Cell-based architecture is the best for achieving linear scalability and decent reliability in distributed systems. A cell is a self-contained isolated system, which doesn't know about other systems and doesn't initiate communications with other systems. All the services inside

There'll always be more emails in need of reply, more meetings to attend, and more updates to read. A person can fill the entire workweek with these tasks over and over again. But to stay sane and sharp, you must pay yourself first by doing the work that actually means something

It your application cannot be built and tested on a local computer without access to the Internet, you are doomed - developers will always have a "good" reason why they couldn't work - the missing Internet or random issues with the dedicated CI/CD server. If your application
If you can't run your application test suite in three minutes or less, your business damn well better be worth a billion dollars or more. Otherwise it's time for fewer browser tests, fully txn-wrapped test cases, and local CI on Linux!

An important insight about software is that there's literally no limit to the amount of work you can generate. Part of the job of a product designer is to *limit* the amount of work people can do. If you don't, people will generate infinite amount of work. Meetings about how
For background, this video rant below is about a feature in Basecamp called Automatic Check-ins that simply polls everyone daily to write up what they worked on today. In their own words, on their own time, in their own way. Saved back to a simple text log so everyone can read

VictoriaLogs is a great database for SIEM events and logs: - It is optimized for storing, querying and analyzing billions of SIEM events and structured logs with big number of fields (hundreds per log entry). - It automatically parses CEF messages received over Syslog protocol

Cluster version of VictoriaLogs prefers consistent query results over the availability during querying. That's why it returns an error when some of the configured storage nodes are temporarily unavailable. There are practical cases when partial responses are OK when some of

VictoriaLogs v1.34.0 supports the ability to set the number of parallel data readers during query execution. This can help improving query performance over the data stored on a persistent storage with high read latency such as Ceph, NFS (and S3 in the near future).

Some time ago we received a report from VictoriaLogs user, which said that single-node VictoriaLogs couldn't scale to more than 300K of ingested logs per second on a machine with hundreds of CPU cores. This was unexpected. Initially we thought that the issue is related to high
