Can I ask some different questions then? Do you parallelize your current tests? Why or why not? Do they work out well for you?

>If your tests are fully isolated (and they should be for many reasons), parallelization ought to be almost drop in. You can set it up in github actions pretty easily. Good point. My experience is that super-long test runs also have depe

Bloom filters are small relative to the amount of data they can hash, but aren't realistic bloom filters still tens of kB at minimum? Might be too heavyweight to send up.

I haven't heard how Mozilla used it, but I know Google and MS use test impact analysis (among other techniques). Do you have a link? I'd like to see it. TIA's definitely not needed for a lot of well-designed projects, though

If you're using `pytest --some-options` locally, preface it with `spdr`, like `spdr pytest --some-options`. If you want help, run `spdr --help`.

by KingMob 2y ago
No, it's a good question. My tool spdr allows you to select the ref to compare to, but the default "smart" mode uses two different behaviors, depending on whether it's run locally or in CI. If it's local, it compare

That's what browsers actually did.

It didn't catch on because it was hard to see the benefits, and if done incorrectly, could actually make things slightly slower . Essentially, the server had to do things like compute RTT and understand the status of the browser'

Yeah, it's a shame you can't take advantage of natural HTTP/2 streaming from the browser. There's the upcoming WebTransport API ( https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/WebTra

Not the OP, but usually, when people talk about type safety, they're referring to some flavor of static typing, not strong typing. Very few languages still in use in the modern era are still weakly-typed. My personal take is that while

I think this is a mistaken assumption. Scala was always more popular than Clojure, and even now, I just checked with Google Trends, and Scala's still searched for 4x more frequently.

As someone who was equally deep (I worked with you and the Danes), I think a lot of that elitism isn't just about building software. It's a large part of why I've stepped back from clj these days.

tools.deps is less complicated mostly because it just flat-out does much less. To mimic everything lein can do required adopting half a dozen other libs and writing your own build scripts. It's better now, but people are pretty uncriti

Coming soon. Once DOGE eliminates the US government, we will all be either vassals of megacorporations, living in corp arcologies, or homeless with our punk band in burnt-out shipping containers.

I agree that words like "buy" are deceptive, but changing the language won't fix the underlying problem that it's getting harder and harder to actually buy certain things permanently.

Both things are true at the same time. Git is wildly popular, and a large part of that is its solid and fast technical underpinnings. Unlike its open source predecessors (svn/cvs), it excelled at distributed development. At the same ti

Unironically, it is. The underlying storage engine is git, which is rock-solid. But to put it this way, I've been using jj for almost a year, and even without a 1.0 release, editor support, or mature tooling, it's still such an im

There's no succinct command designed to work with mailed patches yet, but you could mimic it with a little scripting. Maybe something like this? ``` for patch_file in "$@"; do jj new patch -p1 < "$patch_file
