I think you are mixing performance analysis with dependency analysis which is the point of the project. The sampling you are describing is commonly done by tools called "sampling profilers".

Most of the debuggers I ever tried have a "Debug my code only" option or something similar and they usually work well (even for C/C++ where you can specify paths to ignore). Have you tried those?

Of course it depends on what you are building, but my point is that the language gives you access to the low-level facilities which nudge people to worry/think about them even when they are irrelevant and unimportant. Because details l

This is my take as well. From the article I can see why writing a library that works on anything and with anything would be hard in Golang, but I bet that's not what Golang is mostly used for. If I'm writing a millionth custom war

The dismissive, know-it-all, didnt-read-but-holds-opinion attitude is the norm on HN, it is best to simply ignore such comments.

Definetly not my experience. My view is that organizations are VERY reluctant to introduce new tech to their stack, and rightfully so in my opinion. For example: moving a Java dev to a different Java project internally is much easier than c

It seems to me like you are speaking from the perspective of personal projects (or small teams at least). However, if you are an organization which currently consists mostly of Java or Python devs, then Go might not even be an option for yo

Reminds me of a C++ project I use to work on. The norm was to have generous function naming and not stick to the outdated C convention of short and cryptic names. The only exception was the function "anal", which was curiously sho

I felt the same way about Go until I've tried using it in a large corporate setting. The linters will absolutely scream at you if you ignore the returned error, and you will need to comment //nolint to silence it which immedi

The perspective depends heavily on your position in life. E.g. I can't imagine many parents taking up on such an offer.

Calling Dart "C-style language" sounds very weird. The curly-brace syntax is the only parallel I can draw between the two... What other similarities do you see?

Agreed. As a South Slavic native speaker I could understand Interslavic about 80% directly, and 20% from context, but what's more surprising to me is to see that speakers of North, East and West Slavic languages in the comments are rep

This is not how programming works in large corporations. If a feature is there, the people reviewing your code will want you to use it. Even though most C++ shops have a specific subset of "allowed C++", the language itself nudges

This reminds me of a 10x-developer coworker at my previous company. Whenever more performance was needed from the system he would just say "sure, just give me a week to remove the sleep() calls from the code".

There are literally hundreds of simple (and open-source) music players out there, including Winamp you mentioned and its offspring. What is preventing you from using those? IMO, this is the same argument like when people say "modern mu

This is a really weird and frankly naive take IMO, especially after what we witnessed during the pandemic. The demand for some goods is not affected by their price, and such goods have a name that you can hear in any Economics 101 class - &

Fully agree that the language is very taxing on the braincells and I think this is the main reason why Senior C++ Wizards tend to hate Rust. Imagine spending 10 years learning the little details about lifetimes, thread safety, million diffe

I can see the appeal, "use this and become the next Google". However, like you said, without a clear vision and long-term strategy, OKRs basically become "management wishlist".

by lpapez 5y ago
Prime example: if you go to any article about "OKR methodology" you will find the authors stating that it was OKRs that made Google what it is. If your manager sees such an article, you will be switching to OKRs instantly.

Most of the "coding" work I do is not writing code, but instead it's communicating with a client/manager trying to extract the exact requirements for a feature they want implemented. I can't see a computer doing tha
