I'm not sure if "C++ class" is the right term, but it will certainly compile into a class behind the scenes [1] You can use d8 to check what the class structure ends up looking like [2] --- [1]: https://v8.dev&#x2F

Classes generally point you towards writing more performant code. Factory functions allow you to achieve the same performance, you just have to be a bit more careful not to cause a depot :) For example, 1. field declarations [1] make sure t

It may be useful if you have data that originates from another source or if something outside of our system references your entity. In that case you need to keep some form of an externalRef, so it's usually easier to just use an id tha

Typescript's type system is known to be turing complete and people have implemented things such as sorting/tree-walking just using types (i.e. during compile time) [1]. I'd imagine something like this should be possible as w

If you inform your manager that doing X could break the site and they still push for it, then it is in fact their fault when it breaks. The point of a decision-maker is to make informed decisions, if you fail to do that, then you fail at le

I think the word you're looking for is "tedious". Go is both simple and tedious to write. I'd actually argue it's tedious _because_ of its simplicity.

Curious if you tried this on an EC2 instance in AWS? The IOPS for EBS volume are notoriously low, and possibly why a lot of self-hosted DB instances feel very slow vs similarly priced AWS services. Personal anecdote, but moving to a a dedi
