The interesting thing here isn't so much the improved latency or whatever, it's the ability to ssh from a client that's on a network which restricts access to anything other than 80/443

Bitcoin is almost never used as a currency in the sense that you're describing. It is almost always used as a vehicle for (unregulated) speculation.

If allocations aren't a major contributor to costs, then there's no reason to use a sync.Pool, is there?

Be careful that you're not pooling buffers of wildly different sizes Also this code has many many problems please never use it to encode JSON :)

Programs are implementations of specifications, they're not specifications themselves. Unless you're talking about like Coq or TLA+.

Last key wins is the most common behavior among widely-used implementations. It should be assumed as the default.

A JSON object with duplicate keys is explicitly defined by the spec as undefined behavior, and is left up to the individual implementation to decide what to do. It's neither valid nor invalid.

Error handling is just as important as "happy path" code.

func QueryDatabase(sql string) (string, *DatabaseError) { Returning *DatabaseError instead of error is a pretty clear programmer mistake, which should be caught and fixed by any reasonable kind of code review.

This is a fun way to describe the academic domain of CS theory, but practice demands an enormous amount of mechanical sympathy.

I definitely have used the OSI model in all of my corporate jobs for my entire career.

Look, just tautologically, if it was so shitty, we wouldn't be talking about it, because nobody would be using it. You're free to use a definition of "shitty" that doesn't take into account usage or longevity, but t

OSI is just a model. Like all models, it's wrong. But its ubiquity, and the fact that it's survived the test of time, clearly signal that it is a useful model. And that's as good as models get.

It's absolutely ubiquitous as a model. It's taught in every CS curriculum in every university in the world. It also doesn't break down in the real world, unless you're being extremely pedantic. Many bits of software don&

This assumes that you're compressing IDs in batches. I'm sure that's a common situation, but I'm not sure why it's assumed to be the _default_ situation, nor am I sure why this is assumed to be the primary metric fo

Usually you use UUIDs when you don't want your IDs to be guessable.

by kiitos 3y ago
> how expensive UUIDs are I don't quite get it. The normal string encoding of a UUID (d92b13b6-6780-4b98-82cc-d469dcdd42ab) clearly requires more bytes (36B) than the actual UUID itself (16B). The string encoding is for showing to u
