results = database.query(from table select column) That is a bold take these days. You will take a lot of flak if any of the parts just happens to barely look like SQL. Either you are on the ORM side or on the wrong side.

OCaml is also from 1996. And I say 2005 because that's when I started using it, not when it started being useful. By that time it supported parametric generics, multiple inheritance, named parameters, optionals instead of nulls everywh

OCaml would like to have a word with you. In 2005 it already had better static analysis and correctness on object oriented stuff than what Java struggles to approach today. But Java has better marketing.

Not everything can be associated to a single entity. Many operations work on two or more entities where none of them are the "master". Otherwise you end up with "coordinators". Users.create(...) is the easy case. Try tra

Lucky you and your multiverse. In our multiverse we vibe coded the economy until the LLM decided we needed to construct more paperclips.

You know, the thing about standards is that there are many. https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc7231#section-5.3.2 Checking the HTTP headers is the HTTP standard.

When all you know is hammers, all you can think of are nails. Screws are impossible to use and understand. How are you supposed to hammer in a screw? All those ridges are in the way!

If you cannot code, what difference is to you the flavor of code generated? Do you also complain when the CISC instruction set is used instead of RISC?

The last time we updated react we had to do it because we were using a version so old it had been unsupported for several years. While also using modern components and libraries.

Microsoft claims 30% of their code is now written by AI. So right on point.

That's fair. I'm too accustomed to seeing the other type of telemetry shoved in all over the place.

by javcasas 1y ago
Custom bundler + telemetry already included. Smells way too much like Microsoft, too much like lock-in with a deal that gets worse and worse.

My bad, this is open telemetry stuff to check the status of your servers, not for the vendor to slurp as much data from you as possible.

On most SQL databases, you can put CHECK constraints on columns so that the database rejects events. But this is controversial, as people don't like putting logic on the DB.
