I'm super happy that this is getting funding and won't become vaporeware at least for another season, because it's super important to have a stable foundation for homebrew solutions. However I'm not entierly sold on this

Not saying you're completely wrong, but counterintuitively these middle management guys are spending most of their time playing LARPs with their peers to secure their projects, and by extent, jobs of people involved. When an unassumin

Not OP, but I somehow share his sentiment and I'd say that out of your list any would do. Terrible things are happening right now, and people find their way out, for instance the war in Ukraine. But then again, they have visa cards, th

Yeah, I've read that with the voice of Ron Perlman: "FAT, FAT never changes...". I get that not every vault dweller will be technically apt enough to build a working computer out of a usb charger, but there is plenty of hardw

You do realize that your usb charger has a microprocesor that is as capable as computers you used to play on as a child? Seriously, finding a running 386 today will probably be more challanging than finding a PC capable of running Cyberpunk

That "civilizational collapse" scenario must be straight out of the Fallout game. In my mind I was reading their page with the voice of Ron Perlman - "FAT, FAT never changes...".

It actually is kind of about performance. For me it's mostly about de-tooling your project. For example - I have a fairly complex app, at least for a side project, but so far I managed to keep everything without a single external depen

It's called Maslow's hammer. If the only tool you have is React everything around you start looking remarkably similar to JSX.

Honestly I don't see much use for yet-another-sqlite. The premise of having 100M/s writes instead of 500k/s sounds bit unrealistic, but at the same time, while simply importing tuples and completely ignoring stuff like foreig

Not really. I tested couple different approaches, including pglite, but node finally shipped native sqlite with version 23 and it's fine for me. I'm a huge fan of serverless solutions and one of the absolute hidden gems about sqli

Yes! That was actually quite helpful. For my use case (recreating in-memory from scratch) it basically boils down to three points: (1) journal_mode = off (2) wrapping all inserts in a single transaction (3) indexes after inserts. For whatev

Short answer - RGB is really convenient for lighting up sub pixels on your LCD screen, but it's utterly terrible at conveying information about relation between colors. HSL is a clever hack to quickly answer which color is slightly dim
