@jmoiron Great thread on perf. Very relevant to Charlie's work, if go fmt was not fast, we probably would not have code formatters in every major language's toolbox today. https://t.co/QDTHJFBfFM

@jmoiron @copyconstruct @hynek Companies no longer need to show off their projects on blogs to attract talent and top engineers are looking for good companies not good blogs.
@jmoiron @dmtrubman @worsematt I do think the city could do a better job, but it doesn't make sense that housing units could scale based solely on residents, ignoring density, and the population density in Manhattan is ~7000x that of North Dakota.
@jmoiron Was clear there was something special about these two. Great for the fox to get his first major tonight. https://t.co/1gyE3n0YrN
@jmoiron I'm (very) sympathetic to the idea that modern tech stacks are more complicated than necessary, but there's something about the way people throw around "ZIRP" that rubs me the wrong way.
@jmoiron Can't think of a more vibrant time period for new datastore development than the last 10 years.. I think the industry noticed. https://t.co/2O4CZSMWI4
@jmoiron @shanselman Even if we spent time in the places they tend to go, we don't pay attention to other people generally.
@jmoiron @stephxsher @sarahcat21 My mother did this with me; I've never not known how to swim.
@jmoiron @eatonphil Boy, I have a lot of thoughts about this topic, but I think it's probably a blog post and not a tweet.
The biggest hurdle I think I had with SQL is that the clause order in your query expression is different from the execution order.

@jmoiron I often wonder about the way sci/tech pioneers of the lost/greatest generation worked and lived.. John Van Neumann, Alan Turing, Norman Borlaug, Rosalind Franklin, Jonas Salk, et al. Would people view them as having passion? https://t.co/RrXMyPUHPn
@jmoiron @billychasen We're good at refining and commoditizing technological breakthroughs (eg. heavier than air flight) but we're bad at projecting the next breakthrough (eg. sky fortresses and flying cars).. from where we are now it seems really hard to call.
@jmoiron @billychasen My room temp AI take is that progress over the past ~50 years has mostly been a step function dependent on individual breakthroughs, but because LLMs are the biggest step in my lifetime, they will be disruptive despite not leading to a different kind of compounded pr...
@jmoiron Bugs in DBs are like bugs in your compiler or your CPU. They exist in bigger quantities than you think, but not so much that you notice them. If you encounter one, odds are you think the problem is in your own code, and you "fix" it inadvertently by avoiding the issue. https://...
@jmoiron @billychasen "sweet" + "no sugar added" = sus
@jmoiron @mholt6 @rafiuzky Arrays get stack allocated. I think bytes.Buffer does the same, or used to: it has a small array so that you never need to do a slice alloc on small buffers.
@jmoiron > It’s not a very productive language but it’s easy to read.
Judging by the ternary discourse, readability is something that all programmers say they value, but few are willing to make any sacrifices for. https://t.co/5qbjDuEgtd
@jmoiron @eatonphil @bkolobara The infra is aging, but if there is one big reason for this feeling, it's the iPhone. Japan's consumer electronics design used to be the pinnacle, but smartphones + apps replaced most of that, + lack of FeLiCa slowed smartphone adoption, delaying its integr...
@jmoiron @glcst @devagrawal09 Makes you wonder about the Bronze Age Collapse, which left similar gaps in archaelogical traces.
