This question has come up a few times, so you can search to get other opinions.

My own is rust can be conquered with enough patience and time, but because of the high entry costs it will always remain a niche language.

I've written C and C++ professionally, also used Go and Rust on hobby projects. Rust, by far, was the hardest to learn and get something useable out of it. Because of that, I would never recommend someone put it into production unless they have a very specific use case that Go could not handle. The onboarding costs would be just too much.

I do like the concepts behind it, and thought it would be the answer to Go's limitations in expressiveness.

I do still hold out hope for it though. I think with the right tooling and development environment it could one day become useable, just like Java and C++ benefited.

Interesting. I worked on a larger project that used Oracle and a similar approach. The maintainers of PG actually advocate for this abstraction as well (maybe not the multiple responses, not familiar with that aspect) but most developers and frameworks ignore it.

I haven't seen anyone mention developer skill yet. We tried microservices where I work, but the developers skill in debugging async code proved to be problematic.

My feelings are similar. Current AI seems to be the infinite monkey theorem put into practice. I'm not saying it doesn't work, it obviously is, but I wonder what the limitations of it are. When do we start running out of monkeys too the point that only nation states, and companies with the resources of one, are able to achieve the next level?

Curious why have postgres and SQL server?

I'm honestly surprised no one has said it yet, but you shouldn't be thinking about tools at this stage. You should start on Monday and see what they are using, identify where it's not working and propose a solution.

It's simply to early to think about the solution at this stage.

(With that said I manage a remote team and we use kanban on trello, heroku and slack. We only meet as needed)

Without miners wouldn't the problem just be no more new bitcoins, so while the total would never grow we could still trade them?

I believe it was Andy Grove who suggest no more than 6-8 direct reports for this reason.

Hurray! Now they just need to make it part of an analytics program so we can let the users tell us what code is never running!

Why would one want to though? (edit) as in why choose this and invest hundreds (thousands?) of development hours doing so. What ROI would support this?

I'm not sure the primary value was due diligence. I think the value was more socially driven. You could ask anyone "did you see the front page story yesterday?" Much like you can talk about the weather and movies, newspapers were a way to connect and have a common experience.

I hate to pile on, but we introduced react and redux at my startup and it (the project, not the company) largely failed due to the increased complexity of redux itself, and a coding style of hyper abstraction.

Maybe it works on large teams and code bases, but it is unnecessary on smaller teams where sane code practices are enough.

They are in somewhat related business, but not that comparable. Blue Apron is more akin to peapod without a delivery fleet and less choice.
