Heeyyyyy! Where is my Nim and Crystal? If you think GC based languages are acceptable I highly highly encourage Crystal.

Crystal has been my language for my passion project ( https://gitlab.com/maxpert/crlocator ). I can tell you the speed and magical ruby syntax is unbelievably good (not for everyone’s taste). I just wish a better IDE sup

I sometimes look at react, and these modern frameworks and wish they had a same nice API as jQuery. I still profoundly remember how much simple it was compared to Prototype.js, and how simple it was to do a zebra stripes on table. I am stil

`Rust is a real pleasure to use for web development, and I thoroughly recommend it. It is so versatile that, without a doubt, it’s the last programming language I learned. Ever.` This rings a Node.js fandom bell in my head; I'll be ver

The fact that you are using offset of 50000 and complaining it slows everything down says a lot about the benchmarks. Top it all with ORM query with prefetch all, GIL, and shared CPU (I am guessing) that you used to run benchmark on. You s

I use generics on daily base! Even a basic cache requires generic support. I don't want to litter my code with castings and ifs when there exists a decent solution to do all of the manual undertaking for you. That is what compilers wer

I use fakespot but I’ve noticed merchants now dogging fakespot as well. I am not sure about other folks here, but merchants selling these gift cards to people should be illegal and I am so sure if Amazon announces a reward for such actions

I’ve used Kotlin on Server Side in production at a pretty significant scale and I think it’s the most underrated thing for people using JVM on servers. I recently had a podcast with one of Spring dev advocates (Josh Long) https:/&#x2F

I've personally used LZ4 on production a scale that really proves how using a compression like LZ4 is more efficient than uncompressed data https://doordash.engineering/2019/01/02/speeding-up-redis-wi...

Is it me or I see intel going down the PowerPC route now. I never imagined a niche micro-computer like acorn computers do something so revolutionary.

Agreed server should have a rate-limiting on each account to prevent DDoSing in future.

10 parallel calls already in progress that have not received a response from server. Why start 11th request?

I've seen "Network is unreliable" being used as an argument to hide laziness. I do agree you can have flaky network, but the biggest give of the laziness behind the argument is not inspecting error codes at all. In this parti

IDK why mobile dev folks do blind retries thinking server is some kind of mage. I’ve had debates on how much retry makes sense for a login service I built. People have the tendency of hey this endpoint used to work with these parameters did

Almost 6-8 cofounders, nobody other than woz as big or as impactful. Weirdness on chain validation and all over the site. TBH I wonder if woz is really with them really co-founding or this is just like a kick-scammer.

Have used it in a go mono-repo. It’s own convention on packages and bad integration with IDE makes it a hard sell for me. I mean I just paid for Goland IDE why would I waste my time integrating with something that might or might not work fo

With this argument iOS should have never taken off. Yet it’s better than “open” Android standards. Thing is Apple rewired people to stop thinking about RAM and CPUs and made developers write software that works on 4 year old iPhone. Try tha

I am really curious why the response to Apple Silicon is so prompt vs when Microsoft did WinRT or ARM versions nobody really cared. What is the difference? Was there some problem in compilation tool-chain or what?

Amazon was a magical thinking! Google was a magical thinking! iPhone was a magical thinking! This article makes confusing arguments on sustainability and unsustainability.

With Linux support AOT compliation and other goodies I wonder how many people will prefer writing backends in .NET over Java.

Beanstalkd is probably the only beautiful queue I instantly fell in love with. It shares it's DNS with memcached, and makes life so much simple! I know people have the tendency to write complex abstractions and questionable choices aro
