If that's the case there's libsql ( https://github.com/tursodatabase/libsql ) which already provides HTTP clients, embedded replicas (essentially good old SQLite but with replication support), self-hosted SQLit

Most of these points are related to strict type system. If that was the case, then Lisp wouldn't be functional programming language. IMO the first and foremost principle of Functional Programming languages is that they are optimised

Yrs (Yjs on Rust) maintainer here: we actually had some idea about building extension to Postgres ;) Great to see that others share the excitement about this idea as well. See: https://github.com/y-crdt/y-crdt/iss

Yjs is being quite heavily used in the industry[1], and being researched by even more companies. There are also demos showing how to integrate it with an existing rich text editors[2]. If you have some ideas about the missing parts, you cou

Mostly because of user experience. F# as .NET language has entire ecosystem of high quality libraries to pick from, good IDE support (not as good as Java/C#, but definitely better than Haskell) and smaller learning curve. It's als

Only if you're the only user of that API or these entities are eternal once created. In any application with multiple users it's a normal thing for system state to change between two API calls.

Actually in F# computation expressions are way more powerful, as they can define their own "keywords" within given semantics. This is for example, how `query{}` computation expression works - and unlike linq it can support things

OData - which was essentially LINQ over URL - was nice (but incomplete) idea with terrible realization. We've used it in two projects in the past and we've fallen back from using it in both cases: - OData never got wider adoption

Maybe it's time to look into JRuby backed by Truffle+Graal? These guys seem to make something really promising. See: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lRMWwjqbXUo
