rochoa··on Containers are available in public beta for simple, and programmable compute
Math is not wrong for the standard instance.

This is about using and abusing the _on-demand_ part.

The first example in the Getting started goes with sleepAfter = '10s'.

rochoa··on Datastream for BigQuery Preview
From the documentation (https://cloud.google.com/datastream/docs/behavior-overview#p...):

> When using the default stream settings, the latency from reading the data in the source to streaming it into the destination is between 10 and 120 seconds.

rochoa··on Kerf Time Series Lang and Columnar DB Open Sourced
There is also https://github.com/kevinlawler/kerf

> Kerf2 is designed for full concurrency. It also adds transparent type promotion, a C++ instead of C basis, and more.

Which goes unlicensed right now and was created just a bit before the license change in Kerf1. I wonder if Kerf1 will get any more attention or the focus is now at Kerf2.

rochoa··on Start a timer via the url
The timeLeft -= 1000 approach is not the best one because setTimeout doesn't guarantee when the next tick is gonna happen.

Just open the JS console and type:

  for (var i = 0; i < 1e7; i++) {}
You will block the JS execution and your next tick will happen when the loop finishes. Using new Date().getTime() should do the job.

Edited for formatting.

rochoa··on Ask HN: How does Google uses the Go Programming Language?
For instance the golang.org website is running on Go: http://golang.org/doc/go_faq.html#Is_Google_using_go_interna...

Google open sourced vitess for scaling out and coordinating (sharding + replication, schema rollouts) mysql databases, it seems they use it internally: http://code.google.com/p/vitess/

rochoa··on Thoughtbot's Playbook for developing apps
First: thanks a lot for coming with all this.

Now, some comments around navigation:

* Keep the left menu open for the section I'm currently viewing so I can easily go to the next subsection.

* Without JavaScript the drop down menu doesn't work.

* It would be nice to be able to have all items in navigation always displayed.

Edited for list presentation.
