This slide deck might be nice as a wallpaper for a presentation, but it is not a good read. Is there a blog post targeting readers in the web?

As far as I know Google is supporting JetBrains in making the Kotlin compiler faster.

I've always found the .io domain somewhat laughable for tech companies. Maybe its popularity was fueld by Google's I/O conference. But except of legal affairs the climate crisis is the next reason not to rely on this domain.

Google has a track record of "uuups, it wasn't intentional" issues.

I'm not a Rust "fanboy". I'm not even a Rust developer, but I know the language somewhat. I've had my time with Go, but wasn't satisfied with it. Some things I didn't like in Go are better solved in Rust (

My thought was a bit deeper than that. Actually I wonder why are not more companies sponsoring PostgreSQL to get the features they need instead of paying Oracle?

Why not? I consider Rust to be superior in almost all respects apart from learnability and compile times. So if these two downsides are not more relevant than the downsides of Go (in a certain context), I don't see any reason why Go co

This could be done, of course. But how likely is such an approach to succeed? It would effectively create a new language and in turn to a new ecosystem. Why not just use a different language (Rust comes to mind) then?

Actually there are relatively few real (TM) open source projects driven by the community, at least if you look at important projects. Many open source projects are just commercial projects driven mainly by a single company. Look for example

What Alan Key describes reminds me of actor systems like Akka. Each actor is like a "cell" isolated from other "cells". An actor receives messages of arbitrary types ("messaging" and "late binding") a

I feel depressed if I read something like this. It is possible that there would be no human live in only 100 years or so! We would need a revolution right now. Do you have any hope that the humanity is able to turn it around?

The problem with orphan CSS is adressed very intuitively in Vue.js with single file components (HTML + JavaScript + CSS). https://vuejs.org/v2/guide/single-file-components.html

I think it would be far more manageable to just plant more trees. They were optimized for millions of years to pull CO2 out of the air and store it in the form of wood which is a fantastic material by the way. And trees are not only a simpl

Can you provide a linke to Google's paper? I'm really interested in it.

Scala support in IntelliJ is ok, but still not great. There are some Akka constructs IntelliJ underlines in red for years and JetBrains doesn't fix it. I've never seen something like that with Kotlin. The hard truth is that Scala

While Lektor doesn't look bad, I doubt it would be attractive for non-technical persons. I'm thinking of something more like Ghost, WordPress (with less features), but with static files as output.

UML is not as useful in pracitice as I had thought as student. Especially use case diagrams are more or less useless. Class diagrams are sometimes useful to get some overview. However class diagrams for design patterns are often harder to u

It sad for the UK, but maybe it can at least serve as a warning example to what populism leads.

Besides Node.js the main competitor is is Java/JVM. C# is a bit nicer than Java, but you can use Kotlin or Scala on the JVM. All in all I see no real advantage over the JVM/Java world - more of the other way around, since the .Net

The market share of Linux is somewhat pointless here, since this share comes mostly from Android and from a user's (and app developers) perspective there is not much Linux specific in Android. Goggle's plan to replace Android with

The JVM uses the memory to optimize the garbage collection, so it is a tradeoff between memory usage and speed (favoring the latter).

As much as I like Hugo, I recently stumbled upon the terrible Go templates! This is probably the strangest and most limited template engine I'm aware of. It might be nice in an application to actually limit what can be done in template

I really like the advide to think of the death of a loved one. This helps to put everything in perspective. When my father died suddenly some years ago, I felt a clarity like never before. All the fears, worries, and thoughts about unimport
