Which is usually a positive. Testing tiny subunits usually just makes refactoring and adding new features hard while not improving test quality.

Because nobody has implemented it yet. A patch would be very welcome by many but nobody has written one.

This is a limitation which is currently being worked on. The order will still matter of course but it will allow PostgreSQL to make some use of indexes even when the order of coulums does not match. https://www.postgresql.org&#x2

While I agree with your general idea my lists are quite different. I would move Zig (innovates a lot in language and compiler design) and JMAP (IMAP is horrible and needs to be replaced) up and CMake and Bazel down (I count them the same as

I have used many query builders and experienced both the upsides and the painful downsides. The by far best one I have used has been JOOQ (Lukas Eder is a genius who really understands SQL well) but even that often causes more pain than it

The issue with the abstractions over SQL is that while they fix some problems they always introduce a bunch of new problems so in the end SQL is still preferable. I have yet to see an example where that is not the case.

Yes, for http/3 since it handles network issues better. Http/2 is of more doubtful value since it can choke really bad on packet loss.

by jeltz 2y ago
While I agree with you in general I have to disagree about HTTP3. The reason we got it is because of middleboxes preventing the adoption of SCTP. And SCTP and QUIC solve very real needs in a good way, things which we could not solve with TC

Sounds like you have not bought ads. No, they do not provide support there either. Maybe if you buy tons of ads, but not for smaller advertisers.

Yeah, if you decide to check out slop once your feed will be drowned in spam. Similar to how I looked at a couple more pro-Russian videos to get s nuanced perspective and then my whole feed was filled with conspiracy shit and nazi stuff.

I personally expect a decrease in quality. Without limits people tend to get less creative. Sure, there is some balance here in that tools also enable new things to be done which are not possible without tools but working around limits has

Yeah, I have done some grifting myself but quit doing it but still know a lot of really creative grifters. I know what a tool like this can do in their hands. These people managed to ruin a lot of Google searches with just human labour and

No idea what you mean about being too old and too young. The ABBA song is from 1979 and the Narada song in 1985, just 6 years later.

When you demand money in return for not relaying those experiences? That is when it becomes extortion.

But only one of them also controls the Wordpress foundation so who cares about the CEO of WPE?

Nope, as someone who has coded modern PHP recently I would say it is mostly still relevant. Some of the issues have been fixed but most remain.

WP Engine contributes 40 hours per week according to Matt himself. They should probably contribute more, but 40 hours is a single developer.

by jeltz 2y ago
And they do chuck a bit back. Matt just thinks it is not enough.

Matt certainly is.

Patches welcome since you obviously know more than me about the code base. And I obviously meant only major versions when I said all versions. PostgreSQL releases one new major version per year so that adds up quickly. > I don't exp

It would be a major hassle to do so since it would mean keeping around major parts of the code for all old versions of PostgreSQL. Possible to do? Yes. A hassle for the dev team? Yes, a huge one. Worth it? Doubtful.

It will hopefully be in PostgreSQL 18.

I use the git history all the time. For example the git history of PostgreSQL is amazing but I have also worked with proprietary software with good git history. And one key to good git history is people splitting up big PRs in multiple comm

SQL is not designed to allow multiple queries to be concatenated. That is a feature of certain databases, not SQL itself.

Each book is internally consistent but across the books it is not. So maybe not the best example.

Having tried it myself: because it can be really fun! More magic, more dragons, more princesses does not inherently make a story better.

In my country, Sweden, one of the most popular RPGs used to be Eon and that game i s much more medieval than DnD and it is very playable. I would argue more so than DnD, that that is subjective. And it was a very popular game so your guesse
