Schlieffen Plan - WikipediaThe fact that paths are a single continuous chain is a pretty big limitation. It means three way intersections are not possible using a single path. To create a three way intersection, two or more paths will have to be used. This means dealing with positioning and grouping different paths together. It also means that changes to a single path can lead to changes to multiple other paths.

The Engineering behind Figma's Vector Networksthey improved the pen tool by creating what they call Vector Networks
The Engineering behind Figma's Vector NetworksOne of Weber's main intellectual concerns was in understanding the processes of rationalisation, secularisation, and disenchantment.
Max WeberTogether they make humans rational.
Instrumental and value rationality - Wikipedia"Instrumental" and "value rationality" are terms scholars use to identify two ways individuals act in order to optimize their behavior.
Instrumental and value rationality - Wikipediasecular stagnation is a condition when there is negligible or no economic growth in a market-based economy
Secular stagnation - WikipediaGerman philosopher and social theorist in the tradition of critical theory and pragmatism.
Jürgen Habermas - Wikipediaviews language and thought as tools for prediction, problem solving, and action, rather than describing, representing, or mirroring reality
Pragmatismargued that inductive reasoning and belief in causality cannot be justified rationally; instead, they result from custom and mental habit. We never actually perceive that one event causes another but only experience the "constant conjunction" of events
David Hume - WikipediaHume followed John Locke in rejecting the existence of innate ideas, concluding that all human knowledge derives solely from experience
David Hume - Wikipediadisenchantment (German: Entzauberung) is the cultural rationalization and devaluation of religion apparent in modern society.
Disenchantment - Wikipediaeasy to build interfaces like chats or live log output

Jamie's Blog Posts – Learn all about the IBafter a busy week with loads of computer science, I have become a real cs student that at least knows what I am using. That actually makes me very proud haha.
Jamie's Blog Posts – Learn all about the IBThis reminds of Emily Dickenson’s poem; Success is counted sweetest, where the poet reveals the truth that only those who have gone through sufferings can understand success.

Jamie's Blog Posts – Learn all about the IBwe finally realized that the key to solving this problem is education. There might not be much we can do, but step by step, starting with helping those with computer difficulties by our side, we may gradually make a difference to this problem. This is our mission as Computer Science students.

Whispers in the Algorithm: Unraveling AI's Impact on Language and the Limits of our World (Pascal Vallet)Google is not a person. It’s many groups of people following locally-varying processes, rules, and culture. To that end, it makes no sense to either love or be angry at “Google”; it’s not a consciousness, and it has no sense of duty nor debt.

A Million Ways to Die on the Web - ArchiveteamHow we migrated our PostgreSQL database with 11 seconds downtime
How we migrated our PostgreSQL database with 11 seconds downtime - Government Digital Servicedon't forget to increase the DNS TTL now that the migration has been done otherwise clients will have to do DNS queries every second
How we migrated our PostgreSQL database with 11 seconds downtime - Government Digital ServiceDuring the migration there was a short period of downtime, roughly 11 seconds.
How we migrated our PostgreSQL database with 11 seconds downtime - Government Digital ServiceNow, when we wanted to swap the database that our apps would be pointing at, our migration script just needed to update the DNS weighting in AWS to 100% of results being sent to the target database location and wait 1 second for the TTL to expire. Then, when our apps next try to query our database they will be querying our target database.
How we migrated our PostgreSQL database with 11 seconds downtime - Government Digital ServiceThe first change was to create a user on both our source and target database that had the same username and password. This means that we don’t need to change the username or password provided to the apps during the migration.
How we migrated our PostgreSQL database with 11 seconds downtime - Government Digital ServiceRedeploying our apps takes about 5 minutes
How we migrated our PostgreSQL database with 11 seconds downtime - Government Digital ServiceWe also changed the password for the PostgreSQL user used by our apps, meaning that if the apps attempted to reconnect to our source database they would get an authentication error.
How we migrated our PostgreSQL database with 11 seconds downtime - Government Digital Servicewe planned how we would stop our apps talking to our source database and get them using our target database
How we migrated our PostgreSQL database with 11 seconds downtime - Government Digital Servicewe then started the DMS ongoing replication (also known as change data capture) task. This reads all the transactions from our source database transaction log that were created after the full load task began and sends them to our target database.
How we migrated our PostgreSQL database with 11 seconds downtime - Government Digital ServiceIt took about 6 hours for the full load task to finish.
How we migrated our PostgreSQL database with 11 seconds downtime - Government Digital ServiceIt was much quicker to first copy all of our data across and then add the indexes afterwards.
