It's a reference to the Inspector Morse novels.

I think part of this is that when an API developer tries to write frontend code, they'll naturally use the underlying schema as their frontend domain model because they're already thinking in those terms. I definitely suffer from

I think fly.io is intending to be a good choice for that use case. I say 'intending' because I've not tried it rather than to imply any informed opinion about where they are in the process of achieving said goal.

I guess NuBank (Cognitect's owners) have concluded that the paid licensing business wasn't worth the hassle compared to having the developer time involved spent on other things. Releasing only binaries, while I understand people b

It very much depends on which one, I find - the local one is primarily run -by- neurodivergent people so that tends not to be a problem.

If you haven't already, I'd seriously suggest having a look at redo (the theory but also apenwarr's implementation at https://github.com/apenwarr/redo ). It's not going in the same direction you are

I stand by "an ORM should work as just a query generator and let you skip any object layer when you want to", "an ORM should be able to let you feed the object layer data from your own query" and "an ORM should let

Quite possibly the best for everything up to moderately complex. You'd want to enter sqlalchemy (python), DBIx::Class (perl) and arguably Sequel (ruby) into the competition for 'best' though (I'm sticking to dynamic lang

I think it's the "from the Microsoft Store" part that's going wrong, and it just so happens the author noticed it on AMD-related store installed stuff.

I was really quite fond of colinux, out of assorted VM tech, colinux, cygwin and WSL1 and 2 that have provided me with enough of an X11+xterm+ssh rig to get work done comfortably on a windows machine I think colinux and WSL1 have been the l

Not all dual boot systems are "main OS" plus "wintendo." Quite a lot of the ones I encounter on personal machines are, certainly, but people doing actual dev stuff on both is still a use case.

I think they're trying to say that "people don't understand CPUs" is almost over-optimistic given how many much simpler things they don't understand. Would perhaps have been better phrased as "Absolutely true,

Nobody claimed it should be read uncritically. The considered opinion of the site admin, based on his own experience, is still worthy of note and of upvoting. I happen to think he's right, but the point would stand even if I didn'

This sounds reminiscent of the Kindle Unlimited model, and author opinions as to its usefulness to them are ... varied. Then again my brain keeps generating what it's convinced are fairer ways to do it ... and all of them so far also i

zcash's shielded pool is probably the closest to a solution for that that exists today, and at the very least a bunch of the cryptography/math/overall model should be re-usable in a more traditional setup. (I remain basically

OTP itself is very definitely worth learning about even if you aren't using it directly. Reading up on the Erlang GC was fun. So was reading Kernel.ex (Elixir's bootstrap file)

Plus this approach (IMO) visualised better than the proposed alternative. I think it's arguable that OP's approach is cleaner for some value of clean, but the article's approach gave me happy flashbacks to doing number theory

Take https://p3rl.org/Language::Prolog::Yaswi and steal the ideas into python then, you can probably at least get close to sqlalchemy style in terms of surface syntax at the python level. (the perl community has implemented

Funnily enough, perl has both a native prolog implementation AI::Prolog (which is not amazingly fast but serviceable for simple cases) and Language::Prolog::Yaswi, which is bindings to SWI prolog with a perl-native DSL if you want it.

Using textual templating to generate a whitespace sensitive language is a massive footgun - I wouldn't want to try and generate python that way either. It looks like you can plugin in your own templating script to the helm stuff though

It also strikes me that it might be interesting to model least connections with two or three LBs with and without such shared state. My instinct is that you'd still get most of the advantages even with each LB keeping its own independe

High volume low latency message queueing is already a problem people have had and implemented solutions for that (for their use case) cost little enough in terms of latency that the advantages were well worth it. Also there's no reason

I don't remember the URL (sorry) but I saw something recently talking about Facebook's queueing approach for requests being FIFO under normal load and LIFO when overloaded, so that under an overload state you serve the number of r

I think I'd liken it to the fact that -I- consider myself to be European as well as British, but there are plenty of people who clearly don't, even if arguably European is technically correct as a descriptor of all of us.

If you buy into server rendering before you write a single line of code and understand it's a trade-off it turns out to be only mildly unpleasant in practice. The best such codebase I can think of might still have been better off overa
