This seems to be the key/blocker for a decentralized internet, well social apps at least. If someone can solve discoverability, it'll make a lot of things possible.

No remote? What is the justification for this?

Same here, Although I have yet to see a deliberate comparison between the two.

Have you written about the challenges involved in this? Like does yt allow it? What do you index exactly? The implementation? Would be very interesting reading. There used to a few yt aggregrators around. I think the most successful was wha

It's all tabloid news now; calf born with two heads, Grandma abducted by aliens, tells all! It a consequence of the death of journalism in my opinion. We're all worse off.

It's an abomination for the simple fact of how do you bundle a lib directory with an artifact? Someone will chime in with some solution, but originally, everything was supposed to be an osgi module. It was f-cking nuts, pita.

Something about this makes my skin crawl; conflating blossoming sentience with soulless machines. Children are banal and miraculous at the same time. The default human state was to create tiny humans without end until the advent of birth co

Great project, I used it for an online code editor a couple of years ago. My question is; what's the status of mobile/touch support? It used to be barely usable on touch devices. How is touch support vs Atom? I haven't follow

we should push ourselves to understand what systems are forcing ---companies that monetize the work of--- deeply passionate OSS devs to consider more proprietary options. Fixed it for you. I'm waiting to read antirez comments.

A lot of companies used to actually do this. Let the mail room or call center people apply for the cobol training program and become developers. It's unheard of today for obvious reasons (a lot more demand for high skilled jobs makes i

You are using this particular branch in production, deployed as you mention, or sqlite in general? Some more info about this use case would be very interesting if you can share!

The collision rate (percentage of attempted transactions that failed due to a page-level locking conflict) in all tests was between 1 and 2%. Failed transactions are not included in the TPS counts below. I read this as: retry logic requi

How's the culture? Are devs actually busy and productive or is the the typical never ending wait for requirements to materialize that's so common at moribund large enterprises?

Last I checked mattn's wrapper was for an older version and was missing some things, like registering an update hook (I could be wrong, been a while). I welcome a current, lower level wrapper. If you publish your code, I'd take a

like the one present in the sqlite driver Last time I checked mattn's lib, there was no connection pool, and my tests supported this. Do you have other information?

But sometimes you get 'first opinions' by people who've thought deeply about the topic for a long time. This is the value. I'd also add that for a site with very broad subject matter, the level of discussion can be quite

Stack allocation is the one 'killer feature' c# has had over java since forever. Really critical for games, ie 3d math for example. Still no 'value objects' in java, I don't when or if they're planned nowadays,

Good article, very informative. You used to hear the "can't do the math" excuse a lot around y2k with respect to migrating these systems to something (anything?) else. You don't hear as much nowadays. I think a lot of th

Your dream is reality! Gnu Cobol source translates to C and compiles that with the system c compiler. The c looks like some sort of bizarre assembler, so there's that.

I don't have the sense this is a bottom by any means. Certainly there will be a bounce but I expect to see long term decline (imo).

FYI "what wrong with X?" is not the same conversation as "Are you familiar with X? It has these great features ...". Great that you want to promotoe you're favorite tech, but there are more effective ways to do it.

My first instinct was great, another pithy article from a nerd rapture-ist (riffing on Neal Stephenson here). But this piece is actually a very informative and interesting. A bit chatty, but very good overview of the history of AI up to now

I agree with the caveat I didn't read anything similar to go's work stealing thread scheduling, useful for tasks with synchonized IO for example. What appeals to me is the Lua integration. I'd love for a Lua application serve

Yeah, I meant web applications with the ease of developing and running a basic program of old. Sorry that wasn't clear.

This is very cool. I've often wished I could return to my roots of simply programming, and not being a server admin and dba. Am I the only who wishes we could deploy things like BASIC applications to a runtime in the cloud and be done
