The movie was really beautifully done and I've wanted to read the book itself. Rest in peace.

I didn't realize there was a movie. Thanks for posting so I can check it out.

I will second, the graphic novel is excellent. Up there with Maus in terms of showing you a new perspective.

I think the movie came first, at least in the US.

The graphic novel in the US was 2003-2004, the film was 2007, unless I'm mistaken.

Thanks for the correction. I saw the books in the book stores several months after the movie release. I suppose they were doing a rerun to toe in with the movie's popularity.

The book is beautiful too, I recommend it.

One of the most surprising things about the movie was how precisely it captured the artistic intent of the book. A serious achievement by those animators.

I would recommend the book over it

They submitted with a spare Q at the end of the url.

Good catch. Maybe they meant to hit Shift+Tab after entering the URL to navigate the forms, but accidentally hit Q instead.

Agreed.

I keep thinking about doing future ones semi-public (need to sign up to be allowed to post) but I already spend more time on the book club than I particularly want to so I mostly just keep doing the same thing which works fine enough. It's also not unlikely we'd repeat a book in a few years (for example we'll read DDIAv2 probably next year). So for now, join the mailing list and new readings as they happen.

If you start one your own way and you read interesting books I will happily tell people about yours. :)

Me too. Everyone should email O'Reilly.

Hey folks! I'm sorry, I didn't expect a paywalled article to get posted here and I don't have the means at the moment to give out gift links (the site is entirely custom other than the use of Lemon Squeezy for payments) but if you check back in a week the paywall will expire.

You can also in the meantime check out Monastery, the project that automates Hermitage on GitHub: https://github.com/theconsensuslabs/monastery.

The Accord developers mostly work at Apple so it would seem Apple at least wants/needs ACID transactions for Cassandra.
