    All the usual suspects, error handling, sum types, interfaces. Just a note, I'm yet to see a problem highlighted in the section about interfaces, in particular that changing a conc…

    Every library is a liability especially in terms of api. There are many example where the first take on a problem within a std lib was a bad choice and required a major overhaul. O…

    I think this post needs better examples to show case the issue, because right now the issue is not clear. Ideally you would need an example that uses the context.Cause function, se…

    > For many business apps, they will never reach 2 billion unique values per table, so this will be adequate for their entire life. I’ve also recommended always using bigint/int8 in…

    The other reason is the volume of the code being produced combined with the constant product changes. An innocent change like mixing two close but still different concepts can easi…

    Reads like a straw man. Was "being simple" anywhere in rust lang agenda?

    I’ve made my own attempt in building a social network [0] and it’s evening running for me and my friends. Here are few things I’ve encountered during the development: - Based on my…

    There are two sides to the argument which I think should be treated separately: a) Is it a good idea overall? and b) is htmx implementation good enough? a) I think so, yes. I've se…

    This and similar post are a bulletproof way to start a flame war. Last time it was generics that were missing, now everyone is raging about sum times and of course explicit error i…

    One of the things that surprised me in the article was their usage of J2K. They’ve been using it as part of IntelliJ, alright, but why did they have to run it headless? They’ve eve…

    Local state is indeed a problem that's exacerbated by swapping logic. Simple example: you have a form + a collapsible block inside or maybe a dynamic set of inputs (imagine you're …

    Just checked it, thanks for pointing to it. I think it's more of a decentralized encrypted messaging platform, and my idea was to have a way constrain the visibility of the convers…

    Nice! Personally I think that the more niche social networks we have the better it is. The big problem with the mainstream networks is that they've evolved from a media to communic…

    I’ve been scratching my own itch lately trying to build a communication medium that I like. IMO the problem with current social networks is their scale and public only approach. An…

    Small nitpick - the author mentions upsert in the beginning of the article only to "forget" about it and use it in the end (insert .. on conflict ignore) and that's the obvious sol…

    I think the whole article can be generalized as following: one cannot make assumptions about relative values. You can replace UTC with US dollars and Amsterdam time with euros and …

    I think the module imports apis are a python2/3 moment for node.js ecosystem. There is no clearly superior way and as a consequence not too many people care, however it hurts for r…

    Nice post, thanks! Do I read it right that using jit results in the worst max times? What could be a reason in your opinion?
