The Narcissist's Playbook
(also Empathy Not Included), directed by Mark Vicente, is useful for one reason above the rest: it catches Sam Vaknin mid-performance and lets the mask slip on camera. This is not a survey of narcissism documentaries. It is about two men who built careers sel...

When you're building fast and iterating hard, Redis is almost always the right first choice for async message queuing.
