Since we're on about distribution, I converted a nodejs application to Crystal. The docker containers were 1GB vs 20MB.

I've never written a line of ruby in my life. For me, Crystal is an easier and asthetically prettier alternative to rust. It's syntax and type system are superior to golang. It doe…

But they paid for the $4,000 treadmill, not expecting it to magically become the $400 treadmill.

I'm attempting to make a ERD and most of what I find on google are just heavily SEO'd SaaS-wares begging me to pay $$ per month for the privilege of manually dragging my mouse arou…

I typically suggest something like your first 25 domains are exempt, registered businesses also get some reasonable amount. Past that there should be a relatively hefty squatting f…

My first thought, while I don't know the exact rights of the parties involved, they should have filed a complaint with ICANN regardless.

While true, a free and open web is generally desirable, and we'd like to keep the barriers of entry for federation to a minimum. If someone was ready to start mycool.forum, but doe…

Was it {firstname}{lastname}.gtld or only one of those?

I do have a complaint about relatively new TLDs. Did you know .forum domains are $500 to $2000 per year? We live in a world where everybody is complaining about censorship and nazi…

This is awesome, I'll probably try it out soon. My primary use case is that I don't want my end user(s) to know the IP address of my core application. But, the option to pay someon…

This is pretty cool. Is it opensource? What stack is it built with?

> Ruby 3 does static typing Categorically, what I've seen of this falls closer to "lintable comments" than it does "actual static types". Static types are a foundational aspect of …

Reality: Kotlin's value proposition is android development.

Sounds like a fair compromise when the alternatives includes at least one of the following tradeoffs: harder, less safe, and/or slower.

That doesn't stop 99% of the mind share and language design from being "Java with lipstick".

> Python is usually fast enough when not using python Agreed.

Crystal does a better job with making portable binaries. For example I have written an app that's a 20MB alpine docker container. A comparable app written in Elixir used an 800MB a…

I feel like websockets get waaay too much hype and attention compared to SSE, especially for use cases that are barely interactive at all.

A similar list for free to use bootstrap 4/5 themes (like https://bootswatch.com/ but I already know about bootswatch) is in my wishlist.

I wrote https://sql.greatenemy.com/ because I needed a quick way to make app generated SQL statements readable. None of the alternatives I could find quickly via search engine at t…

This was my experience with typescript. Nothing I actually wanted to use had first class support for typescript. Nothing I settled with didn't have endless compiler errors that had…
