Doubting things and skepticism are great. The 100m number is off common device profiling trackers (statcounter etc) but the number is also mentioned in several other sources. You have not heard of it because it primarily targets feature pho

Fun fact - FirefoxOS only flopped in Mozilla, it went on to be the insanely successful KaiOS based on the source code. KaiOS has over 100M active users. This indicates there was actually a lot of technical merit in it and the problem was w

Cool writeup but... Signals are not some opaque or roundabout feature to do this. Signals are a thing for a reason and this is how it's implemented in any threaded I/O library I've read.

That likely means that you've only had "bad" coffee. You're one of today's lucky 10,000 - go treat yourself to a decent cup of coffee it tastes completely different. The difference between a good steak and a bad ste

The bun Port is a phenomenal engineering achievement that would have taken a team of people over a year or two to deliver previously - look at the TypeScript port for example (and they had llms). The fact it's taking a while to release

Text imports (experimental), native addon ESM support, blob textStream(), ReadableStreamTee, byob for readFile, better event loop monitoring and lots of security fixes as well as more minor bug fixes and improvements. (Last 4-6 weeks)

Take as long as you need to ensure software quality. A month without a release isn't a big deal and whomever needs a specific feature can offer to contribute or build themselves. Node has 4-6 weeks without a meaningful release (other t

I work with Devin daily (as well as Claude and a few others) and I can attest it's not a cheap product but it's a good one and it saves me a bunch of time.

Cool! Here is a GH repo demonstrating unbounded favicons I made 11 years ago - it crashes some browsers - wanna guess how long it took each one to fix it :D https://github.com/benjamingr/favicon-bug

We've had discussions about this sort of stuff before. As an Israeli (note the article exposing them is Israeli too) I was not aware until I saw this and I definitely intend to protest/organize about this (though to be fair I&#x27

Actually Temporal does have a way to avoid determinism called rainbow deployments. If you're fine with deploying several versions of workers (and are on a reasonably new version) you can just avoid the determinism issue altogether with

by inglor 4mo ago
Sure, basically: - Temporal itself is written in Go and we use Go for our backend so we expected this to be a natural fit. - Temporal makes writing activities in Go very explicit and boilerplatey - This in turn makes testing more difficul

In the last two years, we built (with a team of 15, now 100) a billion dollar business on top of Temporal that performs business critical applications for fortune 500 companies. We couldn't be happier with temporal. Determinism sucks,

Rust is really fun to work with and the compiler is great, just make sure the rewrite takes compile times into account since larger projects often have to be organized in a way that makes compilation reasonably fast.

Sure you can, if you have a legitimate case you can ask npm to unpublish and they handle things manually :)

We mitigate this attack with the very uninspiring "wait 24h before dep upgrades" solution which is luckily already supported in uv.

First minio and then localstack, as an open source maintainer I find that abandoning their community is bad faith. I totally get wanting to monetize but removing the free product entirely feels like such a betrayel. Luckily, I've been

You are not misunderstanding anything, I use Go and Rust/TypeScript in my daily work and you are correct - it is the OP that does not understand why people use lockfiles in CI (to prevent minor updates and changes in upstream through v

You likely turned off any privacy invading feature and didn’t let the app track across apps. The fact you are getting irrelevant ads is a good thing that indicates that is probably working.

Postgres has like 300+ types but mostly stuff like decimals should work the same way it does with Postgres (with the edge cases like NaN existing in Postgres but not parquets accordingly)

by inglor 11mo ago
Also, any planned support for more catalogs?
25.
by inglor 11mo ago
This is really nice though looking at the code - a lot of the postgres types are missing as well a lot of the newer parquet logical types - but this is a great start and a nice use of FDW.

The problem is that you come to a prestigious place like Microsoft and end up using horrible outdated software. Credit where credit is due at my time at Excel we did improve things a lot (migration from Script# to TypeScript, migration from
