“I work mostly in Go.” That should have been the start of the essay. New title: LLMs make Go programming feel good

I think most good libraries (regardless of language) are born out of a process like you described. When I made the comment above, I assume a library has already passed that filter.

Sorry to hear that. Is it fair to assume that every individual library/API can somewhat easily create a brand-new-world with every release (because it won't compile until the types are "re-aligned") yet they don't b

I would describe rescue as: Whenever I travel to a location, the planned return transport fails AND I would eventually be dead without outside human assistance. That’s a rescue. In your villa example that is correct: your friend helping you

Your villa is totally incomparable to space or a space station. Hypothetically: - you can walk outside, hitch a ride home - fully loaded means there’s electricity and phones? Call a Taxi? - walk to a near town shop, buy car parts and fix th

Assuming your 19 year old was smart enough to get into a top ranked program _on merit_ chances are they’ll be fine.

You are likely not wrong. Even though I do think that almost any profession can potentially find use for LLMs in some shape or form. My opinion is LLMs can increase productivity and be a net positive the way the Internet/search engines

(Also a Chat GPT4o,x etc user) Try asking it something actually technologically hard or novel and see what answers you get. In my experience, it repeatedly bails out with "this is hard and requires a lot of careful planning" regar

As of recently, Docker on MacOS has improved and AFAICT the performance penalty is gone. Is the problematic corporate Mac an M-series Mac or Intel? M-series have been great in my experience. I did used to get random full system crashes on I

"either on the far left end and terrible but easily accessible" Examples? I've been using Clojure since ~2013 and I can't think of "terrible + easily accessible" tooling. Most of the popular libraries are excel

The thing is (like I said above), I just don't see the evidence for that. Are there not-so-good parts of MacOS? Sure! - Yes, Finder is no good but it's not like it has regressed from circa 2011 - it's always been kinda non-in

Maybe I’ve been lucky but I haven’t noticed a deterioration of software quality in MacOS. Things have been stable, perhaps even improved overall. Also the UI overall is extremely snappy, but likely that’s because of the M-series architectur

Right... but using virtual threads I got 1,000,000 (in a second or two...) and likely for fraction of the memory. And I can even get many millions without a problem. I agree that for a low volume typical CRUD-only server that never bursts a

Just try starting ~100,000 threads that each sleeps for ~60 seconds in your JVM and check if you can succeed! :) ``` (run! (fn [x] (future (Thread/sleep 60000))) (range 100000)) ``` (hint: likely not...) TLDR; Efficiency

I love core.async (been using it since... 2014 I think... both Clojure and ClojureScript), and yes, core.async/go basically was/is solving (some) of the same problems. But there's a number of gotchas around (go ...) blocks...

It's niche if you don't have much traffic/request volume/etc. Once you have even an arguably relatively small amount (100s to 1000s of requests per second) it can be a game changer in terms of efficiency.

There's no restriction inherent to CRDTs/local-first around a partial sync. You are not required to sync everything.

In this case, would the optimizations/fix be easier if you were using traditional client-server setup vs local-first?

Anecdotally, some of the worst/slowest/tedious airport security I have experience was outside the USA in recent years. In the US, even if there _is_ a tedious process, at least everything feels efficient, and appear quite standard

Then you realize that your CPU has hardware bugs, and you go design and manufacture your own CPU :).
