I'm using JOOQ. Not saying that JOOQ is the greatest library, but all of what you just mentioned works in there without problem. Including CTEs and json stuff. With a library such as SQLx, you can never really factor anything out. Or a

Just coming here to make a prediction: using raw SQL is not great for anything but very simple cases. You can make it type-safe, but that becomes tricky once things become dynamic. But the real problem is ergonomy. The better solution in al

I don't think so. Yes, LLMs use electricity. But they use electricity in the data-center, not in your home. That's very different, because it's cheap to transfer tokens from the data-center to your home, but it's not che

I agree with that first sentence, but I think the trend matters more than the average over a few decades. Also, you said "On the other hand, it is now easier than ever to make copies of materials that we see." - now you seem to be

> On the other hand, it is now easier than ever to make copies of materials that we see. Is it? I feel it's the other way around. For example, just 10 years ago, there were no apps that forbid me from taking screenshots. Copying CDs

Oh god no. We need to absolutely stop making OSs more restrictive than they already are. There are better solutions.

union types are great. But alone they are not sufficient for many cases. For example, try to define a datastructure that captures a classical evaluation-tree. You might go with: type Expression = Value | Plus | Minus | Multiply | Divi

It is very clear if you compare hotel prices to renting an apartment, which have almost been stagnant over the last 1-2 years (before they were rising quite a bit of course). At least very from 100%+ increases that I can see for hotels ev

"darum" also sounds like a shortened form. Probably from "da herum"?

I'm doing something similar. I set them all to 2x the speed. That is much better than disabling them imo.

That's very very sad. Animations can make UX much better when used correctly.

Well yeah, that doesn't look high in dollars for US people earning a lot, sure. But I never said that it looks high, I said that it increased. You could easily find APAs for about 5000 JPY not long ago. And don't forget that we cu

Umfahren - because it's one of the few German words that changes meaning based on pronounciation - and in a very important way.

The problem is that banks are too regulated. They get into problems (of different kinds) when it's actually fraud and they don't block the account. And then, customer support is expensive, more than losing a few customers.

Google handles it in the same shitty way. They send mails that could be phishing mails and use not only google.com but many other weird domains like goo.gl or foobar.google and so on. Terrible. The times were one could rely on them have lon

One could argue that the tourism industry was already beyond healthy, that the impact on English skills is negligible and that it hurts others, such as business people having problems do travel because hotels have doubled or trippeled their

The problem is that you now have to poll based on an index (maybe BRIN isn't too bad though) and you have to overwrite the row afterwards and update the index. That means you are creating a dead tuple for every row (and one more if you

> critical for a country facing a 30% population decline by 2070 Tourism doesn't help with that. And this decline (if it do happens) will impact the countryside more than the places where most tourists go.

How about using a service that runs continuously and brings it's own pool? So basically all Java/JVM based solutions that use something like HiKariCP.

Scala and Haskell are there and I think they inspired this in Kotlin and Rust. In Haskell it's "bottom" and in Scala it's "Nothing". In Scala no one uses "return" (mostly because we don't care ab
