Not a bug but rather an engineering oversight. Also not hard and it did not affect me, I caught it soon, but it was one of those surprising moments worth mentioning. I have a write-online table in MariaDB and ordering of records is importan

I might try to do some work with manually memory managed languages like Odin, Zig or Rust. I just have no use case yet.

Silver is limited in supply. The production is actually in deficit for years now, as silver gets used up and there is very little recycling. Oil on the other hand is infinite.

martial arts was so far the best thing i did. it has so many positive aspects that there's just too many to name. but an overlooked one worth mentioning is that it is also a social activity and programmers could use a lot more of that.

you could, in case you want to make only certain releases publicly available. but then, who wants to do that manual labour? we're talking mainstream here, not specific use cases.

the explicit part is that zig forces you to import allocator of your choosing whereas odin has allocator passed as part of hidden context and you can change/access it only if you want to. hence explicit behavior vs implicit behavior. i

If we stopped using VCS to fetch source files, we would lose the ability to get the exact commit(understand as version that has nothing to do with the underlying VCS) of these files. Git, Mercurial, SVN.., github, bitbucket...it does not ma

There is no such thing as perfection in the real world. Close enough is good enough.

For allocation, Zig and Odin. Zig is explicit and Odin is implicit.

You can compile VIPS or similar library into WASM and avoid doing much work yourself.

it's beyond dumb to change the color to red but keep the text black.

I would say that Go is the best gateway into compiled languages. It is simple(it has very little syntactic sugar), has a ton of available libraries, comes with its own compiler, compiles in 1-2 seconds, has world class support for concurren

I would transcode myself. All you need is ffmpeg and a bit of code to manage the input and output files and to call ffmpeg. You can scale as needed. One VPS can do a lot of work. I am doing it myself. Then you'll need storage(wasabi, b

Testing in Go is great, for unit testing. But anything above that should be done manually. "Mocking" never made sense to me and I never used it in my entire life. If I want to test a database/repository, I will spin up a real

Frameworks promised faster development cycle, lest code and uniform codebase. But over the years, this proved to fail to deliver except in certain minority of cases. I think modern programmers nowadays understand that it is much better to t

the blog touches more on the management side rather than development so the term engineer seems misused. i encountered this topic many times in my life and after many years i can safely say that what makes an engineer being considered a sen

FYI, IDEs and editors too don't use "textarea". Contenteditable essentially makes the web browser work like editor does.

There are no such blogs. Usually companies, or individuals, will write these after they implement some feature into their products. Which makes them inherently little pieces of information scattered all over the internet and there is no one

Even if you could add canonical link into the header, you cannot have canonical link represent content on another domain. So no, there is nothing do be done in this regard(even if anchor itself would support rel=canonical). I would just add

Yes, and I am saying Go has already solved all of this and it makes little sense to deviate too much from its syntax.
