@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.
reposted @lolennui.bsky.social: locked in a game of chicken with all the craft beer brands, they try to make a beer name too weird or horny for me to order and I just keep powering through buttmud o’houlihan’s napalm blonde bog body fuck juice
@jmoiron @eatonphil No technical ones
@jmoiron What discords am I not on that I should check out?
@jmoiron @JackMurphyRGR @FerransRichard 100%
@jmoiron @JackMurphyRGR Isn't it pretty common to have religious requirements in a spouse? Why wouldn't a closely held political belief be the same? Especially when we've politicized so many apolitical things (vaccine efficacy, climate change, etc). There's more to politics than partis...
@jmoiron @eatonphil There are a lot of software developers who lust for complexity; it validates them.
@jmoiron @glcst @jarredsumner @ScyllaDB @redpandadata @tursodatabase MongoDB did this too.
@jmoiron If you're used to the amount of hedging that's typically used in this kind of corporate communication, then the OpenAI post reads as absolutely damning. Just completely straightforward and final. https://t.co/CUMqz59toM
@jmoiron @GergelyOrosz @Lanooba More than a few good views in NYC. https://t.co/wjDErYv4ET
@jmoiron "Telemetry is really all just logs" is the "computing is all just ones and zeroes" of observability.
@jmoiron @simonw @acdlite I think this also might be part of the bubble shifting as one's cohort ages? Less likely to be in the early stage startup of your youth, more likely to be mentoring grads who have decided to join a bigger tech company early, and they are more career minded than ...
@jmoiron @mholt6 @goinggodotnet @davecheney @GopherConSG Can't go back, though :)
@jmoiron @Pod_Sec I assume it's a 90% reduction and something like "decrease by 90%" was incompletely removed during editing.
@jmoiron @benbjohnson Nil Communication
@jmoiron Bad sign when 90% of your engineering wins cannot be described in terms of product improvements. https://t.co/uomqYbMIaT
@jmoiron It's a real anchor on your ecosystem when its central tooling cannot be self-hosted. This has always been a problem w/ CPython. How many Python developers can/will swap to Rust to work on their tooling? How many who put in that time will remain invested in Python? https://t.co...
@jmoiron @bryanl @defunkt It is so loud and dry in the data center. I was restless and constantly bleeding from my nose when I worked in one :(
