In a way, I also take a lote of notes that I never read back, but the actual process of taking the time to write it makes it easier to remember. If it works the way, when you take a photo, even if you don't look it back, the fact that

it's pretty interesting especially for those of us who are creating analytics tools on top of postgresql, the increase performance would certainly permit less denormalized work-around , like creating "manual" aggregate direct

I've posted reasons why here : https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10949667 more reasons: On error handling, in Go most of libraries and even some part of the std lib, erros are constant string, which mean that for ex

Rust made sense for me for that case because: 1. rust handle erros in a VERY expressive way, and I do want my services to log ANY errors, and to be sure to miss any (kind of like what go permits too , but Rust Errors are more flexible) , so

I was wondering: As the HN crowd seems to have quite a lot of Rust supporters, would it be a good selling point in a job description ? i.e if (it's just currently a personal hypothesis) a company were to consider to (re)write some part

For me the big things missing (not only for big open source projects) 1. more than one level of subdivision for groups/projects (see below) 2. groups of users (call it department/team): because of 1 we have a lot of groups,

How do you manage things like database schema (except by switching to schema-less database :) ), is it your software which is suppose to create it if non existing ? In case the database is pristine, ok I see, I do a "create table if no

Thanks for this information, I was thinking it was following semantic versionning and looking to the changelog I thought it was big changes.

yes, that's what it is for outside of the release cycle to know if a given software work. But here it's an announcement where you explain changes to the community between previous version and this version. So I was thinking that i

sure, I'm not saying the team should take the burden of doing the testing on a given set of windows software (even the 100 most popular one, whatever it means) What I wanted to express is that, as I guess the development is followed by

Thanks a lot to the team for these improvements As a normal man, in addition to the technical changelog, what would be interesting for me to have is a list of software that can now be run by wine, or that have a significantly improved exper

The scalar and return types are really a great improvement IMHO, I can't wait for Doctrine to fully support it for code generation. But one thing which is missing is the nullable types, as currently it's either you always return a

I second that, especially for the bonus point part. You'll need note anyway, one day or an other, and writing them on the wiki/knowledge/whatever of the team rather than on a sheet of paper, will also permit you to have some
