Nobody's writing Zig because they think they can beat the Rust compiler. Comparisons to Rust usually stop at memory safety and overlook what no-hidden-control-flow buys you when it's applied consistently across the whole language.

Thanks. Not using any new features from 1.26, so lowered the requirements for projects lagging behind a bit.

OP here. Sharing this early because I'm trying to gauge if this specific pain point is widespread, or if I'm just scratching a niche itch. Context: I’ve been working in a regulated monorepo and realized that almost all existing su

I'm not discounting her founder status. My point is that it's orthogonal to one's ability to run a company. Founders don't automatically make good CEOs. Plenty of founders step aside for professional management, and plen

This has nothing to do with the founder status. Founders don’t face any competition when they get the job at their own companies, and they often have ownership to force it as an outcome if there’s ever a debate. Baker, to her credit, probab

I can question the qualifications of a person as it relates to a specific position (e.g. CEO), but that doesn't mean I don't respect their past contributions. I find the accusations of sexism towards anyone who dares question her

There’s a long, long list of APIs which are Chromium-only because Apple and/or Firefox rejected them: Bluetooth, Battery Status, etc.

Yep, and the US had a lot more leverage; out of the US translates into no access to US dollars either directly or via a correspondent bank, which essentially means bankruptcy.

That's why I suggested govulncheck; it can keep a database of suspicious packages and issue a clear warning, and it can be locally check that the hash of tagged version you're using locally is the same on GitHub.

by mohamedattahri 2y ago
There's indeed a serious problem if cache invalidation relies solely on the declared semver of the package. Maybe something govulncheck could manage by comparing a package's hash on pkg.go.dev VS the remote vcs.

I don't think this is a valid argument, because both sides of it are true. Developers invested, but so did Apple, and they did it first and took bigger risks. The App Store is packed with apps because developers saw an opportunity and

There's not a single mention of Apple Music. There goes the credibility of this statement. It's rather obvious that problems started when Apple decided to build a services business the size of a F100 company by directly and unfair

There’s something cool about the fact that parallel code in Go is still idiomatic Go.

FYI - “Keys()”, “Values()” and others have been pulled because they’re likely to be implemented using the new range-over-function paradigm. They were included in the experimental packages on google.com/x.

This is factually untrue and I just gave you two counter-examples. While it's true that credit has long replaced deposits for money creation, the idea that all deposits strictly originate from some virtual loan operation is fallacious.

BLOB on Postgres are awesome, but there's also a full-featured file API called Large Objects for when the use-case requires seeking/streaming. Wrote a small Go library to interface with it: https://github.com/moham

The FED is not trying to push unemployment, they just accept it as a cost to curb inflation which is always enemy number one. Interests rates and unemployment are correlated; you make borrowing more expensive, people invest less and become

I disagree, because I think the scale is relative to the size and complexity of the ecosystem you're touching, not the size of your influence. They're unpredictable and unexpected, and that's why we tend to refer to them as u

Nuclear power plants are great, but you need to maintain an energy mix that doesn't make you dependent on a single source. Consider the French nuclear infrastructure; by Sept 22, 32 of 56 reactors were off for maintenance or technical

The goal is to provide 10% of the country's energy, so I don't think it's that risky. In the vast majority of cases, win/win deals create stability because neither party has any interest in the deal stopping. If you thin
