The Thinkpad T490 (not the T490s) does have upgradeable RAM -- we settled on it for all our new developer machines. It's got an amazing keyboard and is fairly lightweight, but has every port you'd need, even VGA (and costs ~$1,000 for 8GB/256GB SSD).

Broken 7 years ago

It was released 21 years ago and its extended support ended 13 years ago

Huawei P30 Pro uses a 'periscope' style design (using a mirror to put the lens alongside the phone's back instead of back-to-front) to get 5x optical zoom, so it can be done

The question is fairly bad, but reneging on the offer on your first day on the job isn't all peachy either.

Perhaps it would've been better to hold off on accepting until you have had the responses from every potential employer (Source: have had people not show up on their first day of work way too often)

Heroku Kafka 10 years ago

One key ability is to batch updates.

We just implemented Kinesis (AWS service similar to Kafka) to reduce load on our Elasticsearch database (~50GB) when running hundreds of individual jobs.

Individual tasks (implemented in Celery, actually running off Redis) push to a Kinesis stream which is then consumed in batches by a very simple processor.
