Author here. I wrote a fairly detailed writeup here[0] for those who are interested in the reasons for this approach. Ultimately you're right that npm doesn't work well to manage the situation Zod finds itself in. But Zod is subje

Hopefully our careers in software work out because we will not be successful as actors. Actually Ashcon will be fine.

We are releasing a proper announcement later! This video was scheduled to premiere at 10am but due to some last minute bugs (and Murphy's Law) the build didn't finish in time. We decided not to delay the premiere because it was al

This video is definitely corny. (I'm in it.) This is intended as an extremely accessible introduction to Bun, definitely not targeted at the HN crowd. I think we really just wanted to make something with some production value to reflec

Colin here, I work on Bun. Bun 1.0 is actually still compiling but we decided not to delay the premiere of this announcement video since it was already on calendars. We'll be publishing a full announcement post later today that's

Something like typebox (that's designed to map one-to-one onto JSON Schema) may be better if codegen is a priority.

We already have a Go driver as well[0] and you can get pretty far by executing queries over HTTP[1] though that's not as capable as a full client. As you said, the roadmap needs some freshening up. [0] https://github.com&#x2

We're still working out the kinks, but some form of this will definitely be possible. You can already hack this by defining access policies and writing an EdgeQL proxy server that authenticates incoming requests, sets the appropriate g

EdgeDB is a long-term effort for a DB/query language that's as intuitive as possible for the greatest number of people. The early adopters are primarily those who are frustrated by ORMs and/or SQL, as you'd expect. But

TypeScript's type system is unsound in a mathematical sense: https://effectivetypescript.com/2021/05/06/unsoundness/ Though this has little bearing on practicality which is probably why the original

Basically tRPC lets you define a router containing all your endpoints in a single structure. Then you can import the type definition of your router and make typed API calls without needing to wire everything together with types.

Exactly. But with faster iteration speed, more type inference, less overhead, and a TypeScript-native DX.

I wrote the initial proof of concept for tRPC a little over a year ago (though I'm no longer involved in the project). Seems like there's some confusion about how this works. A more complete description is available here[0] below

Seems like a lot of similar ideas! Database-first, typesafety, code generation. Though ultimately SQL has some core incompatibilies with object-orintation, and the active record pattern has some fundamental issues that Neward touches on in
