Could be - I’d also argue the time cost to the engineers to switch is pretty significant too, regardless of the monetary cost

I think the clear reason is even with their unreliability, the cost of migrating off of GitHub for _most_ places is not worth it, and so companies don't / won't (yet)

Ah yep! I should’ve given a Go example. In Python we use decorators because it’s what’s in fashion, but in Go and TypeScript you just create a `NewTask()` e.g. where you pass a function (as well as other args), and it returns something with

As a bit of a counterpoint, I help maintain SDKs for Hatchet in multiple languages (largely Python and TS, but also contribute to Go a bit too) that benefit heavily from generics. It's especially useful for things where users of the SD

For what it's worth, Work at a Startup ostensibly does give you something like this on the hiring side, although it's been far from perfect in my experience. I suspect other "platforms" for job searching might have simil

Indeed! Materialized views won't work here as PG doesn't support "always updated" / "auto-refreshing" materialized views natively (although you can get something similar with extensions like TimescaleDB).

+1 to this - I've griped pretty often that FastAPI's documentation implicitly recommends this ( https://fastapi.tiangolo.com/tutorial/sql-databases/#create-... ) by suggesting using dependency injection to

Thanks! I should have clarified - we haven't been using this pattern for selective joins. Strongly agreed that pulling down extra data into memory and then doing the filtering doesn't make much sense. We've found it useful in

(Matt from Hatchet - Hi Ulysse :wave:) I, at least, don't know of a perfect fix here. Re: the original comment - Postgres will also error on deadlocks after it detects them without setting your isolation level to Serializable, but I ag

(Matt from Hatchet) One small addendum here is we've had a lot of success performing joins in memory in a few very specific situations where the alternative is a single, often overcomplicated query. I've heard / seen advice m

I was just going to post this, and searched first and landed here. Not much to say beyond that reading this piece made me so happy, and brought back tons of nostalgia for days I'd long forgotten.

I've been using Elixir, which has been wonderful, mostly because of how amazing the built in `Enum` library is for working on lists and maps (since the majority of AoC problems are list / map processing problems, at least for the

IMO this is very dependent on the risk of cutting once, so to speak. I'd imagine that at PostHog, the idea is there's little risk of cutting many times - iterating - and more damage is done by the measuring taking far too long.
