SQS does offer long polling, which looks closer to "push" semantics.
agrothberg··on NMN: A Stable, Reliable NAD+Activator and Anti-Aging Molecule (2020)
I take 250mg / day of NMN from NOVOS Labs (https://novoslabs.com/product/novos-boost/). I can't definitively say I feel the effects.

The site offers a nice write up on NMN: https://novoslabs.com/nicotinamide-mononucleotide-nmn-and-lo....

agrothberg··on SQLite extension for querying Google Sheets as virtual tables
This is somewhat similar to the Shillelagh adapter for Google Sheets: https://shillelagh.readthedocs.io/en/latest/adapters.html#go... which uses apsw to add a virtual table for Google Sheets in which the implementation is in Python.
agrothberg··on Ask HN: Who wants to be hired? (May 2019)
I really love this monthly thread and was wondering if anyone knows of any thing else like it? i.e. some forum where people (esp in tech) looking for jobs can post?
agrothberg··on H-1B Employer Data Hub
Not sure why this is flagged. I wasn't asking for identifying info just application level detail of e.g. the salary.
agrothberg··on H-1B Employer Data Hub
Does www.uscis.gov host employee level data along the lines of what sites like h1bdata.info offer?

agrothberg··on Uberalls – Track code coverage metrics with Jenkins and Phabricator
Why do they use Coveralls to check coverage for this project (see badge in README)?
agrothberg··on GitHub and Jupyter IPython Notebooks
It would still be nice if IPython Notebook had an option to save the code separate from the output, for example as two files in the same directory. This would make source controlling easier.
agrothberg··on Amazon Elastic File System
How does this compare to just using AWS Storage Gateway (http://aws.amazon.com/storagegateway/) sitting in front of S3?
agrothberg··on Advancing the realtime web
Looking over the fork graph: https://github.com/omniti-labs/pg_amqp/network there are clearly people with that feel that status-quo release is missing features, etc.
agrothberg··on Advancing the realtime web
This is another similarly stalled project: https://github.com/skariel/webalchemy

The post says: >We'd like to make more complex queries available via realtime push. In particular, efficient realtime push implementations for the eq_join command and map/reduce are fairly complex, and aren't making it into 1.16.

Will innerJoin be supported in 1.16?
