What's the best Windows app signing service these days? I'm launching a desktop app soon and it's hard to determine what's best. Do you have services or techniques that you recommend? #programming #flutter #apps

Most backend work isn't product logic. It's orchestration and glue code. I wrote a quick post that shows how Rama eliminates all that glue code and sprawl by building the same app with Postgres and with Rama: "Rama in five minutes" Link in the next tweet.

Are any other daily desktop #linux users just getting outright blocked from using many websites now? Amazon, Lowes, Home Depot, and many others now say "You don't have permission to access [SITE] on this server". Are corporations just gatekeeping the entire internet now?

After working with #Clojure for 8 years the language still continues to impress me at every turn. As I get better it gets better. I am faster, more precise in my thinking, and can muster ever more clear mental models with every project I take on thanks to its many merits!

Why is so much of modern writing just 'authors' stringing anecdata about what other people did and popular gotcha quotes together? Who is actually saying anything worthwhile? I've had to put reading down almost altogether because I simply can't find good non fiction content.

Ideas are prototypical tools.

This will definitely work first try

Finally using #rustlang for a project in earnest and things are really clicking now. Using GPT4 to keep the stuck->search->progress loop tight has been an incredible accelerant for learning the language quickly!

Have you or someone you know ever had the need to be able to produce and consume off of a queue owned by another organization or company?

I'm faced with a problem where I need to put up to 50k+ repos of static code artifacts each of at least ~1GB in size in some sort of source control. My immediate and naive thought was to just use git but it struck me as a bad fit. Any thoughts on other solutions?

If you are looking to try a different Linux distro definitely check out Pop_OS from System76! Really high quality distro that is geared towards engineering. Has a lot of great features and doubled my laptop's battery life to boot!

Ok I am totally sold on #golang : I just started a really complex event driven web service I wrote in 3 days for the first time and its been running without error for 40 minutes at 5x the rate my Clojure implementation while using only 20mb of memory vs 1.5 GB! Simplicity wins.

I am thoroughly impressed with #golang ! I completely rewrote my #clojure implemenation of my project which involves a lot of very hairy concurrency in golang and it is measurably 5 times faster. I love Clojure so much but #golang is definitely a great new tool I can use now!

I've always wanted to ability to listen to the technical books I read and am thinking about building a solution for it. Anyone else feel the same way?
Anyone out there using AWS step functions much? I'd be interested in asking you a few questions about your experience!

Are there any useful libraries to help with organizing data on the GPU in C++ or another language? I just want objects! Linearizing everything into arrays is really really painful!
Turns out event my Threadripper 3990x has a hard time running 150 docker containers at once

I just got reminded about this moment in Rich Hickey's talk ”The Value of Values”. Back when I saw it the first time, I didn't think too much about it. Was more wondering where it was going. ”How many of you feel uncomfortable, right now?” Classic,
