freeze is used quite often (for immutability). Proxies are there for security? It wasn't mentioned in the article and I don't see how it providers security, it only makes things easier to use, right?

It was probably fasta of fastq format, which is pretty much line separated strings of the DNA letters. BSON won't help with that. You could try to squeeze the each of the 4 letters into 2 bits, but they use few more letters to indicate

I think toml is optimized for reading/writing by humans, while this is primarily exchange format. So readability is not too much of an concern. Seems like a compromise between JSON and protobuf

Github loads fast and is usable. It might have less/other features, but why would having more filtering options and more fields in each "issue" make load times 30x slower? Same with confluence, I don't mind if the editor

Then use Chrome only when you are looking for memory leaks. FF's devtools are not worse than Chrome, I'm used to Firefox and I find Chrome devtools hard to use. For example, the CPU profiler is much better, IMHO

It's more of a feature request. Thank you :)

Awesome. However, the postgres_scanner has problems with jsonb, it won't even connect the database which contains those :/

Exactly, I almost started writing a tool for that, because nothing else I found supports arrays and composite types. Now let's hope DuckDB does support that :) If you don't use arrays and composites, Spark should be able to do it,

non-nuclear green energy works as part of the system. I agree you need nuclear, but you don't need 100% nuclear. If I understand it correctly, the problem now is AC demand which is easier to satisfy with solar. On hot days it tends to

This will be hardly greener than taking a regular aircraft.

With Matrix you can use F-Droid build of the client. And you don't really need to trust the server too much, right? Maybe it's not enough for Snowden, but it's better. I'm not saying "don't use Signal", in

by exyi 4y ago
we still don't know of anyone with their messages printed out. Signal probably doesn't have all the contacts hoarded on their server, while WA certainly does. For me, there is a big difference in "might be buggy" vs &quo

If we spend all the oxygen on climate change and yet we are pretty much falling at tackling it, then I think there is way too little "oxygen" dedicated to not destroying the planet.

Even web apps have access to these (when they ask for it)

That's quite a bit more expensive than complaining on HN, or just buying a Lenovo

I actually used Copilot in neovim and it works well (because the VS Code Copilot does not work in the open source VS Code build)

People say you should know something about the lower-level programming and they are right IMHO. Even as computer user: Internet speeds are regularly given as megabits per seconds. How do you estimate how long will a 5GB file upload without

Most F# devs know some C# anyway, I don't think this is a big problem. It might be a problem if you mix C# and, IDK, Lua, but C# and F# are just good friends

by exyi 4y ago
I have never used a code generator for C#, which one do you have in mind? Pretty much all other .NET things can be used from F# equally well as in C#

Yes, but it works and it's open source. All the other languages have open source tooling (LSP or similar), why can't we have one for C#?

With blazor you need to choose Client or Server Blazor. Client will give you 10MB+ page downloads, Server will require stable and low-latency internet connection. It's fine for intranet systems, but not for general webdev

Rider has pretty decent F# support. Maybe not that many refactorings available, but it's IMHO worth it for the better language ;)

It will be the same, it also just uses LZMA. It has less headers, but that's not going to make much of a difference on 5M file
86.
by exyi 4y ago
I'd not say it's necessarily better designed - it's just simpler. Few bytes of some headers, LZMA compressed data, checksum, done. No support for seeks and stuff like that

Does SquashFS support cross-file compression? - i.e. how well does it compress a folder with a number of similar files?

We will need it later, you can't go 100% 0 carbon without it. Just running peaker generators, figuring out how to heat/cool houses, charge EVs when there is surplus, ... are all cheaper alternatives to storage, but won't cove

I also use `history | vim -` to search through the history in the context of other things I was attempting to do. Say, if I try some command and it does not work, chances are it's not the first time and I have the correct version on th

I know, but it was usable when I last used it. (and it was not designed by Atlassian AFAIK... and even if it would, I don't have anything against Atlassian except that they make really terrible software which I was quazi-forced to use)
