I'm not sure whether it's that easy. AFAIK he had a customer that wanted him to investigate why the customer's system was flooded with some data. He ran the connector to some other service that the data seemingly originated f

I'm wondering why it's not more common to indent the stages in a multi-stage build. For me, it's a no-brainer to see at a glance 1. how many stages there are 2. how long they are 3. the dependencies Taking the example from th

What's Kotlin going to do about that? Will they adopt their syntax or make it use the same API internally? This seems just like another feature of the JVM mother language that diverges from the implementation of other often-used JVM la

Actually, it has been mandated by the EU (and other regulators) that they have to allow other browser engines and AFAIK there are already teams at Mozilla/Google that are porting their respective engine to iOS. https://9to5m

If my application never sees a difference to normal JSON, everything is compatible and all there is are perf improvements, why is there a new set of functions to interact with it (jsonb_*)? It seems that the JSON type is even able to contai

SQLite’s source itself is being managed using Fossil, which uses an SQLite DB as a backing store (instead of a .git directory or similar). That’s a clever use, since the .git dir basically reinvents a database.

You can use a BroadcastChannel to send messages between the Windows directly. This should reduce latency when working locally.

I've used their design system several years. It wasn't always on npm and it used to be on a private npm registry (I am assuming that it was for the reasons you mentioned). Essentially, there are contractors and thrid parties that

I use hurl [1], a text-based HTTP testing tool. It's like the proprietary one that jetbrains ships, but as a CLI tool and can be perfectly integrated into CI. It is based on curl, as the name suggests. What I was also playing around wi

In my experience, the more a language is able to do, the more it will be used in ways that overcomplicate stuff. People will just pull in abstractions because they think it is needed. This is why I always avoid using Turing complete program

I don't get the thing with automated PR and commit messages. They mostly describe _what_ was done and not why. Also, if you enhance your available information with AI, why not just write no message at all (or a short one as always) and

Seeing Java getting these features is a breath of fresh air. I wonder how this will impact Kotlin. Being compatible with Java was one of the goals for Kotlin. We soon have a lot of features in the JVM mother language that are solved differe

I like the idea of JSON5, but it allows a bit too much in my opinion. For example, why add the single quote? Why hexadecimal identifiers?

I wanted so use these in a project recently, only to find out that they aren't supported on Chrome for Android. This makes them non-usable for me, since there is no drop-in polyfill available yet.

Having mutability/2-way-databinding makes angular hardly benefit from using TypeScript. State is just so much pain and it is hard to make impossible states not representable in the types. Angular requires a lot of extra steps to get th

So, if I'm using Chrome and I can't log out of my Google account any more, does that mean that site-owners are incentivized to use Google-based tracking? Because if they add Google-based tracking to their first party, it could use

I recall from playing with Arduino that using heap-allocated strings will cause heap fragmentation, which is why they should be avoided. This was C++, doesn't this count for rust as well? Do kmalloc/kzmalloc do magic to circumvent

Shouldn't this also be a much larger problem when deploying rust on embedded systems or in the kernel? How is that solved in these cases? Or is this not a problem at all?

I think it's the right solution, though I get that it confuses people. Given that the compiler only erases static type annotations, it should not touch the imports. > entire language is incompatible with a JS interpreter If this pro

I remember this well, too. Ironically, I think that angular is the framework that benefits least from actually using TypeScript. There is a separate templating language that's only type-checked if you set the right compiler options. JS
