You have to put your data somewhere... are commercial database vendors or nosql solutions that much better?

This is a lockfile, not the manifest for dependencies, so it includes all the translative dependencies as well. The list of direct dependencies is significantly smaller: https://github.com/sayanarijit/xplr/blob&#x2

Disagree with distributed monolith. It's a big team/small team thing. We converted a big monolith batch processing application to streaming + Kafka using what might be described as a distributed monolith and it worked great. Using

I think the deployment benefits have been even more overstated. This is an absolutely enormous trade-off between logical modularity and run time operational complexity. If your devs aren't good enough to enforce modular design in a sin

What is this random use of German? In any case, an Aufhebung has strong philosophical connotation that implies the process of synthesis -- so you're in luck, negation never fully destroys the thing it negates, it simply supersedes it.

For those of us who are only Rust hobbyists and don't have the hardware experience to work at Oxide, are there other companies you know that are pushing similar values? I'd take a major pay cut to have this kind of transparency an

What language runtime provides mocking/spy support? This seems excessively catered to IOC OO design, not the kind of thing a multi-paradigm language usually supports.

Curious to learn more about how jails + zones are implemented. In Linux land, I find the notion that containers are a coherent abstraction really hinders developers from understanding how their application is deployed.

by __jem 6y ago
The key is that "containers" don't actually exist -- they're just processes running under a variety of different namespaces.

Most of the JVM ecosystem doesn't work with AOT due to issues with reflection.

by __jem 6y ago
This isn't a defense of greenfield -- my point is that if we haven't had a need for AOT for the past ten years, we don't have one now. I imagine 99% of big Java apps are in a similar position. Getting a legacy Java app to com

The AOT stuff is cool, but honestly if we had compelling needs for that we'd just use another language. The scripting engine is incredible, though, and I think a real differentiator for the JVM.

Also, those collection types are backed by a number of concrete implementations.

It's definitely not a great fit if you have a ton of different state transitions, since the From impls add a lot of boiler plate. But I've found it perfect for situations where there's only a few very well defined transitions

Here's a good blog on the topic: https://hoverbear.org/blog/rust-state-machine-pattern/ . The last implementation of Raft uses this pattern.

My favorite rust state-machine-ism is consuming self by value when you transition. In combination with generics and From, this allows you to ensure that states are only ever entered into via the transitions you encode by implementing the tr

In other words, go is the language you want your coworkers to write, not the language you want to write. :)

I'd rather have more closely integrated hardware for a laptop. It's more efficient and leads to a smaller, more powerful device. I have a powerful desktop that I pay for incremental upgrades and it works great. I'm not in the

Is it not? Even if it's open source, I would view monolith frameworks as a form of ecosystem lock-in. We use Spring at work and I would certainly describe us as suffering from "lock-in" to the Spring ecosystem.

Abstractions are addicting for many developers, including myself. I switch between Go and Java. Go is the language I want my coworkers to use. I'd rather read "bad" Go code than "bad" Java code all day long. Bad Jav

Personally, I would just tile them vertically with the terminal taking up the bottom 10 or 5%, but you can also make certain windows floating with i3, which may be another solution.

I’ve thought about it! The keyboard is too important for me, and still being able to checkout source code locally and run a local ide tips it in the favor of laptops.

This is easily rectified by script authors by adding a main function invoked at the end. At a certain point, the argument simply becomes "executing arbitrary code is potentially dangerous", which is trivially true, and also not a
