jmoiron plays the blues

@jmoiron @copyconstruct however, I am not aware of how specifically nginx and cloudflare are using js at the edge (openresty style?), my mind is still open there. I've thought about this a lot wrt mongo's ql, attempts at revising datadog's ql, and now influx's new one.

@jmoiron @copyconstruct If you're mainly describing procedural computation then js has its benefits; using a procedural language w/ chained function syntax to build a tree that is actually a declarative query gets unwieldy, akin to C-style inside out type decls as compared to SQL's go st...

@jmoiron JavaScript is not a good model for query languages.

@jmoiron OSX High Sierra 10.13.1 (currently recommended by @Apple and shipping to everyone) ships a new FS has a known and critical NFS bug which cripples some popular dev workflows: https://t.co/TC4pG0qRmY

@jmoiron Extreme. Vetting. https://t.co/dgWCcoe5or

@jmoiron @chimeracoder Not exactly where I'd expect Portuguese colonialism to be brought up in a thread about going to Brazil :)

@jmoiron RT @RaviBhalla: Thank you Hoboken. I look forward to being your Mayor! #TeamBhalla #FinishedStrong https://t.co/UKPuXkDWGX

@jmoiron Loads of really great talks coming out of @CppCon and @Devoxx; even if you are not a C++ or Java dev they are worth checking out.

@jmoiron @benbjohnson @NateTheFinch Like a google docs comment kind of code view? Sounds like an interesting option for reviewing, not sure I'd want to edit that way.

@jmoiron @NateTheFinch @benbjohnson But the scope of the context in side-by-side diff is arbitrary and not related to the structure of your code (it's just text diff after all)

@jmoiron @benbjohnson I love line comments. Writing a function (which is interface) and providing context for some code shouldn't be a coupled decision imho.

@jmoiron @davecheney @NateTheFinch @dgryski @CppCon Love me some 3 arg make. Jeremiah was a bullfrog!

@jmoiron "Expect(t, false).To(Not(BeTrue()))" is the programming version of a regression to rhetorical algebra.

@jmoiron The problem is that we are attempting to build systems that are beyond our ability to intellectually manage. - Nancy Leveson

@jmoiron A little copying is better than a lot of pointers.

@jmoiron RT @NetflixANZ: @Barnaby_Joyce Hey mate, hear you're going to have some time off. We'll send you some Nitflux.

@jmoiron @chimeracoder Next time we're at a bar, let's work some Unicode frustration into our super hero discussion :D

@jmoiron @chimeracoder Han Unification is super fascinating. Every time I read about it my opinion on it changes.

@jmoiron Oh, you can't write multiple sentences in this book, but multi-sentence support isn't an issue, just build a shelf and buy multiple books.

@jmoiron This is so cool https://t.co/ZmsvvO3yZn

@jmoiron Observability is over. It's just too... last month. What we need in this post-observability world is the "transparent cloud."

@jmoiron The work is never done, but it's clear as day the #Golang community's efforts towards inclusion strengthen it immensely.

@jmoiron Even after years of going to Go conventions I still met new people that I really admire and loved talking to at #GothamGo; thank you all!
