I use a custom container image which bind mounts the current working directory, and has some popular coding agents preinstalled. There's also a firewall option, with a whitelist of hosts and IP addresses that the user can modify without having to rebuild the image.
Full-text search. It was only added to Clickhouse relatively recently, and is still in Beta. It's a core feature of ES from the beginning.

The client can set the timestamp to any value of its choice. It does not have to correspond to clock time.

It's not about all writes. It's about ensuring that all writes to a single partition (specifically, a single column within a single partition) are done using a source of monotonic integers to ensure ordering.
It's a reference to Mao's Cultural Revolution https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Guards
I hadn't heard of Prosus or Naspers before this. Apparently Naspers owns 31.2% of Tencent. Time to revisit my assumptions with respect to how companies are owned.
Kafka is an ASF project, and not controlled by Confluent. There is nothing stopping anyone from offering a hosted Kafka. You seem to be conflating Kafka with Confluent's own products.
No. Apache Kafka is licensed under Apache 2.0. The license change only applies to our Confluent software that was previously called “Confluent Open Source”: Confluent Schema Registry, Confluent REST Proxy, Confluent ksqlDB and some Confluent Connectors.
I love that they try to make it sound like they even have a choice in changing Kafka's license.
What lawsuit is this? The only one I can find is from September 2019, https://www.elastic.co/blog/dear-search-guard-users https://www.elastic.co/blog/dear-search-guard-users-includin...
Why not indeed!

Hadoop is not the same as Mapreduce (anymore). For instance, folks in my organization run both Spark and Mapreduce on top of Hadoop/Yarn.
This is probably what OP meant:
"They are made from a metal alloy with a more "active" voltage (more negative reduction potential / more positive electrochemical potential) than the metal of the structure. The difference in potential between the two metals means that the galvanic anode corrodes, so that the anode material is consumed in preference to the structure." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galvanic_anode
There's a typo there - "complements", not "compliments". "S3STAT is a service that compliments Amazon's CloudFront and S3 offerings"
He drank a bit too much of the class warfare kool-aid.
"You’ll find not only the usual date and time type operations but also functions for zipping files, processing XML, handling CSVs, and sending and receiving emails."
Oh dear god. This level of isolation is probably the worst outcome of being locked into a completely proprietary ecosystem.
I had zero Japanese. Rudimentary even now.
Tokyo, Japan: Applied for an opening I spotted on Linkedin. Interviewed via skype over a few weeks. Got the job, got the standard engineer visa, and that was it.
Much has been written on the topic. Here's a fairly decent book.

Nary a mention of the much higher levels of violence in hunter-gatherer societies, past and present.
Very true. Except that budget is a limiting factor when it comes to communication as well. A team is going to put much less energy and thought into communicating if they have their hands full.
Pakistan wants to be a Middle Eastern country.
India has practically no social security as well. Your definition of "Rational" does not come into play.
I'm beginning to wonder if this is actually universal. I've lived and worked pretty much all my life in India, and something like what the OP describes would be pretty much unthinkable there.
Disclaimer: I grew up in urban and small-town India, in a lower middle-class and middle-class environment. I have no first-hand knowledge of how it is in rural scools. Also, anecdotal evidence, so feel free to take it all with heavy dpo
Math and the sciences in school: Every memory of school I have has girls and boys in equal measure doing well in math and science. The teachers's pets are all the kids who do well in class, the well-behaved ones who were focused on studying. In our early teens though, you could actually see the girls doing better than the boys in every subject. This pattern continued through college as well. Most guys handled this situation by relying on their female classmates for notes and help with schoolwork. I did the same.
College: My engineering class had something like a 40% female to 60% male ratio. This varied by specialization. The mechanical engineering department had a grand total of 3 female students and a 100 male students. (This was because Mechanical Engineering was perceived as something physically demanding, and the jobs involved factory floors in far-flung remote towns and villages.) The computer science department had somewhat more than a 50% female student ratio. On the whole, apart from the Mechanical Engineering department, every department was hovering around a equal distribution of females and males. Note that this was not deliberate on the part of the administration. Engineering school admissions in India are purely a function of score in State-level and National-level entrance exams. For that matter, the faculty was also a fairly even mix of male and female teachers.
From the OP's post : "At an old job, someone in authority pats me on the head to dismiss an argument I’m making about something at work." In an Indian setting, this would be near impossible because Indian culture is terribly touchy about men touching women in general. So the condescension would probably be expressed in some other manner, possibly verbal.
Plus, with close to half the employees being female, there's never really a sense of female co-workers as a minority in the workspace. And even in the few all-male teams I've been a part of, most of the men have spouses or sisters who work in tech. This means that no one thinks of male techies as the norm over female techies.
Conferences: Just like the workplaces, there's a good mix of men and women at these. And alcohol is hardly ever an issue because no one serves alcohol at these events in India, not even beer. It's a bit of a social taboo.
Another thing to note is that in India, engineering, and specifically, software, is something of an aspirational field. It's considered one of the most desirable careers, and everyone wants in.
