There is a lot of "spam" jobs. You see the same offer by the same company for months! with the same generic reject (seriously I think no even check the resume or whatever!). Then, a lot of fake I-am-a-AI "companies an

The problem is that Github does a lot . However, I consider that there is still not a great UI for the core service, in special for a complex project. In the other hand, I bet jujutsu has the best basic take, and is still missing a good

Who knows. I interface with a mirror of this non-sense copied into another db, and then it transfer to it to the original thing. Why I not allowed to do things directly? For the same reasons the tables are like that

I integrate with many ERPs and this is the bane of my existence. One of the worst has field names like `ft_0001...N` and table names like `UNCC_00001...N`, all in `text` fields (even numbers!), zero FK, almost no indexes and what are views?

That is a bad take, because that imply "crappier language will be used for MORE decades". Rust is an absolute improvement over C/C++ in major ways. Once there, for ALL THAT DECADES all the developers and all the code written

I'm leaning into something like this. My dream is to build an "access + excel + Jupyter" alike combo, where you declare the full components of a RDBMS, ie: "create log, select * from index, create queue, etc". I thi

I remember this article for when I was researching for https://spacetimedb.com/ . The interactivity is very cool, BTW! One neat realization is that a database is in fact more about indexes than the actual raw tables (all thi

Well, what means to support, truly, TVars? Is easy, or hard? Demand a new paradigm at large, or is only a inconvenience in the few places is used? Because if the answer is "turns the language into Haskell" then is a big NOPE!

Check the dBase/FoxPro family. My nostalgia remember it fondly, and there was not disconnected in how everything worked (example: The forms were stored as tables, so you can do alike `SELECT * FROM form_name WHERE widget=`), and ther

No, jj is super simple in daily use, in contrast with git that is a constant chore (and any sane person use alias). This include stuff that in git is a total mess of complexity like dealing with rebases. So not judge the tool for this odd c

After reading the article I think the point stand. Not always but for example when working doing a RDBMS all the abstractions are active inhibitors and even hostile to do what should be done (easier) without all that. And then you nee

I instead think the mistake was internet. If I were a time lord, I found the way to cripple the internet tech (3-body problem style) so it fails to do better than 56k.
