Because building local first with web technologies is like infinity harder than building local first with native app toolkits. Native app is installed and available offline by default . Website needs a bunch of weird shenanigans to use App

A web request to a data center even with a very fast backend server will struggle to beat 8ms (120hz display) or even 16ms (60hz display), the budget for next frame painting a navigation. You need to have the data local to the device and id

You can still do this if you want, table element still exists and works the same way.

I would only expect type stripping, although it seems you already have the TypeScript language server hanging out in the editor for completion and docs and such, it’s not much extra challenge to get the VFS hooked up enough to show red squi

it’s so much easier to fix this in NextJS compared to other stacks though, I have done it a few times where I end up w secret using code in the client while prototyping but it’s just a single line of text at the top of a file to make it ser

I used the older online notebooks for a bit and really loved the immediacy but I’m always hurting for TypeScript syntax support. The is this a thing w 2.0? Something I’ll need to add later with Vite and only available locally? It was a bunm

Where should secrets come from then? Burn them into the deployable artifact??? Place them on the host filesystem in perpetuity???

This is a pressing concern for anyone trying to move large amounts of text data in and out of WASM. The batching makes good sense, I should try this for SQLite result sets!

let me look EDIT: no, there's no transmission of logs or analytics events besides a check to see if the feature is enabled. We only transmit some data if you ask Notion to record.

Notion doesn't like making things opt-in. A feature that's opt-in will get like 1% of the use of a feature that's opt-out. A happier middle ground would be to enable by default and show a "I don't like this, pls tur

Yeah, I think I'm conflating our fear of >5000 connections for our Postgres workload (read-write that is quite write heavy) with our SQLite workload, which is 99.9% read. The way our SQLite workload works is that we have a pool of h

by jitl 1y ago
Postgres has really not solved problems that come with being a networked server and will collapse under concurrent connections far before you start to feel it with SQLite. 5000 concurrent connections will already start to deadlock your Post

by jitl 1y ago
Postgres will shit itself without a connection pooling proxy server like PGBouncer if you try even like 5000 concurrent connections because Postgres spawned a UNIX process per inbound connection. There’s much more overhead per connection in

by jitl 1y ago
It depends hugely on how you decide to manage the connection objects. If you have a single thread / single core server that only even opens a single connection, then connection open overhead is never a problem even under infinite load.
501.
by jitl 1y ago
Yes: SQLite needs to inspect the schema when it opens a new connection object and does some O(number of conns) lookups in global state during this process. It’s best to avoid re-doing this work.

If you want to use rust, and it fits your use case, then use rust. Same as with any language choice if it’s the right thing for you then go ahead. I have a few million lines of existing TypeScript so will keep using JS runtimes for the fore

Well the project goal seems to be extreme minimalism and stdlib only, and the choice of human readable data stores and manually editing the user list suggests a goal is to only need `vim` and `sha256sum` for administration

by jitl 1y ago
Minimalism. It’s tiny and its data can be completely administered with `vim` and `sha256sum` Given the setup I’d guess it makes sense for little household scale apps w/ a user list in the low tens of people.
