If you hire through the ad you get the surveillance data bundled. And people say targeted advertising doesn't create value.

How is this even comparable to other relational databases ? In this setup you use something like blobstore for public shared db access. Looks like single writer at a time. In traditional databases you connect to a database server. This is l

GPT 4 pre nerf was terrible at reviewing non-trivial or non textbook code. I've decided to test it for a few weeks by checking stuff I caught in review or as bugs, to see if it would spot it. It was like 0% on first try (would always t

That's the worst part about generative AI IMO - it makes writing new code faster - it barely helps with editing existing code. So when someone eventually updates the code and forgets to update the comments I wouldn't be surprised

I'm already in the flow with copilot so I'm pretty good at expecting when it's useful. Basically I use it as AI copy paste. When I have variations of methods or conditional logic copilot is great at one shot solutions and it&

I've tried it for a few days a month ago and it was noticably worse than copilot, copilot gave much more one shot completions sooner while codeium was line by line on same code. Way better than the AWS code whisperer or whatever it&#x2

Funny how even the examples they have in the showcase are bad/mediocre code quality.

That's solved by WASI which is like POSIX of WASM. Nobody is arguing that WASM today will replace containers - 2030 is a long time away in tech.

by moonchrome 3y ago
I'd argue containers aren't that good at databases or caches (production ones anyway, fine for development) and containers are specifically targeted at app deployments. Containers just add overhead for stuff like memcached and com

But my point is that WASM is the same thing in comparison to images - lighter weight environment for deploying applications.

So you'll develop directly on the wasm runtime locally which should be a platform abstraction ? The way I see it VM -> Containers -> WASM is a logical progression in the same direction from the perspective of deploying applicatio

> Okay, I'll amend my statement: no one should be using a WASM-powered Postgres as their production DB. Realistically containers neither. DBs are infrastructure best left to PaaS or dedicated VMs you can provision/manage better

Just like docker image vs specialized language runtime ?

by moonchrome 3y ago
By same logic why use containers ? You can just ship VM images. It's basically the same thing as using a language runtime vs using a generic container for Lambda, except WASM would be lower level (you would need to ship language runtim

That sounds like a very simplistic framework and I'm sure you could do some metaprogramming to abstract boilerplate. Like you couldn't do database multitenancy with those constraints. I've used the int keys and UUID public ke

Flash was abandoned because it was horrible. Flutter is basically cost center app framework (like xamarin) - not something you model performant software after.

You can technically use nail clippers to mow your lawn as well. Deploying GC language with a huge runtime and stdlib to WASM sounds like a bad idea.

My problem with this is that the interface sucks and the iteration is slow. Supposedly copilot x will have a deeper IDE integration and voice commands.

I was going to say - it would be extremely stupid to not offer domain registration as a part of your cloud platform - the way billing works at most companies - not having this would often be a deal breaker for using a cloud provider.
