  • Is The Storage And Compute Decoupled In Modern Cloud Data Warehouses?

    Stack Overflow

    True decoupling generally requires object level storage because it's extremely distributed, redundant, and easily redistributed and duplicated. that's important because in order to decouple storage from compute in the cloud or any large distributed computing paradigm you need to shard (split) your data (storage) amongst your compute nodes... so as your storage grows linearly, object storage which is flat -- allows that to happen without any penalty in performance -- while you can (practically)…

  • Angular.js Date Changes When Submitting To HTTP Timezone Issue

    Stack Overflow

    I think it is a TZ issue, b/c the difference between your GMT+0100 and your StartDate=2014-06-09T23:00:00.000Z is 5 hours.

    .

    The issue:
    Your local time is currently BST (British Summer Time) equivalent to GMT +1

    This is going to be the default time when you make your API call.

  • Can I Delete the Windows Folder C:\ProgramData\Package Cache\?

    Stack Exchange: SuperUser

    There is a new Windows folder full of installers located at C:\ProgramData\Package Cache\. I believe this is from Visual Studio 2012 RC.

    Can I delete these gigabytes of data without consequences? Are they all temporary files? It's a beta product so I'm not sure there is much information out there about this folder.
    -------------------
    TL;DR: Do NOT delete this folder
