For abstract descriptions of what the code does, sure. But for small things like documenting the purpose of arguments, an IDE should warn about changes that are not reflected in the doc comment (type or a new arg altogether). IntelliJ IDEs

Tree sitter is used in Atom and is replacing Textmate grammars. In fact, tree sitter recently got s-expression query support, which will replace the old CSS selector syntax. So atom is already in the second generation of tree sitter support

Running with sccache drastically reduces build times. I suspect rust is using it to accelerate builds with it's s3 backend. I'm using the Azure storage backend for my GitHub action builds. Even on simple projects (3k LOCs, dozen c

Sorry I don't recall. I was in a random webring rabbit hole and don't feel like going through a hundred entries in my history :D. It was just a link though, with no note next to it.

Hey thanks for chiming in. I discovered this on someone's tilde blog. If you can think of a more descriptive title, let me know and I'll update it.

Yep. You can take MPS today and implement an AST projection that looks like whatever you want. No parsing involved, impossible to even write syntactically invalid code (since it is not code you're writing, but an AST projection).

Read past the title. This is pretty amusing satire. Quote: > Bernie Sanders is redefining the purpose of politics in the United States. We would like to preserve politics as a domain to conduct business, protect our class interests, mate

Suspiciously absent is a comparison with Google Colab, which not only includes free GPU support (T4) and TPU support, but supports pretty much everything I've seen here. It allows access to the underlying VM system and has native integ

Many kinds of products. One of our log aggregation products in AWS currently sits at 20TB ingress from over 500k connections. This is where slight optimizations start to have an enormous financial impact.

I usually hate these kinds of comments but I have to: Please check out dev.to. It's a minimal, fast, developer focussed blogging platform. It's open source, and quite active.

The syntax being regressive is pretty objective. It's not a value judgement. It has it's pros and cons.

That gave me a flashback to the early 2000s AIML chatbot craze. "What, you have an online store and no customer chatbot? What are you doing ?!"

LuaJIT is not available on every platform. Love2D for example is pretty slow on iOS, especially at computing paths etc for custom draw calls. Defold is slightly different, still allowing Lua scripting, but not more than that, which is the a

I mean, I agree. But there's a toc and I usually skip to the sections relevant to my use cases. The only people who should maybe read the entire thing are (in this case) DBAs.

Yeah it works well. I also sometimes push code into the db for faster execution (sorry on mobile, can't detail now). Haven't tested out Geo replication though, but it's pretty straightforward. Clock drift maximum and all that

Heh, I wish everyone would adopt the gold standard in changelogs: Noriyoshi Shinoda's write-ups of changes in Postgres versions. Example: https://h50146.www5.hpe.com/products/software/oe/linux/mains.

Hardly, that is more of a hack. There is however a distributed, clustered version of sqlite: Bloomberg's Comdb2. It has the same scaling factors as e.g. percona, can be Geo-replicated (multi-roomed) and has many advanced timing and fin

I mean, Crystal would be my next go-to. If you have never written Ruby (like me) the appeal isn't the Ruby-like syntax, it's just a reasonable syntax with a very pragmatic type system and niceties (like classes, which are more o

I agree in the sense that small problems which have technical solutions should be pointed out and overcome. However, in later-stage startups and in larger companies, trying to change the direction might not be the wise thing to do. This hig

I see this as a more general group of apps which connect you with people because of some reason. The main attraction is that you don't need to provide a reason yourself. This is not necessarily bad, in fact I'd count be my eyes in
