Are microservices really the future?
Serious question. I know there are a lot of memes about microservices, both advocating and against it. And jokes from devs who go and turn monoliths into microservices and then back again. For my line of work it isn't all that relevant, but a discussion I heard today made me wonder....

Is the Java ecossystem of languages and related stuff a thing, professionally?
I'm in the course of pursuing a change in my career towards software engineering/architecture. So far I've been brought mostly to C#/.NET and Java, though Java attracts me more, even considering that it might be a "dying" language. Still, Scala and Clojure are there, so I thought that they might give a pump at least to JVMs. In...

Computer Scientists Invent an Efficient New Way to Count ( www.quantamagazine.org )
Traditionally, algorithms for counting distinct items in a stream of data would store all the items. A new algorithm, called CVM, uses randomization to estimate the number of distinct items with minimal memory usage. The trick is to keep track of items by recording them and then randomly deleting some. The probability of an item...
