   Where are you? At the big stores in Brooklyn for a while there was no flour. But now going to smaller stores I see it no problem. Seems like less of a shortage issue than just that most folks in my area are all inefficiently picking their g

   I hadn't heard of this one. Nielsen Norman [0] is another research institute for UX I've found very valuable. Much (or all?) of NN's research is freely available. [0] https://www.nngroup.com/

   This is awesome! Twitter has been my goto for posting TILs for about as long. Now I regret not collecting them in a more coherent format like this. Sara Soueidan has a similar log oriented toward UI work: https://www.sarasoueidan

   Also, a contributor to dolthub shared on Reddit last time this post came up that they originally wrote their own SQL frontend but gave up because it was so much to maintain and get correct. They ended up going with go-mysql-server which use

   Probably! That's the most interesting and most difficult part so it may take me a while.

    Truth is I've written about how to parse in better languages before (JavaScript, Python, Standard ML, etc.) and I wanted to figure out a good approach for doing it in Go. As for databases and GC, you may be right but there are still ma

    SQL is a humongous spec. Any serious project would rather piggy-back off an existing parser. Most of the interesting parts for most people is implementing backends against in-memory, disk, S3, HDFS, etc.

    I like this project! I think I've asked you about it supporting parquet before... I'll add it to my list of similar projects. Regarding goyacc and "usually", I myself was curious about this years ago and asked on Stack E

    The biggest reason to do this in Go is to approximate enums. Now anywhere the `keyword` type is used, it must be one of the ones specified there (or you'd have to cast a string). Yep, it would be a little harder to implement all of the

    Unexpected, but welcome, to see the first part in the series on here right now. I just published the second part [0] today, featuring binary expressions and WHERE filtering. It also updates the REPL to use a prettier table-printing library

    Agreed, historically anyway. Older Koreans (judging by my in-laws) hear "computer science" or "programming" and think of computer repairmen. Oddly enough, Korea and Japan have even higher percentage of SMBs than in the U

    Not who you're responding to, but for just one possible reason look at Lee Jae-Yong. He's the head of Samsung and was arrested in 2017 for bribery, embezzlement, etc. Chaebols (name for families that run these mega-companies) are

    Like others say, writing a VM is a great project for your own education! I thought it would be hard to target a real system like x86 but after trying to get started on older Nintendo systems I gave up and just did x86. It's simpler bec

    I'm unfamiliar with their library contents and this thread didn't go into a lot of detail. Their sci-fi section (sorted by most "viewed") includes many classics by authors such as Asimov, Phillip K. Dick, Bradbury, Vonne
