I have used Base quite a bit in the past but switched to SQLitePro as Base was quite crash-happy (and I never managed to understand why). Might give it a second try since it seems the Base development is progressing, while SQLitePro is stag

Slit scan photography is very cool. And bonus points for making trains the subject matter! Fun fact: back in the day some acquaintances of mine actually made some photos with a flatbed scanner, utilizing its moving head as a slit aperture -

I have regretted releasing OSS under the umbrella of employers, and will likely not do so in the future. And while I never regretted releasing OSS as such, I did often have regrets that while I know the software was better than what was cur

I get the point, but on mobile devices especially it is vastly more pleasant to read a decently-formatted HTML email with a dash of responsive design, for font sizing for example. And showing some text and a "Download PDF" widget

I doubt I agree with this statement. If a junior is causing a full table scan by doing a where(), I will teach them how to detect it - and how to avoid doing this in the future. If the idea of how a joint does applications is that a junior

That does not mirror my experience. What I did see a lot was either spinning wheels because multiple people had divergent ideas about how the complexity should be managed, or spinning wheels because people on the project did not want to wor

That project is a treat - but it's effectively an FTP server, so most of its useful data will be in the files it hosts themselves. And it's deliberately built for being run off a single server. I had a similar project a long while

I love the series (and the "wat?" talk, of course - somewhat less the whole TypeScript desiderata of Ok, computer). And yes, it is nicer to avoid expensive tests if you can help it. It has been my experience, however, that if you

OP here - for what it's worth, this was the case on our application which was Rails 8. Some other gem or workflow may have been involved, but is highly unlikely.

Somehow this is not the first infrastructure OSS project written in C/C++ where I see two things being the case: * There is some crucial counting/reference/condition code that contains a bug * There is exactly 0 tests for tha

I know :-) Moreover - adding a pause inherent in batch processing allows you to have a last-line-of-defence for the intervention of a human operator / human assessment. It's a fine balance between "make the thing go fast"

You can stop and ask that question. This quickly antagonizes the entire org - because that 57MB bundle is composed of sub-bundles owned by teams with their own incentives, and none of them are interested in doing a 404 page right - that the

For most modern languages, something like an @internal annotation would work better. With compiled languages that need to conform to an ABI or export RPC definitions, there is merit to specifying what exactly must be exported (or must never

Really curious how this improves the filesystem bridging situation (which with Docker Desktop was basically bouncing from "bad" to "worse" and back over the years). Or whether it changes it at all.

Well, they did achieve the objective of nominating the scapegoat - Yevdokimov got 6 years of prison. Not hard to guess whether SSJ have added an alternate law reversion or direct mode reset (or fixed the landing gear strut attachment fixes)
