I don't think it's good science to say that every difference comes from discimination. For example, the poorer you are, the higher are your chances of dropping out. This is not discrimination against poor people. But, at least to

Of course a company trying to sell you services to help compliance is going to say that this business is "high risk".

And the other part that comes with that is that no one that achieves what the Beatles did doesn't work as hard as they did. As you said, necessary but not sufficient. Hard work exposes you to opportunities, some people have better oppo

Why? It seems like they can easily get a proprietary license. Or do you mean that no larger corp will use it for free?

Just to push back on your first paragraph, there is no "we in HN". HN is composed of individual people with various degrees of belief in "HTTPS everywhere" and "mass Surveillance is bad", especially since many

Some of them do, for type resolution. Rust has Chalk: https://github.com/rust-lang/chalk , Haskell has something that can be used too: https://aphyr.com/posts/342-typing-the-technical-interview .

I use regex101.com, that looks a lot like RegExr. I remember using RegExr at some point, and I think I default to regex101 just because the name is a bit easier to remember. I'll try to remember to switch to RegExr since it's open

My idea behind "make things that are different look different" doesn't come from language (at least not written language) but from visual media in general. For example, on a industrial machine or in a guide, people will often

That's a good point. I think this is my lack of experience showing here, mixed with lots of marketing aimed at people like me. After all, you can sell a managed Postgres for a lot more than you can sell a managed SQLite.

That's nice to know, I'll keep an eye out for when it comes out.

I see how SQLite being just a file makes it easy to do lots of things from a developer point of view. However, I'm looking at this from a "business owner" point of view, at which point it's not just a file, it's my

I see a few people wanting to rewrite tsc in something else than Typescript because tsc itself is too slow. I don't remember seeing any "proof" or analysis that Typescript is the limiting factor in tsc. The basis often used i

I'll be honest, I would consider running SQLite in production, at least for my personal stuff, but the part that scares me is that there's no "managed SQLite" offering and I would have to manage it myself. Litestream see

On the other hand, in your sane world, productivity would be a fraction of what it currently is, for developers and users. You favor computer time over developer time. While computer time can be a proxy for user time, it isn't always a

Thanks for the info. 5-10ms seems great, and a real plus for user experience. As you said, cold starts seem to be a killer, especially if you're trying to optimize the slowest requests.

That's a good point. I can see it working with static typing by being more liberal in what you accept as enconding, and accepting a validation function that would take the type of the encoding (for example string) and returning a boole

On the other hand, the cost of not using those things can be not getting a good job, or not being able to do your job, which has costs too. A small difference in work done can be the difference between keeping a job and getting fired.
