While true, the same would apply to code using Async blocks. Async does not attempt (or intend) to enable parallel execution of VM byte code. If the parent commenter saw a speed up in their tests, it’s reasonable to assume that is because o

Which, while making for an excellent bit of dialogue, is unfortunately not the case at all. The idea that natural systems reach an equilibrium is a fiction imposed by humans who invented the concept of “ecology” in the 20th century. Every

It's a very impressive project, and something I would definitely try in a greenfield app. I wish there was somewhere to follow updates that wasn't Twitter though.

Ah sounds like I need to update myself on this. I don’t recall what the other trade-offs vs GIN indexes are.

Cool cool If I could have your other ear for a moment: support for any EU-based cloud provider would be super nice. Ever since the Privacy Shield fig leaf was removed, questions about whether we store any data under US jurisdiction have b

My experience has been that sorting by relevance ranking is quite expensive. I looked into this a bit and found https://github.com/postgrespro/rum (and some earlier slide decks about it) that explains why the GIN index

You're assuming quite a lot about me and not actually responding very directy to what I'm saying. However, reading this and some of your other responses makes it a bit more clear what the concern you're raising is. > Lis

What a load of FUD. Personal websites don't need anything more complicated than an out-of-the-box config for apache or nginx to serve static files out of webroot. When's the last time that kind of setup was exploited? Sure if you

How would this make running a personal website risky from a legal liability perspective?

Are you sure? I was under the impression that PDFs can reference web resources, and this is why there are more stringent standards for archiving (PDF/A and friends)

While this made me laugh a bit, I think there's a meaningful difference between using "tree-like" syntax for all your code (lisp & S-expressions) vs declarative UI descriptions (JSX). A deeply nested syntax is beneficial

+1 for Missive. We've recently started using it at my work and it's been great.

It seems pretty safe to assume a developer contributing C code to git itself would know how to use git blame (or the GitHub interface for it).

I just added a section to the README about this, but my main use case is admin access to shells inside of containers run in managed environments where `docker exec` (or `kubectl exec`) is not available.

There are a couple of things missing from your “how it works”: - Please clarify what happens to funds when a bounty isn’t claimed. - Is it possible to retract funding? - As another commenter pointed out, what about situations where the invo

From an implementation perspective this has much more in common with Go than either Python or Node. In Go, you simply write a blocking IO call, and the scheduler in the Go runtime pauses your current lightweight thread ("parks the go r

Not the GP but regarding no references for map keys; I can imagine that this would be an issue when representing a list of maps with uniform keys. E.g. a list of 1000 points with the keys “latitude” and “longitude”. I can think of various m

I've always wanted to build a larger app based on this approach. I quite like Massive, and 5 years (!) ago I wrote https://gist.github.com/grncdr/4555208#file-sss-py as a one-off response to a tweet from Ted Dziub

I'm really confused why you would put any-db in the same category as Sequelize... it's not anything like an ORM and never wanted to be. It's the wrong tool for any job that isn't "writing a DB-agnostic SQL generator

There is no difference in JavaScript, they have the same semantics & meaning. However, single quotes have two advantages (IMO, since this is obviously subjective): 1. can be typed without shift on US keyboard layout 2. I use double quot
