In 15+ years I’ve only used two orms: Django ORM and SQLAlchemy. I’ve also skimmed docs for many others (some JS orms, etc), and those often look completely unusable. SQLAlchemy is leagues above and beyond Django ORM. I can’t say I have nig

> LEO agency I know you didn’t mean Low Earth Orbit agency, but the thought is funny. If you’re not more than 1000+ km from the nearest satellite, you’re not in a remote area!

Not sharing the same namespace is a benefit, I agree. Not a huge one, as I don’t name my variables “map”, “string” and similar anyway. And would not look favorably if any of my employees did that.

I got used to React components, and after that templates feel a bit cumbersome and un-ergonomic in places. I’ve been using Django templates since 2006. Jinja was designed after Django templates of that era, fixing their most glaring problem

I’ve been using Jinja2 for years and years, probably around a decade now. I don’t remember any other docs?

This is fantastic and exactly what I wanted! A very neat idea about how you separate attributes and children. How does the performance side of this thing look like?

I’ve switched back to writing server-based code from writing React SPA. Text-based templates (I use jinja2) is my least favorite part of that. It’s modeled after Django templates circa 2005, and that was designed with an idea that designers

I have a 3.5 kWh battery backup in my apartment, since December 2022. Which is proving to be immensely helpful right now. I’m living in Kyiv, Ukraine and we have <10 hours of electricity daily these weeks, because lots of power stations

What’s an electronic wavelength in this context? What’s its size? Photonic ones I assume are in near-IR, on the order of a micrometer.

Have you passed a string into Postgres and then hashed it into bigint with another function? If yes, what function did you use? I assume that if you do it this way, then you see a string key in logs, views of current/locked queries, et

It's not exactly string-based as it accepts bigint key, but I guess it's possible to hash a string when you pass it to the function.

You’re definitely not the only one. I expected a rambling about how some not very sane person spends half of their working hours on LinkedIn, constantly updating their profile and whatnot.

PRQL is not an ORM in any kind of way, it’s the less quirky SQL, basically.

It’s not like you can hear a drone approaching, while driving APC/BMP, though. For bomber-type quads, sure, it probably can make a difference.

I’ve used it many times with great success. Not in a dogmatic way — I don’t usually delete my “code in progress”. I would rather cherry-pick standalone changes to new PRs, and then rebase. Or keep unsuccessful code in a branch that I can lo

There sure is a way to use the method to go from 4 all the way to 7. Just some of the fixes would be to change Rails version to 5 and 6. Author even said that it’s not a dogmatic thing, there is no point in interpreting it that way, just be
