There's a library for embedding inline svg icons. You call it with a string name in your html template and get back a string svg. It was originally implemented as a single GenServer. When you app started up it'd read the filesyste

There's precedent for that in JavaScript's format strings. It also allows for cute ideas, like passing the template to a function that does SQL.

If the voters are humans (or computers instructed by humans, which simplifies to the same thing) then obviously yes.

Not sure just how solved that is for write heavy workloads. It seems possible for a medium sized very successful company to hit fundamental limits requiring some architectural changes. Eg https://www.figma.com/blog/how-

I don't think we're talking about that kind of software, though. This big was in code that needs to parse a line defined by named points and then clip the line to the portion in the UK. Not trivial, but I can imagine writing that

Aren't they trying to turn their word list into a subscription service? Obsoleting paper copies might be a feature.

In this case the problem was choosing an excessively naive algorithm. I'm very inexperienced but that seems to me like the solution would be to spend a bit more money on reviewing the one implementation rather than writing two new ones

Right, and I'm trying to figure out an intuition for what a lot of traffic is. My current intuition said 100M bookings per day has a decent chance of being a lot for sqlite and even postgres depending on how it's distributed, so y

As a novice I'm interested in how people reason through this sort of question. I was surprised the person I replied to used the reasoning they used, and that's what I was asking about. If we put the entire 100M/day traffic ev

I would have assumed that dividing bookings per day by seconds per day is meaningless. For a given hotel in a given time zone wouldn't it be quite spiky?

Fly.io definitely has an innaproprately casual attitude, and it's a big deal they migrated you early. However, they do point out that literally any reboot would have wiped your data and that that could have happened at any time previou

You can get a surprisingly long way by just saying each field has atomic and independent changes. That's what Figma does. For structured data it seems to map well to what the user expects. If Bob drags something five pixels right and J

Problem is an uninit value is unstable. The compiler could be using it to store something else, and could change what it's storing at different times. You need a freeze operation to say "I don't care what that this is, but it
