I use Jprofiler and I'm no stranger to using profiles but some issues with Clojure's performance aren't fixable with a profiling session.

I think you are right and I'm annoyed that you are. Because I think JavaScript is a really hard language to master. Ubiquitous yes, versatile yes but so full of cruft and bad design decisions that it really can put many people off prog

I fell in love with Clojure and fell out of it. It is a great language. Lisps have this inherent elegance to them especially in data transformation pipelines. That said I found its performance still a bit on the wanting side particularly if

Lol, I wonder what the throughput will be with all this extra spacing. Maybe the "take off your shoes" gang will have to let up a bit to maintain the proper distancing. Here's a conundrum for air travelers: are you all more s

Dark mode hurts my eyes. My vision is still good enough for black on white background text but the inverse colors make it physically hurt when I try to read the same text in the same font size due to the slight astigmatism that I have. Inte

This looks nice! Has anyone created BRIEF bindings for this editor?

Microsoft feels very schizophrenic at this point. On the one hand I think there exists a faction that wants to move more into the open ecosystem. On the other though there appears to be an entrenched faction that's hell bent on retaini

I frequently toy with the idea of creating a platform like this using Raspberry Pi or some other SBC where every customer gets not only their own database but their own app server and everything else on a small piece of hardware. Due to hea

Thanks. Came looking for this post. Way too many web developers just assume that everyone follows every nook and cranny of their ecosystem.

What an absurdity. Treating layoffs like a buildup to a product launch? From the outside that company has always seemed to me like it was mired in stupidity and they keep doing everything to reinforce this impression.

At the very least I hope the open concept office design dies of coronavirus. It was a bad idea all along.

This speaks volumes about how fraught with peril building microservices is. For me the prevailing message of this post is "don't do it at all unless you are willing to absorb this much complexity for the promised benefits".

There is nothing wrong with most developers working on and communicating about the entire code base. Having teams work in silos is not a benefit. You're touting as a benefit what is one of microservices' gravest issues - teams sto

The current situation is the furthest from being convenient in regards to layoffs. No company wants to be seen as heartless during a truly global tragedy.

You are a complete idiot if you think that what is happening in Hungary is in any way comparable to how Germany is governed.

This has been a thing in the last five years only. Prior to PiS all governments have been both appreciative and enthusiastic about the EU. Please don’t tar all Poles with the PiS brush.

Or even the Infection Fatality Rate. The only way to stop fumbling in the dark is to get a random representative sample tested. It’s not impossible there is a dark pool of great numbers of present and past infections that are causing people

I sincerely hope that Eastern Europeans will not fall for it. After being discriminated, ridiculed and targeted with Brexit now they are being seen as indispensable all of a sudden. English people have no shame. As a Pole I find their xenop

What’s the point when testing rates are so inconsistent across the world?

Does it even mean anything. The economic discontinuity that the virus will introduce is likely to alter all of these numbers in ways we can't predict. Most likely push salaries much lower after the layoffs hit on a wide scale.

This is probably a wave of margin calls forcing a lot of funds to liquidate. This contraction will reduce the money supply and scare this generation of investors.

I too think it's inane. Some of us want to get into the market but not at these prices. Yet the whole system is built around trying to push markets into higher and higher prices at all times. Here's a brilliant idea, introduce a r

Or the panic could be a great boost to the ocean ecosystems. Just like WWII was because fishing boats were afraid to leave ports lest they get caught in cross fire.

Interesting. I wonder if there is a point beyond which multiplying these abstractions doesn't really do anything to boost either performance or reliability i.e. will someone come up with a way to wrap and package kubernetes clusters in

Anything that represents numeric values as text will be an order of magnitude slower to deserialize than a binary format. I don’t have a published benchmark but in my testing which is easy to replicate I’m storing an array of around 50 mill

Something like it needs to exist. JSON is stupidly inefficient for large sets of numbers. Except a framework just like grpc has been around for 25 years... but shhhh, don't tell hipsters about IIOP, they are like new parents and need t
