I would guess something like Apache Iceberg would be something close to this? https://iceberg.apache.org/

Is a table format which can be use via trino, spark, flink, java apis, pything API?

In the C#/.NET world this is the standard and it works very well. It definitely increases productivity to not have to double check each and every instance of violating a lint error, as you can just have the fix applied to an entire project without having to worry to much.

It takes a bit of time for old stock to sell out. If you pay attention, you can see a pattern in a lot of items that retailers tend to only increase the prices when their old stick sells out and new stock come in, and then there is a dramatic rise in the price of the item.

I think I'm the complete opposite. I want to hire you if you come in to interview. Interviewing for an open position takes up so much time from so many people during the process, why would I want to spend more time than necessary. When I'm in the interview I try to do everything I can to make sure you can succeed and looking for reasons to hire you, otherwise I have to spend more time interviewing.

Is $250K or 300K really that much compared to the amount of work / time these people need to spend going through formal education? With the additional stress that any decisions they make could adversely impact someone's life?

I mean software developers doing significantly less work can easily make this money while working half as much right? SW Dev working 8hrs a day can make this, whereas a doctor working probable 60-80 hours a week makes the same?

FYI a lot of the .NET Framework is also opensource https://referencesource.microsoft.com/

"Along the left side, we see the standard volume buttons and mute switch that continue to have the same solid feel and clean clicking action. As I discuss in the iPhone 6 Plus review, going by Consumer Reports' data it seems that there is a weak point near the bottom of the volume rocker, although it's far less likely to be an issue on the iPhone 6 due to its smaller size."

He mentions it on the third paragraph.

Thats true, it seems like a huge expense to for a shift:

Boston Cab charges [the undercover Globe reporter] the standard shift rate of $77, plus an $18 premium for a newer cab, as well as a city-sanctioned, 30-cent parking violation fee. Factor in the sales tax ($5.96) and optional collision damage waiver ($5), and his cost per shift is $106.26, not including gas.

But then you have to factor in that for UberX you have to own your own car, your own insurance and you have maintenance costs associated with your car. Probably still comes out cheaper / have more flexibilty with UberX, but would like to see a more in depth comparison of the costs of both.

This plan is still available I believe as I got this plan at the beginning of December.

All you need to do is get a new sim card from T-mobile.com which is usually close to free. And then activate the sim card online. Going through the steps you get to select your prepaid plan, and the $30 a month plan is one of the options.

Even if they did, I'm not sure how they would enforce this. I'm sure all other cleaning services have this clause in their contracts with workers, but it probably still happens on a frequent basis as there is little chance of them finding out.

I have to agree with this sentiment. I'm in nyc. I've hired several cleaners for my apartment through different services, and each cleaner I got was very different than the one before them, even through the same cleaning service. After I found a cleaner I liked and trusted, I just contacted them directly (via text) to book a time to clean.

I don't see how you would prevent this from happening? Its cheaper for me, and the cleaner gets paid directly with no commissions taken out.

I see this as a different situation from airbnb because this is a repeat service (weekly, biweekly, monthly) and this relationship will last longer than an airbnb relationship which is usually a one time deal.

How would this compare with something like in-memory sqllite database? I guess the big difference is SQL vs NOSQL but would be curious about the performance difference.

It is webscale...

"Locking We use a database level lock implemented via a task-fair atomic spinlock queue for concurrency control ..."

Fantastic, database level locking!

Other than the pretty interface, what is the added value of using this over just going directly to edmunds.com? Its seems they have much better filters, sorting, etc. edmunds.com may not be the absolution best interface, but its functional, and doesn't seem to difficult.

Yup, in 2011 they has around 19,000 employees when they had their first major layoff. Kind of sad to see a once iconic Canadian company go downhill so fast these past couple year.

The classic google maps lets you do this with any number of points. Just the new maps removed this feature:
