Delayed impact is rarely taken into account. You fire people who's impact is going to show up 2-3-6 months from now. Same goes to maintenance. Stop doing maintenance you can save money in the short term. Should you stop doing maintenan

The real question is: what is the chance that somebody runs into this while implementing something common.

I use a lot of deep copy in my every day Rust and the performance is still 10x of my Python that I started to use in 2009.

For an anecdota it took me roughly a year. I was trying it several times. I still use .clone() a lot but it is getting better. :) The real question what is the use of Rust for you. Do you work on anything where Rust could be a value?

One detail I really like about this is that you can install packages during the script run. Mix.install([ {:req, "~> 0.2"}, {:floki, "~> 0.30.0"} ])

There are many layers of questions. At what percentage climate change is man made? What timeframe should we consider for the basis of measuring temprature changes? And so on.

If most infra I worked on was a single region one, sure. :) DR is so much easier in the cloud. You can have ECS scale to 0 in the DR site and when us-east-1 goes down just move the traffic there. We did that with amazon.com before AWS even

Same exact question I ask every single time. We just decided against k8s, again, in 2024. We are going to go with AWS ECS and Azure Container Apps (the infra has to exist in both clouds). ECS and Container Apps provides all the benefits of

This is insane: The Root CA certificate, etcd certificate, and API server certificate expired, which caused the cluster to stop working and prevented our management of it. The support to resolve this, at that time, in kub

We are between two mandatory vaccination programs pushed by the pharma lobby and now is the time to really get back to the office. I think we should get back the control of our lives from corporations. At this stage it is about profit and c

Wasn't this the last version before Matthew Dillon forked the project? I remember seeing some public arguments about SMP and few details of the kernel that resulted in fork and the new version 5.x.

Better yet, why do we need operating systems with the bloat that they got today? Win3.11 was a decent system at the time and if all they need is included in it and there is no security repercussions than I guess it is ok.

Our current understanding it that you can only travel forward in time. Could you explain how to do it backward?

by datadeft 3y ago
Because your language might not have a nice type system. For example Python -> JSON is going to produce worse guarantees than DHALL.

by datadeft 3y ago
Indeed why? However the conclusion I have is not to use JSON but to use a type safe configuration language that can express my intent much better making illegal states impossible. One example of such lang is Dhall. https://dhall-

I have the exact opposite experience. In fact for a while I lived on optimizing Java projects to meet with performance numbers even my junior Rust code can beat easily. Most Java devs have no idea how to write performant software.
