I worked at Distru a few years back; I have nothing but positive things to say about the team. Good culture, great people, solid engineering principles. This is a good opportunity, especially if you are into Elixir.

There is a world of difference between well-written human text and sloppy walls of AI-generated text. There's nothing wrong in using hyphenations or emdashes -- I use them myself! That's not the point of my comment.

One of the recent AI tells other than em dash is the excessive usage of hyphenated words: > multi-tenant-safe cache keys > on a server-rendered app > byte-for-byte identical (classic) > gets a cache-speed response > cached-fi

Took me ~30 minutes but eventually I was able to log in, get past the 2FA screen and change a DNS record. I surely missed a valid API token today.

Reminds me of Ash (Elixir framework). Seems great on paper, but quickly turns into a nightmare. Magic is great to get you up to speed, but as soon as you find yourself having to bend the magic, good luck.

This is clearly low quality, non-idiomatic AI-generated Elixir code. So the likely answer is that "you" did not use this at all; AI did. I review this kind of AI-generated Elixir code on a daily basis. And it makes me want to go b

Coincidentally I'm working on FeebDB[0], which is similar but for Elixir instead. It can be seen as a replacement to Ecto (which won't work well when you have thousands of databases). Mostly as a fun experiment, but also from the

I think we are beyond the "theory" phase by now. Just yesterday I saw the president of a country advertising the products of a private company (Trump making an obvious marketing ploy for Tesla). How can this ever be acceptable?

Whatever their play, detect and drop the redirects. Good job on noticing it early on!

Sure, and I agree with you, but what you described is just a break, not an interruption. These breaks were taken at a "natural" time, when you felt one was needed. By definition, an interruption is a "break" when you don

The entire project is open source, so sure! :D I actually have two projects that use this approach, FeebDB (which is the library I wrote to manage a "one SQLite database per client" approach) and HackerExperience (a game under dev

A hobby project of mine (in Elixir) uses SQLite as primary database. Each test runs in its own fully isolated SQLite database. No mocking (or transaction rolling back) needed. Most of these tests take less than 1ms to run (and when they tak

It's unbelievable that he received no bounty from Zendesk on this one. If it was out of scope, then surely he could have published it anywhere?

You are absolutely correct, the current wording causes confusion as to where the speed-up happens. Over the weekend I'll add a note and link to this thread, thanks for pointing that out.

One interesting thing your team may want to look into (if you haven't already) is compression. Of course there are a multitude of variables we don't have access from the outside, but Postgres only compresses data that is TOASTed,

Something similar happened to me about a year ago when the Google Authenticator app automatically updated to a new version. I lost all my accounts in the update process. Definitely learned a few lessons there.
