    I believe there are tradeoffs which is why this doesn't exist. Isn't the compile speed of Go so good because it's type system is much simpler?

    That's super interesting and I am convinced by the dbfiddle but is not very intuitive or well documented? https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/hash-index.html

    I didn't take the parent comment to be dismissive or false advertising or that the parent commenter is even that upset about anything. It's just constructive criticism. The origina…

    It’s definitely a bit annoying and verbose in Java but I think creating an interface to support testing is a net positive. That interface is the specification of what that concrete…

    The idea that LLMs are amazing at comprehension but we are expected to read original documents seems contradictory to me? I’m also wary of using them as editors and losing the writ…

    I never gelled with how SQLC needs to know about your schema via the schema file. I'm used to flyway where you can update the schema as long as it's versioned correctly such that r…

    The maths says unlikely. Kinetic energy=0.5mv^2 The two variables are orders of magnitude smaller in one scenario, and the function grows quadratically.

    Bringing up these points when talking about improving urban transit is harmful. These points always appear in reaction to urbanist policy and all of a sudden care about the minorit…

    Is their existence just speculation or is there mathematical / empirical observations that suggest they exist we just don’t know about them? Is it guaranteed, or highly likely, tha…

    There is definitely space for an opinionated set of libraries and boiler plate code for golang projects like this. Having said that, I’d bet that the go community consensus is that…

    You guys are lucky in the NL that you have the _option_ to bike, drive, public transport. Maybe driving is still the fastest but the others are still treated as first class citizen…

    Slightly off-topic and maybe against the typical viewpoint of the site, but if they spent this much money on bike lanes, e-bikes and public transport, self driving cars (and all ca…

    How do you enforce that rule? It’s not always easy to pick your flight and aircraft like that (without a lot of money). I’ve got a flight with a national carrier and it’s on a 777;…

    I've been thinking about this recently also. I can't think of any downsides off the top of my head but I might be blinded by the idea? Can you?

    I don't think you read the article, or if you did you didn't understand it. The idea isn't books themselves are good or bad, it's that the same book can be good or bad depending on…

    The only trouble I have with all of this is that I became who I am by being obsessed with my computer. I’m fairly confident many people on this site would not have become software …

    As much as all the suggestions of us not existing before and that our selves are an illusion etc. are comforting. They don't answer the fact that I find being alive really really r…

    Comforting, but being a wave is the cool part. The composition of our parts is what makes us regardless of whether or not they carry on existing. Is a car still a car when the engi…
