Noob question, What makes languages like Zig, Rust, C and C++ the best fit for cross platform applications over many garbage collected languages? Why is bringing the language runtime a problem? What does it mean to compile to a C-compatible

I did have a quick play with Grafana Cloud using the default dashboards for their linux agent were so incredibly slow when trying to navigate simple metrics.

Does anyone know of other tools like this which are a web UI of systemd logs on a VPS which I access, self hosted, from a website and secure behind a password? I use New Relic for APM already, but I was surprised to find that New Relic does

Even if you fix where the backend is & use something like Edge workers around the world, you still run into the issue of where the database is hosted. Making all the work useless. Any useful endpoint is going to change some state like t

I very much like the ethos of Golang for this reason. Still not had a reason to use it but like the idea of mastering the fundamentals in a weekend. Even if I lose the flexibility of LINQ or Java streams. It feels like a scale of language c

I have the exact same feelings. Is immediate mode GUI's just that much better? Instead of a complex React/Redux style setup, how much easier would state management be if we had a render loop like game dev? Does that even make sens

I feel another point is that early tech decisions have a huge impact on the type of people you will have to hire. For example, Ruby attracts ruthless productivity and Go attracts people who prefer longer standing apps with less dependencies

This brings up another point I hope someone tries to solve in programming. Every time a new language comes out we have to recreate millions of baseline libraries and it just sucks. As a dev I want to be able to make use of great libraries o

Also a Crystal fan but from afar. The compile time speeds are a real killer of productivity.

Oh that is interesting, I guess they just spun up a beefy EC2 instance. I'm noticing slower performance, I used to get about <200ms for front page. Now it's 500ms-1s? Or is this placebo with my bias to thinking AWS is slow?

So many frameworks in other languages are trying to get to the productivity of Rails but they just don't have the same spark imo. There is no Rails equivalent in JS, theres lots of competitors that feel years away like SailsJS, the new

It takes a lot to say very little in Go sometimes, I'd say this is one of those cases. Mainly the if err != nil boiler is at issue here. I don't think you are doing anything wrong from a noobies opinion.

That is interesting to see. I wonder if fly.io/heroku matters for the servers however. Caching the webpage with a CDN sounds like most bang for buck right? One request is slow at the start of the day for the news (maybe its a user requ

I voted no last time round as I was not convinced on the economic side of things. Truthfully I'm still not convinced but I'm finding it hard to justify staying on the sinking ship of the UK. I'd rather fail as a country by ou

Lots of credit for yourself with htmx, its great. I think I prefer unpoly myself but htmx is winning the popularity because of how vocal you are! I wish the unpoly creator also did similar! Both great frameworks. Hotwire also! I wish there
