First some background–I’ve always had a bit of a love hate relationship with ORMs. ORMs are great for basic crud applications, which inevitably happens at some point for an app. The main two problems I have with ORMs is: They treat all databases as equal (yes, this is a little overgeneralized but typically true). They claim to do this for database portability, but in reality an app still can’t just up and move from one to another. They do....

If you haven’t read the previous parts of this series yet, here are the links: [ Part 1 | Part 2 ]. A Refresher In the first part of this series I said that RAM access is the slow component of a modern in-memory database engine and for performance you’d want to reduce RAM access as much as possible. Reduced memory traffic thanks to the new columnar data formats is the most important enabler for the awesome In-Memory processing perf....

Trainspotting Definitely not the word I’m looking for, but it sounds cool I noted early on that I wasn’t the only sketchy-looking vehicle on campus. And the longer I’ve been doing this, the keener my eye has gotten to the subtle, but telltale signs of “unconventional” or otherwise “alternative” living situations: windows tinted a little too deeply, parking just slightly farther away from a building than everyone else, a f..

Day after Codemotion 2015, this is my overall opinion of the event: meh. Don’t get me wrong, technical sessions have been quite interesting, full of really nice people and organization must have worked really to get the event running. But, in my opinion, this event is dying of success. Way too many assistants, making really hard to walk from one session to another (even having 15 min between them), or having to arrive 30 min before start if....

So the Chase mobile banking app does not work properly on my new Google Nexus 5X phone. When taking a photo to deposit a check, the on-screen preview is rotated 180 degrees. This makes it really awkward to try to center the check because when you move the phone intuitively to fix alignment, it gets worse not better. I googled this and found it's a known problem due to some technical details about this particular phone and it requires the ....

in which we explore the power of macros, and macro-writing macros, to DRY out repetitive code. I’ve been writing Clojure code full time for nearly two years now. I have a pretty good feel for the language, its virtues and its faults. Mostly, I appreciate its virtues (though I still wish the REPL started faster). For me one of the language’s attractions has always been that it’s a Lisp — a “homoiconic” language, i.e., one defin....
