JSX is a better data structure than strings for expressing views, but this doesn’t use strings or any other data structure. The beauty of the OP’s approach is the immediate mode render approach. JSX is a data structure, immediate mode impli

Code once run anywhere but at massive cost to user experience. Even if I wanted to use this I couldn’t see myself adopting when the website is so bad. Feels like Flash on an underpowered ee pc.

Well the AVP has a massive battery that contributes to the weight and adding it w/ a strap to the back to add balance did not help me. I tried back-mounted battery with a 3rd party head gear thingy which alone (no battery) makes the AV

Wearing the AVP 3 days in a row for 30 minutes each day leaves me with neck pain that lasts another 3 days. It’s just too heavy for me and for a lot of others, even if the visual quality is very high the overall experience is very poor if

Besides the licensing issue, I wonder if optimizing ZFS for low latency + low RAM + low power on iPhone was an uphill battle or if it’s easy. My experiencing running ZFS years ago was poor latency and large RAM use with my NAS, but that ha

It’s just not there yet but I think it will get there for translation kind of tasks quite capably in the next 12 months, especially if asked to translate a single file or a selection in a file line by line. Right now it’s quite bad which I

Agree this isn’t Apple exclusive. Mostly what I mean to say is that media tends to portray things as DOOMED if they aren’t amazingly successful right out of the gate. The Vision Pro v1 is not a great product but it’s also a super niche prod

AppleTV is much more similar to a game console than the mentioned devices. It has a small set of powerful CPU/GPU/memory combos vs the menagerie of disparate and mostly much lower power hardware under the broad tent of “Google rel

The media loves to spin Apple things as failures right up until the point when they’re a success. See coverage of iPhone, Apple Pay, iPad, etc. Even “Apple faithful” media like MacRumors.com will be measured but pessimistic about Apple’s ne

Time is money, I would rather buy a NAS these days even though in the past I ran my own FreeBSD ZFS server NAS. Much cheaper use of my time to pay a 2-3x premium on hardware if it means I spend 4 hours on build and 1 hour on admin per year

It’s injection safe and compostable, and the resulting object retains the original values you interpolate in. This makes it useful for building SQL queries with prepared arguments for example.

What’s the big idea? After scrolling and clicking I’m not sure what this gets me. What’s the durability guarantee? Is this at-least-once, at-most-once, or thoughts-and-prayers message delivery? What happens when a node crashes?

It’s pretty rad how flexible template literal types are, but I can’t imagine wanting this kind of shenanigans hanging out in a production app slowing down compile times. I prefer to define types in TypeScript and generate proto from that, s

Quickwit was bought by Datadog, so I feel there's some risk quickwit-oss becomes unmaintained if Datadog's corporate priority shifts in the future, or OSS maintenance stops providing return on investment. Based on the Quickwit blo

For something like task scheduling in a build system, if you use an up-front partition of the tasks like this, you may have a task that has all its dependencies fulfilled because tasks may have different durations, but still remains unsched

Put your global tables in Postgres/CockroachDB/Vitess/etc. You don't need to force everything to be a SQLite table. Use the right tool for the job. SQLite can be the right tool, and it can not be the right tool.

Not sure what the poster meant but DuckDB is an analytics DB, it doesn’t have a btree index - at least not last time I looked. You could consider it the OLAP embedded DB to SQLite’s OLTP embedded db. DuckDB can read SQLite so you can even i

I think this one is a Datadog dashboard, so similar to Graphana. A few graphs but also some big numbers and top-5 tables. I've also seen some big-screen Notion dashboards where some graphs are Notion's native charts feature and so
