The central SVN is much better for tracking versions for release purposes, while the local git has all the benefits of working on one thing than switching to another.
Any thoughts?
My experience is that as soon as I mention that I'd soon move back to my home country (in Eastern Europe), the conversation dries up, as 99.9% of the SV companies that contacted me are only looking to move talent to SV, and don't want to have remove positions.
I won't shed a tear if callback-hells are replaced by proper async APIs (like in Stream and Future-based dart:async, or the Thenable in the new JS standards), but this article seems to be misalinged.
Downvoters: care to elaborate?
Ideally what I'd like to see for a small team is to run a $5 digital ocean instance that does at least a mediocre job of managing assets in a database and triggering the static export of the site. Unfortunately I haven't found anything that a non-savvy user would consider as useful. Any idea for that (or alternative for contentful)?
After that, you could introduce locally distributed cluster. Later on you could introduce geographically distributed cluster setups. But just because the later is very complex, does not mean that you can't start with the basic setup.
Is it such a hard problem, that no one is able to solve it, or it is not a concern or interest of the parties that are developing Postgresql or the tools around it?
(And by hard problem, I don't mean surviving an aphyr-level diagnostics without any issues, but it it would be certainly nice to see such too.)
Edit: I'd settle for a multi-master replicated cluster, where the node failures and startups (and the migration of the data) is handled transparently in the cluster. I know that there are many other aspects, but even this basic case is painfully hard to achieve (much harder than with MySQL).
I work in the US on H1B, and I have been already declined to open an investment account in my home country in Europe, just because I was subject of US tax and have SSN. They told me that I'll be open the account once I move back to Europe and lose my US tax status.
