jmoiron plays the blues

@jmoiron @dgryski @agoX @_tessr @OiramYtrap @Rigerhit2047 zh or "voiced sh" is how i explain the sound of the letter "s" in european portuguese to people, but this distinction isn't widely understood (I did not really understand/internalize it until I studied Japanese)

@jmoiron "No, there's an 'I' in it.. no, before the 'R'. Yeah, sure, that's fine. Yeah, haha, tough time in grade school." https://t.co/jZJB9FCKcd

@jmoiron @rugby_podcast cometh the hour

@jmoiron The focus on "never forget" feels more like misdirection every year, an excuse to "never remember" the shameful jingoism that followed, a refusal to reckon with the inhumanity of the path we chose.

@jmoiron I wish spotify and shopify did not look identical to my brain.

@jmoiron @olix0r very sad to report that my first reaction to this was "oh that makes sense, theropods typically could not pronate their hands", maybe i have been watching too many paleontology videos

@jmoiron @copyconstruct May be a little biased, but I've found tracing to be really useful at chasing outlier latency. It also will often reveal that you are not measuring something that is nonetheless taking significant time. It's hard to track parallel sub requests with logs.

@jmoiron @chimeracoder 🤔

@jmoiron @Nate_Cohn "In the judgement of the public" sure sounds like "officer involved shooting" but for journalists.

@jmoiron @mikefiedler @lapsu @jordanorelli Yes: https://t.co/Vsj6Wf5PSg What I don't get is people who seemingly take so much pride in their ability to employ complex language features that they consider Go's simplicity to be a personal affront to their intelligence.

@jmoiron @lapsu @jordanorelli @mikefiedler There is a famous rant titled "Go's design is a disservice to intelligent developers."

@jmoiron @lapsu @jordanorelli @mikefiedler The most recent version of this was on the orange site, and read: "The language doesn't scale with my ability and in some sense seems almost patronizing" Not the only example I've seen recently. Not absolving issues with the community, but it'...

@jmoiron I keep reading developers who praise Go's simplicity but have ultimately decided it's not for them because they've grown to find it "patronizing", and I wonder, do they sometimes just pick up a hammer and think "this piece of shit thinks I'm an idiot."

@jmoiron Even the fact that there were people who were 100% right back in 2001 about what the war in Afghanistan would become is being memory holed because we continue to interview the same set of people who either got it wrong or were the very architects of the calamity.

@jmoiron RT @solomonmissouri: Last time you was out here... Out here was different...

@jmoiron RT @glcst: I'll be talking at P99 conf about performance of async rust and how the existing executors compare. Stay tuned!

@jmoiron Every time I see a link that is about Datalog: "Oooh.. oh."

@jmoiron This is a nice rhetorical change in posture that I think would prevent a lot of common mistakes people make when they "let the data lead the way". https://t.co/75iKSX3d9S

@jmoiron Gutted to learn this morning that incredibly funny man and carrot-in-a-box world champion Sean Lock has passed away.

@jmoiron @dancmorell thank you for the kind words :)

@jmoiron @amontalenti The comp & power structure of engineering orgs have management at the top. That's a really powerful incentive. Most people would be willing to do something they enjoy less if it meant they were better compensated.
