What do you expect to happen in other languages, when your program makes a million calls to `stat()`? Is that something that happens often? What kind of application needs that? Is there a language that solves this neatly? (I'm genuinel

I think the author's use of the microservices is unfortunate and confusing. With the BEAM, it is easy to create fully independent process trees. The architecture enables it. In fact, you can pull in dependencies and add them as "O

There are a lot of "Maybe"s in your second paragraph. I'd say, yes, there are a lot of lessons buried in old code, but often, there is an equal amount of baggage we are too fearful to abandon because of backward compatibility

I'm a software developer of 2.5 years, am developing an Angular SPA since two years. I mainly did refactoring on that day, so I had to make decisions by myself, anyway.

I've had one of the most productive days yesterday, because my internet went off. Went on a berserk coding spree from 1PM to 1AM with some small breaks in between. Completely cut off from any distraction, I was able to concentrate. Wil

I wonder why the developers of Lemmy decided to perform all the content requests via WebSocket instead of HTTP. Is there anyone out there who can answer this?

- Swagger is not the only API Spec framework. I think rather than serious REST APIs having Swagger, good APIs have (auto-generated) client libs. - in REST, you have no default way of querying data related to the current path. Of course, you

I think GitLab uses YAML Files representing changelog lines. This allows adding metadata such as dates, descriptions, authors, type, etc. without much hassle. This requires investing in some own CLI tooling, since creation and rendering sho

As a personal anecdote, I found that changing career to carpentry would likely improve the state of engineering for me personally. Not quite sure though, IoT would surely ruin my day eventually.

Yes, that is basically correct, but I think your assertions that "you cover all the cases" and "valuable in catching bugs" are not correct. For example, in C, you can define a Union type that can hold either a string or

A tuple usually has different properties compared to a Tuple. For example, you can have a List of type List<string>, which would be a list of any length containing any string. On the other hand, a good tuple implementation (especially

You assume that all webpages are "a bit of HTML", which is imho an arrogant way to look at Client-Side web development.

Hi, thanks for the reply. As I mentioned, I use milestones the way that you envision epics right now. I group all issues that somehow belong together, for which I want to track progress (and burndown/up over time) in a milestone. The m

You also have to be online with good connectivity within the app to view the menu for removing an album from the device. Presumably, because offline access means access only if you are really, truly, completely offline.

I think it's a misinterpretation of microservices to say that the purpose is that the teams can choose their tools and processes. Microservices merely ensure that the complexity of using different tools per microservice does not lead t

With the Elixir language, I find myself looking at the source code of my dependencies more often, since I can actually read and understand what's going on most of the time, despite barely coding in Elixir. When I do, I can look for ins

TypeScript does not offer perfect typing, but on the other hand, your example is wild in such a way, that I don't think I would ever encounter it with a professional team of developers. I.e. it would be quickly caught in a review, and

Please tell me if I am wrong, but I get the feeling that you conflate the idea of "bad programming and design of a system" with the actor model in general. You can do just as badly with an object oriented model as you can with the

A process is simply a function that runs independent of other functions in the system + a mailbox + a handle + own memory. So the convenient Syntax to define a process is a function declaration. Plus, calling "spawn" to start the

You can have 3 queues and 3 dispatchers, arrange some backpressure, a push-based consumer-producer model and you will have 3 queues, 300 queries and n polls per interval. There is a solution to every perceived problem.
