    Sure, DBT (Data Build Tool) has been around for a while. It's a way to manage SQL (and also Python) data pipelines - the "T" in ELT. Home page for DBT Core is here https://docs.get…

    Loving this list. One thing I would totally recommend though is to look at tools like DBT, as this supports a lot of these patterns out of the box (snapshots, materialized views, s…

    One question that springs to mind is the in-browser "playground" and hosted coding use-case. I assume WASM will be used in that scenario. I'm wondering what the overhead is there.

    For example, Apache Iceberg is exactly this. Complete with bitemporal query support.

    Hi Slig, just wanted to say that my family has been obsessing over these puzzles since you posted these. Thanks for the putting this together. I would suggest you add some sort of …

    This is great. Looks really nice on mobile.

    One problem will be deciding on when tomorrow is. If your work day starts at 9pm, you have lunch at midnight, do you then go home the next day? We could lose lots of complexity of …

    I think it depends on the type of application, and how much code you want to reuse. Assuming this a fairly large scale app and long term maintainability is a consideration: * If so…

    Sure you can share files, it's works OK with some caveats. More in the overview under DriveFs: https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/wsl/2016/04/22/windows-subs...

    The best answer is to use a tool that saves in the format that the file was in originally. I think VSCode and some others do that. If the file only has 2-space indentation then TAB…

    JSX has zero community adoption? Or was there a missing comma in there? Of the React code I see, I would estimate that JSX adoption is high 90s. I've used both Angular, played with…

    Seems to be a confusing article and site. It lists AR as a disruptor, but mentions Google Glass and not Hololens. The link to "Augmented Reality" links to an article about VR. Then…

    No, de-duplication and conflict resolution is much harder if dependencies are in a bundle. There are many better solutions to this problem: * Fix NPM and make it immutable. If ther…

    Not sure I follow. For distributing apps for friends you can (and I do) distribute using HockeyApp or TestFlight or whatever. There's also a Development->Sideload app feature in Wi…

    The problem with an open distribution system is that it easy to abuse, and that leads to security problems. Most of us all know non-IT literate family members that have clicked thr…

    Agreed. I see the same result. The search results are as I would expect. I understand there is an issue with languages and regions, maybe the OP's region is not US English. It woul…

    I think what was meant was that immutability solves cache synrhoncization issues. More accurately, state synchronization issues. If you think about the DOM as the projected state o…

    Not to diminish the argument, but other than diskspace, I really don't understand the downsides described here. I'm wondering, given the author was an early adopter of Git, this is…

    If everything is immutable then a reference check is all you need. They key is to avoid deep copies. Observables are problematic when changes can ripple through your model/view-mod…

    React also has its own implementation of the Flex layout system. Implemented in JavaScript and C++ (for react native).

    Unless I've misunderstood, and it may be semantics, but I don't see this as infinite scroll. If I had 10,000,000 rows the browser would still struggle with this grid as it needs to…
