    Hi there, I put in an application on Fri, May 26 and haven't heard back yet. Should I expect some communication about it?

    You can actually integrate both as well if you really want to leverage Drizzle for schema building and migrations: https://github.com/drizzle-team/drizzle-orm/tree/main/drizzl...

    This is my first time using it and I've been very pleased with it so far. It keeps it simple, has solid typing & schema building, and reminds me of LINQ. I'm also a thin models kin…

    That is a fair point. A few centralized locations will likely be more than sufficient for most use cases.

    Thanks for the insight, I greatly appreciate it! This definitely is a reasonable idea for many things and I'm looking forward to seeing something similar to the sharding mechanism …

    The costs as a whole has me worried. I'm not sure it'll be better than just using https://turso.tech/pricing as that is already a free tier of 8GB and it might cost less overall th…

    Is it a non-goal to be long term usable for larger databases? That would force the usage of something like turso your closest direct comparison as a possible migration strategy or …

    You can use drizzle-orm with Cloudflare and that is fully compatible.

    Clean room design is about wholesale copying of code. If you copied the APIs and architecture and wrote the code differently there would be nothing wrong as SCOTUS just ruled.

    I'm not here to agree with the who you responded to, but Google smuggling unblockable ads does 100% harm Brave. If part of Brave's selling point is the built-in ad blocking and in …

    I was surprised to see nothing about transparency, since I know myself and other who tend to value that very highly.

    But that's what languages that compile to JavaScript support already today. The binary JS shouldn't prevent this behaviour if it is just a binary representation of a text version.

    Sure, why not? The difference is that WASM is aiming for near native performance of code, while the binary JS would still be limited to JS performance.

    This isn't true if you use uglify at all. I literally had to go into IRC and try and figure out why a hotfix for our extension was taking so long to get through the process (we had…

    Benefit Focus from everyone I've known who has worked there pre-public said the company is absolutely terrible to work for from the engineering department perspective.

    Git dependencies with semver support seems to pretty much leapfrog yarn. One of the few reasons for a private npm package is removed with this feature.
