@jmoiron @JohnPotocny1 hey john q. about the vc trial, how do we move the agent to collect from a diff node than what we started?
@jmoiron I really don't like of the use of #golang struct tags as a backdoor for introducing un-checked declarative mini-languages.
@jmoiron @billychasen Go's fast compilation (mostly, it can cache tons of work because it has a real module system) is an underrated feature.
@jmoiron RT @mipsytipsy: in a couple years we're all gonna think building our own metrics is as crazy and wasteful as running our own mail servers a…
@jmoiron @davecheney @goinggodotnet @rogpeppe eventually circumstances will conspire to make it effectively zero; might as well ensure that works
@jmoiron @davecheney but eventually we'd hit the limit of that buffer on shutdown and it'd freeze; all the while we would not actually report errs
@jmoiron @davecheney i'm warming to @goinggodotnet's approach here. if there was a buffer, this would have gone unnoticed (temporarily)
@jmoiron @davecheney define reliability? in this instance, if it was buffered, errors encountered during shutdown would have gone unnoticed
@jmoiron just fixed a bug where we blocked during shutdown sending to an error channel; if it was buffered we'd have silently ignored them! #golang
@jmoiron RT @_peggyli: I so want a tech conference / party / meetup that provides bubble tea instead of (or in addition to) beer.
@jmoiron @jimmybb Okay great, I dropped a few msgs in there, but tweet me sometime when you're available.
@jmoiron @jimmybb i gathered that from the store code but that's quite common (most just use disk); interested in formats, read/write patterns, etc
