Rails is no more productive than go, and a developer taking 20 extra minutes (frankly, not likely, even if we’re talking rust) to write go rather than Ruby is not going to cost more than the $1000 a month the extra Ruby servers cost you jus

Nah. One rust based server can power the same number of connections as 10-100 ruby based servers. This is not just “pretend database IO” problem. This is actual cost that no business should accept on the basis of “but but but database IO (t

1,000 records is absolutely not a lot on modern computers or connections. On a business LAN, this request should take well under a second full latency. On an average mobile connection, it’s maybe a second or so.

The better question is “Why would I pointlessly accept this clear case of massive technical debt for literally no reason what-so-ever?” Rails does not present any sort of promise that go does not also present, so just saying “yeah, I’ll han

Unless those “double digits” are 98+%, ruby is still going to be quadruple digit percentage points behind strong competitors in terms of performance. If I’m going to give it even a second glance, I can’t be seeing “ruby 10,000% slower than

Yeah. I started like 13 days late and am just on day 5 part 2 (building it out a few times cause I’ve never worked on interval algos, so trying a few different things out). You don’t need to compete or even do them on the day they release.

I personally found the music “overdone”. I get wanting to spin it for today, but found in every reimagining that there was just too much going on with it.

> I look forward to giving Final Fantasy VIII a try; although it’s widely regarded as one of the black sheep of the Final Fantasy family FF8 is actually so bad as to possibly turn this person off the series entirely IMO. Bad characters.

Thank fuck science is not “based on elected individuals” (or in other words “whoever my Facebook memes agree with”). What an utterly baffling position to have that “the pursuit of knowledge should be limited to preconceived ramblings of the

I expected to find that this was just another VC funded “steal users until the inevitable mass enshitification” and I was unable to find anything pointing to this. Colour me surprised. Going to definitely check it out.

There are indeed multiple sources of emissions, many not at all needing human intervention at all. Luckily, we can generally measure natural emissions vs human emissions and find how much of it is being caused by us. Incidentally, due to wh

It’s not that I trust Apple, it’s that I trust Apple infinitely more than I trust the largest spy network on earth and existing without a smartphone today is difficult. If you need a smartphone, you can choose between a company that has som

Supersampled images are nothing new. I am specifically discussing the fake frames, which is what Nvidia advertises with (imo this is bordering on straight up lies). Nvidia did slap “Hurr durr AI driven” buzzwords in front of theirs, but sup

As of 2 years ago, which saw similar “the drivers are fine now and have been for a couple generations”, they are anecdotally not okay. Way more crashes. Way more weird bullshit (like audio disappearing????) that just doesn’t happen when you

It doesn’t “double” anything except a number in the corner of your screen. The frames you’re getting are not based on gamestate, so they’re just fake placebos. This is why it’s curious to me that gamers by and large have completely accepted

Honestly, who would have ever thought that a shitty, squashed, artifact laden, completely fake frames that don’t mean anything architecture would win? Personally, I didn’t think it would, but the power of a small number in the top of your s

No. They pretend to be open. They speak out of one side of their mouths and behave from the other.

Android *is a walled garden*, and that’s why they lost. Google asserts that they are open while actively being closed and anti-competitive. This is a win for openness. Not a loss.

by wredue 3y ago
TLDR: Google was exploiting “openness” as a concept while actively not being open. This is a win for openness, not a loss as op asserts. It’s neat that you make this a Google vs apple thing somehow, but the walled garden had very little to

I mean, we’ve understood negative impacts of climate change for like a hundred years now, and minimizer propaganda is still winning the information war for a majority of the planet, and some 40% of Americans. I don’t think there’s any iss

If you watch some of the zig streams, there are some C libraries that are quite complex for importing. It’s not always just an @cImport. I wouldn’t so much pin this on zig as much as the complete clusterfuck that is building c libraries.

The thing is that most people never ever have to deal with codes of conduct because, as it turns out, treating other with respect, really isn’t a difficult thing to do.
