Oh Lord. You’ve just triggered a horrific memory of how in my first job we used XSLT to convert xml files of job applications into sql that was then executed to import them into the db. That truly was mind bending.

Weeeeeeeell a div is 100% width by default. It will always fill the width of the parent container unless you explicitly change the width.

Is that true? There’s a preflight request that checks with the server as to what’s allowed and then the browser issues the original request if it’s ok, right?

My go to pointer for this is to read the Postgres docs (and / or source - which is also super readable). https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/planner-optimizer.ht...

They are, yeah. I didn’t realise to start with. I played a couple of older games and managed to get 0 miles on one too - though there was a hint in the second photo that got me within 12 miles and it was easier find it from there.

Have just skimmed it and this is a great intro to the weird and wonderful world of rendering text. It gets even more wild as you descend down into the myriad ways this information is specified within fonts. For bonus points dig into how fon

I still don't totally understand that first point. Are you talking about using enums for controlling the connection itself? Can you give an example? Just to clarify, sqlalchemy supports any arbitrary mapping you want — it's entire

I would argue "certainly not", since it's had them for more than half its lifetime.

By the time you've done a generated column you might as well go with the articles solution of using text with a check constraint since you're now using the space anyway.

Oh nice. I didn’t know about that feature.

by aidos 3y ago
I could definitely have done with that idea a couple of weeks back!

Happy to ping you guys over the code if you want to look. It’s probably fairly tweak-able to handle your specific cases.

Heyya! Close customer here. > When False, uses VARCHAR + check constraint for all backends Is this behaviour new? Or is it that alembic still doesn't pick up changes to the enum to recreate the constraint? We implemented our own ale

For us it was driven in the other direction. With the introduction of the M1s we knew that we’d be on arm locally soon enough. There was a bit of work in the transition but things have improved since then. Definitely happy running on all ar

Is this in the context of students learning to code, or something else where they need to use the notebooks to supplement their study?

They definitely look very different. I understand how ESLs work, but I don’t quite get how these move. Can anyone explain?

There are tough problems at every layer of the stack. Granted, the problems look very different, but they’re no less challenging. I think that is one of the great things about being a software developer - wherever you look, there are intere

Unfortunately eventually everyone gives in to the marketing team installing plugins. And to be fair, they’re just trying to do their job and you get sick of saying no. We all know how it ends though…it’s a sea of issues waiting to happen.

Ah, I read through the stuff you guys were working on a while back. We use docker but haven’t made the leap to k8s and friends yet. One reason is that we too have dedicated backends per user and it doesn’t seem like an out of the box fit (n

I haven’t tried but I believe you can do either. You can use their api and tooling and it will connect to agents in your infra.

Just to echo the other comments- really impressed with both Depot and the team. I decided to kick the tyres on it last week and suddenly found myself replacing all our production docker builds with it by the end of the day. Felt like my Tai

Nice work! I keep wondering, there a reason everything isn’t just based off treesitter these days? If I were tasked with writing tsserver, my instinct would be to layer it over treesitter. Does anyone know if there are practical reasons tha

Yup exactly. I also keep an eye on the progress of incremental views because there are a lot of use cases. Where possible I avoid triggers, but I’ve also used that solution too. I’ve found that Postgres often gives the best results if you l

I use multi-column indexes for things like, “find me the most recent version of this template for this customer”. I really wish pg had a way to do partial indexes with limits so I could create a partial index that stores, for example, only

Which jobs are you thinking? Bus drivers? Taxis? Car production? Which loss of freedom are you referring to? I can’t help thinking that the potential upside will far out-way the cost. London streets are littered with dormant vehicles. Most

Don’t despair, it doesn’t have to be like that. Plenty of us have been doing this for decades and are still excited for what we get to create every day. Sounds like you need to escape your current environment.

An open source alternative to Notion is Outline. I’ve only looked at it, not used it in anger so I can’t offer much other guidance. https://www.getoutline.com/

I guess one issue with that is that it’s not going to play nice with data migrations. Personally, I’m happy with declaring my tables in sqlalchemy and having alembic do the grunt work. Allows me to work in the declarative way you describe w
