   Now you have a whole bunch of New SQL databases that will scale past whatever number of users you can imagine. So your good old Django or Rails app can scale to 1M or 10M users without you doing anything exotic. That's not "fun&qu

   This is part of futile attempt by management of creating spherical worker in a vacuum so there is as little specialisation as possible.

   I would imagine creator of Clang and LLVM has a bit of an idea of how fast C runs :)

   Will be interesting to see how things play out in Mojo as it looks like they will account for lessons learned by Rust community.

   Most terminals were bought and payed by volunteers same for the service. I think there are 3 main concerns for Musk: 1) Terminals are used as backhaul so traffic is abnormally large compared to typical user 2) Personal safety 3) Political

   Well lang features do not really depend on the purpose the 3d party libs do. Let's say the purpose is web services.

    Is there an alternative with similar features and ergonomics? I am def. not aware of one.

    don't you have like extra heap allocation per call with code that macro expands to?

    so if I am doing async calls on DBRepo inside that function they can not be moved to a different thread by a runtime like tokio?

    by qaq 3y ago

    I am saying that in web services you will frequently use async functions that look like async fn do_blah(db_repo: impl DBRepo ...) {...} and are executed on async-std or Tokio

    async fn do_health_check_par<HC>(hc: HC) where HC: HealthCheck + Send + 'static, HC::check(): Send, // <-- associated return type { tokio::task::spawn(async move { if !hc.check().await {

    Any sign of async functions in traits without the macro? One kindah would expect first class async support for web services and honestly something like Swift prob. has better balance between usability and speed for most web services.

    That's very hypothetical. Building a distributed system just might always be way more resource intensive than comparable monlith regardless of number of developers involved.

    Well they do work for Amazon they can't say lambda sux. Monolith is way faster to develop especially the CI/CD part so no if they started with monolith there would be no downside.

    Because it has arbitrary limits and bad ergonomics. 100 items per transaction wtf. 1MB of data per second write per partition and so on.

    DynamoDB is a sad hack that heavy marketing had elevated in absence of better offerings on AWS at the time. It's not particularly good as KV store let alone something more serious.

    I'd say biggest displacement would be in IT, Insurance/Financial Services, Creative, legal, Thats not even 10% of the work force and it would prob. take a decade for it to fully play out.

    Well maybe shift to "real world" professions will occur resulting in us addressing abysmal infrastructure and housing situation. I am looking at picking up a trade because of this coming shift.
