Picking an Active-Active Geo Distribution Strategy: Comparing Merge Replication and CRDT
Modern distributed applications are fuelling the growing demand for distributed active-active, multi-master databases. While most popular databases support multi-master deployment, different databases employ different techniques. LWW, MVCC, merge replication and CRDTs deliver eventual consistency, offering read and write access with local latency and remaining available during network partitions.

Developers. Our Last, Best Hope for Ethics?
In March, Stack Overflow published their Developers’ Survey for 2018 and for the first time they asked questions about ethics. The good news is that to “Do Developers Have an Obligation to Consider the Ethical Implications of Their Code?” nearly 80% responded “yes”. However, only 20% felt ultimately responsible for their unethical code, and 40% would write unethical code if asked.

Models and Their Interfaces in C# API Design
Traditional MVC, MVP, MVVM, Web MVC; the common element in every UI pattern is the Model. And while there are many articles discussing the view, controllers, and presenters in these architectures, almost no thought is given to the models. In this article we’ll look at the model itself and the .NET interfaces that they implement.
