    I'm very surprised you find this workflow more efficient than just writing the code. I find constructing the mental model of the solution and how it fits into existing system and c…

    Disadvantages don't list performance hit for proxying every operation through another indirection layer. Can this sort of interface be implemented with zero overhead in Rust?

    That's why you see such a difference in time saved using LLMs for programming across the population. If you have all the domain knowledge and the problem is generic enough it's a 1…

    This approach to security is backwards. It's way harder to find security issues than to never include them in the first place. This approach might work for another webapp but I hig…

    Looks like we're in a similar situation. What is your current go-to for setting up lean incremental data pipelines? For me the core of the solution - parquet in object store at res…

    What would be the largest difference to Kurrent (former EventStore)?

    I find LLMs via Aider great for: * code translation - e.g. convert a self-contained implementation of a numerical algorithm from one language to another and generate test cases and…

    > I think it's a bit of a myth that (ignoring FPGAs) that writing a low-latency software trading system is a time/cost expensive process. This depends a lot on the complexity of th…

    Interesting that this is Clojure and it doesn't mention Hoplon/Javelin[0] as prior work. I've used Hoplon/UI[1] to implement a moderately complex web app ~6 years ago. The library …

    People are already making progress on this, e.g. the H3 project[1]. [1] https://arxiv.org/abs/2212.14052

    I wonder if HdrHistogram[1] could have done the job. Didn't find any references to that one in the post. [1]: http://hdrhistogram.org/

    Oh wow, do you find this sort of a career fulfilling?

    Had to do the same. However, I do handstand push ups on small parallettes[0] which keeps the wrist in the similar position as doing fist push ups, but doesn't hurt my knuckles. [0]…

    How did it work out? Very curious, as such granularity of deployable units seems absurd unless it's deployed into a single runtime...

    Very good points. Agree with most of them - especially the lack of interfaces. I'm currently working on a ~30k LOC Julia codebase which was mostly written by myself. This is split …

    It's using a standard-year/month/day convention which might be what's required in that particular case. It's definitely not a generic solution.

    I think this is completely OK. We treat our physical valuables with care. Why would we treat our digital valuables otherwise?

    They were probably also sourcing their state from the events. However most of their problems come from sharing the events between the modules/services which is not a part of Event …

    > I think one major problem is that "Event Sourcing" can mean subtly different things to different people. You're right. Here's a list of posts[1] about Event Streaming which claim…

    I'll answer for Switzerland which also has a strong bicycling culture. People cycle while they're physically able. I have a neighbour couple who are around 70 and cycle everywhere …

    Don't worry! I gave it as an example of a behaviour we learn as kids which is easily explained because we know about microbes and the process of teeth decay. However, people have b…

    How would a person follow a tradition of economic growth? Do you mean consumerism? I don't think that one fits either as it's something people choose to do because it provides sati…
