That makes sense. What doesn't make so much sense is that the documentation indicates that Python 3 is supported, but everything I've tried and everyone I've spoken to have indicated that it's just broken. In any case, I

Caching depends on a correct model of the dependency tree. If a dependency isn't included in the model, then a non-hermetic tool will silently succeed, incorrectly while a hermetic tool will do the correct thing and fail the build. Kee

Most _C++_ projects are using CMake, but it has virtually no adoption among other mainstream languages, and given most open source is not C++, CMake definitely doesn't have any strong share of the open source market.

OCI provides a standard container image format, at least. Assuming your whole toolchain is compatible, then it shouldn't be an issue.

Docker's build system is really strange. The build cache assumes that your dependency tree is linear, and it will invalidate the build cache if any file dependency changes, but a `RUN apt install foo` doesn't invalidate the cache-

I agree with all of this. My proposal addresses exactly this problem for the allocation related bottlenecks. CI will fail if someone introduces an allocation in a noalloc—annotated block.
460.
by weberc2 7y ago
They were talking about writing code that doesn't allocate in the hot path. Mostly this is pretty easy to eye-ball, but you can make sure it doesn't allocate by passing `-gcflags -m` to the `go build` command. This is almost alway

I like that the tools just work. I don't have to learn a DSL just to write my own build system for my project (unlike CMake, gradle, opam, etc); it's just `go build` or `go test`. And it works for almost everyone's project, s

by weberc2 7y ago
Yeah, I envision fewer performance tests at a higher level of granularity. Not only might you miss annotations here and there, but allocations aren't the only thing (although they are probably the most significant) that would affect yo

Technological advances in agriculture would presumably explain it, many of which are probably computer driven (precision agriculture, data-driven agriculture being two examples).

The parent was referring to the OP’s doomsday scenarios (“kids are in for it”).

So "interpreter time" is defined as "time not spent parsing JSON" and thus "the less time you spend parsing JSON the less time you spend parsing JSON"? Of course that's correct, but it's so obvious as

The post is profiling large payloads? Maybe ujson is optimized for smaller payloads?

Especially considering that JSON compresses well.

I would be surprised if Google didn't know a given customer was disabled and serve up accessible results. Whether that is something an engineer deliberately coded or whether it was an algorithm that learned that a given cluster of user

One of two scenarios will happen depending on how easy it is to retrofit an existing website for accessibility. If it is easy, some subset of developers will specialize in retrofitting. If it is not easy, all developers who want to compete

There have been businesses that provide compliance services for forever. I would expect ADA compliance to be dramatically simpler and easier than HIPPA or SOC or GDPR.

I’m not usually one for more regulation, but I think this is a good thing. As far as regulations go, this is one of the cheaper ones, or at least it will be when developers are properly trained in accessibility and every serious CMS support

I don’t doubt this. Regulatory corruption is a real issue. Fortunately this isn’t an issue for most consumer-facing industries in the US.

Maybe it is, but that Wikipedia article doesn’t illustrate any controversy (unless I missed something), only that we should take the source with a grain of salt.

I agree, but the parent is responding to the article’s claim that the rich pay less. This isn’t in support of the parent’s comment, just trying to clarify the conversation and root out accidental straw men.
