I found octopus megamerge hard to collaborate - my colleagues don't use JJ so they may introduce changes that would cause conflitcts to my megamerge. When you have a conflict on a change that has more than 2 parents, the conflict resol

The most difficult part of Objective-C is its ARC rules, and mixing ARC and non-ARC code in the same project.

It’s unfortunate that they claimed “Matrix is a protocol not a service” while they are literally running a home server on the Matrix domain. They should really rebrand their home server to another name, so the Matrix name is unambiguously r

If you feel that TypeScript, or hell even JavaScript, is becoming more alike C#, it's actually deliberately done by Microsoft in benefiting their ecosystem. In this interview they mentioned they had internal demands to convert/tra

Does implementing algebraic effects requires stack switching support? If so, I wonder what runtime cost we must pay when heavily using algebraic effects. Is there any empirical study on the performance of algebraic effects implementations?

Netflix implements "imgsub"[1] - it actually delivers a zipped archive of transparent images to the player. So technically they can pre-render positioned typesetted subtitles on server and render them as images overlay, as long as

I remember arguing with Ron on the TC39 disposable proposal that I think Go's `defer` is a better pattern than C#'s `using`, and he tried to convince me the otherwise. I was surprised to see they choose Go instead of C# for the Ty

Kind of related, a tool that allows you to hand write ASCII-art-annotated hex dump files, while also able to generate the original binary file from such text file: https://github.com/netspooky/xx/blob/main&#x2

This is also a result of the detachment of TC39 and the developer community. Just how many JS developers are participating TC39? I can recall multiple TC39 proposals that didn't even consult opinions from authors of notable open-source

I think React would get better developer experience and performance if they adopt language coroutine feature to implement direct style algebraic effect. In fact the React Fiber system is already an implementation of algebraic effect.[1] How

I wish the TypeScript team can actually make a good and fast compiler with type inference support. There are so many opportunities for minimization, optimization, conditional builds, instrumentation, and so on if we can utilize the type inf

You should do some measurement before calling it an improvement. If you read the ECMAScript standard[1] or this blog post from V8[2] about the inner workings of the `await` keyword, you would know even if you `await` a non-Promise value, it

Most third party keyboards cannot emulate the Globe key. Apple would only recognize it if the USB PID/VID matches real Apple USB keyboards, which third party keyboards are not allowed to use.

There's a conversation I had with Ron Buckton, the proposal champion, mainly on this specific issue. [1] Short answer: Yes, Disposable can leak if you forget "using" it. And it will leak if the Disposable is not guarded by ad

I’m using Telegram for this. Create a channel, sends your bookmarked links there, use the hashtags to tag things. You can share the channel with others and you can write bots for integration with other apps/browsers.

A Docker solution[1] for the same thing using the official client. Performance can’t be compared with native kernel mode of course, but same technique can be used for other global proxy like OpenVPN.[2] [1] https://hub.docker.com

What we need is actually the Matrix protocol for app distribution. That is, a decentralized yet federated platform replacement for App Store. So the longevity and transparency of the platform is ensured by the distributed property.
