The creator of Nix soft-forked it and started a company, that sort of inevitably leads to bad vibes I think

ChatGPT has over a billion monthly active users.

They probably should rewrite it in Rust, but also, I think the Bun guy wanted to rewrite it in Rust because he thinks Rust is a better choice for Bun, independent of Bun being used…

Love the new site! Minor typo in the Erlang card: “Elixir also excels at IoT, distributed systems, and everything the Erlang is renowned for” should probably be “everything the Erl…

I am not really sure how much yet another post complaining about async/await that ends with “thread-per-core is the way to go” adds to this discussion. Granted I’m both an Erlang p…

No, it’s a desktop with an Intel processor.

My experience with non-Apple Thunderbolt products has been pretty dicey across the board. My ASUS motherboard has a port and theoretically works with it but across several firmware…

Claude Code uses Bun.

Rust is technically older than Go, but who was actually using it when Go 1.0 came out in 2012? Rust 1.0 wasn’t until 2015.

> I think I said named branches, but that is definitely what I mean I think I misread you, because you were talking about git vs svn in a way that made it sound like jj was a step …

Totally fair :) personally I used to be a git wizard and I am relieved at how much about it I’ve been able to forget since learning jj, but I understand not everyone has the same e…

Yes, that describes me at both jobs I’ve had since learning jj. Hence why I asked for specifics: I’m genuinely curious what other people struggle with, partially because I’d like t…

There’s nothing stopping you from using separate changes to emulate the staging area if you want.

Also `sl absorb`.

I assume you mean named branches (bookmarks in jj)? Because anonymous branches in jj are trivial: you just `jj new ` and you have a new branch. Bookmarks aren’t that bad either IMO…

What do you find insufficiently minimalistic about Erlang? It’s not exactly a shaggy dog of a language.

Uber has been profitable since 2023.

Rust originally came with a green thread library as part of its primary concurrency story but it was removed pre-1.0 because it imposed unacceptable constraints on code that didn’t…

Cmon, this is the guy that was running a shady online casino which was tanking Cloudflare’s IP reputation, completely different.

This is in part because those countries have been historically reliant on the US for their national defense…

Huh, interesting. Looks like they were indeed quite different until the Mk3 in 2012

It has found actual reproducible SQL injections for me as well as XXE vulns.

Sonarqube did not flag public fields as a security issue by default the last time I used it — however it has found several real vulnerabilities for me before.
