Might not be a goal of the author. Maybe they just wanted to make a shell :)

I’m all for boring technologies but can we please at least use compiled languages with types

I think react hits a really good sweet spot in the trade off space. Sure it’s not the best thing that can exist, but it really does solve a lot of problems in a way that isn’t overly restrictive. My personal opinion is that a lot of the hat

DNG isn't really related to JPEG XL at all AFAIK. DNG is a standard-ish way to shove RAW images in a TIFF file. DNG doesn't have to be tiled, but if you do have tiled RAW images and want to compress them, then it seems like JPEG X

The timing of this with Elon's SQL comment on X is especially comedic

You use a file system? I manually flip bits in my magnetic core memory

This makes no sense - it’s a hash map because it hashes things for you…

Only misleading if you don't understand what it's doing. If you do, then it's a useful tool.

I’m also using it in production and it’s so much better than any of the existing alternatives

That was the design intent of OAuth2 - needless complexity to generate consulting and service opportunities

I’d be mostly worried about the hiring problems. It’s not in vogue right now and it might be increasingly difficult to locate engineers who are knowledgable or want to work in such a stack.

Yeah this is dumb. The DNG spec handles this fine

Category theory is equivalent to type theory.

Don't think anybody told me that, but I do believe it to be the case
375.
by klysm 2y ago
The two are pretty much the same when you get down to it
376.

There’s a polyfill

I already use it in prod because it is light years better than the alternative
378.
by klysm 2y ago
Yeah it is, but I’m not aware of a good alternative that is widely used and supported
379.

I’ll take it over bash scripts any day. I’ve never had a single issue in production for years

Any time I see the words “distributed transactions” I get alarm bells in my head that the wrong thing is probably being done.

I use elk for automatic graph layout in my apps

This take is utter nonsense to me - just don't use them...

Okay but make is a shitty build system. What it does have going for it is you can nearly universally expect it to be already installed or easy to install. That makes it a good way to name commands shorter in a portable way, with some depend

Okay, if I forget what p-value means and just take it to mean probability, I guess I can see the point? It’s still wrong through
385.

Okay I’m with you, but if I’m not mistaken I believe you have slightly mis-characterized what strong eventual consistency is. > Strong eventual consistency: Exactly the same, but replace "eventually" with "immediately&quot

I would wager the actually important data is far smaller. A single camera would probably dominate throughput
387.
by klysm 2y ago
I’m not really sure what you’re saying. Do you mean you achieve the gaurantees of CRDTs without using CRDTs? What technology are you implicitly referring to? Whenever I hear someone say “sync” data, I instantly get scared. Consensus is frau

Incredibly hard to make work in practice because of the semantic muddiness that results from having events about events etc. You have to think about the domain and its first derivative
389.
by klysm 2y ago
I have no idea how this could possibly be true
390.
by klysm 2y ago
It highly depends on what kind of job you want. What kind of company do you want to work for?
