Feed: Redis Labs. Author: Guy Royse. Like many software engineers, I enjoy a good game of Dungeons & Dragons. I love powering up my character and facing increasingly more powerful foes. Doing this right requires gold and experience. And the best way to get those things is a good old-fashioned dungeon crawl. If you need some context on D&D, this video might help. The short but overly simplified version: in D&D you explore underground complexes, fight monsters therein, and take their gold. Unfortunately, dungeons aren’t set up for the convenience of adventurers like us. Sometimes the monster is challenging but ... Read More

Feed: Domo Blog. Author: Scott Resch. At 7:11 a.m. MT on Wednesday, March 18, John Mellor was driving west on I-80 and nearing Salt Lake City when his phone started to blow up. When Domo’s chief strategy officer got a chance to pull over and check the messages, they were all about one thing: The 5.7-magnitude earthquake that rocked central Utah just before sunrise. Mellor didn’t feel the ground shake as he was heading down Parleys Canyon. But the timing was fitting. Because over the course of the previous month, he had certainly become familiar with seismic shifts. It all ... Read More

Feed: What's New. Author: Andy Cotgreave. In my section, I looked at how a chart itself can become a virus: starting in an academic setting, in this case with the CDC’s March 18th report on the outcomes of 4,226 COVID-19 cases in the US, and evolving into a variety of angles from news sources, and then onto social media. I showed how unequal age bands and a large amount of missing data were easy traps and might confuse people reading quickly and looking for something to share on social media. These traps don’t make this a bad chart: the CDC ... Read More

Feed: Redis Labs. Author: Guy Royse. I’ve got a problem. I have tens of millions of players in my online game World of EverCraft (Not a real game. But if it was, it would be from Blizzards of the Coast!). This is a great problem to have. So many gamers! But when a new user signs up, it takes forever to determine if their desired username is taken or not. It’s a simple enough query but the vast amount of data makes it slow. Switching to Redis helped. Instead of a simplistic but slow SQL query: > SELECT COUNT(*) FROM ... Read More
