elixir has a type system and gta6 isnt out yet
Elixir v1.20 released! Now officially a gradually typed language: Elixir type checks every single line of code, finding bugs and dead code, without developer overhead (no typing signatures) and extremely low false positives rate. Plus a faster compiler! Links and reports below.

Netlify is down. I feel like it might not have been a great idea to host the status page on netlify itself

Have you heard that the order of the where clause matters? Back in the day, that may have been true, but unless you work with legacy systems, query planners these days are smart enough to re-order them for maximum efficiency, so you don't have to care how to order them!

what the heck did you just say about my allocations, you little vibe coder? i’ll have you know i topped my flamegraphs with zero GC regressions, graduated first in class from the school of monomorphic shapes, and i’ve been involved in countless production incidents where i personally reduced p99 with nothing but flamegraphs and a dream. i have over 300 confirmed cache hits and i’m trained in partitioned batching, O(1) LRU, and the ancient arts of structured concurrency. you are nothing to me but another source of short-lived objects. i will pre-size your arrays before you can say capacity, reuse your batch containers with object and array pools, and clear them so hard that v8 will promote nothing to old-gen. you think your abstractions can save you? adorable. i streamline your hot path, hoist Date.now() out of tight loops, keep your result objects shape-stable, and keep your span attributes lean—just what matters, not your entire life story. you’re hiding behind Cursor Pro? i’m rolling with pre-sized arrays, pooled buffers, and a request deduper dialed in to a 20ms window that snapshots then swaps like a sushi conveyor. your workers are capturing the wrong references? i pass batch snapshots into fibers so new arrivals never touch the old containers. timers? one per partition, closure capture minimal, window tight. GC pauses? i’ll make them so small the event loop forgets they existed. you think cpu limits on eks will throttle me? i don’t run limits—I run headroom. i’ll crank UV_THREADPOOL_SIZE when zlib and crypto get chatty, keep the main thread pristine, and offload your sync rocks to workers. your JSON churn? streamed. your registry ops? partitioned. your root-zone batches? right-sized so we don’t balloon live sets for fun. mark my words: i will reduce your allocation rate, i will smooth your event-loop delay, and i will lower your tail latency with precision refactors you won’t even notice in the diff. you’re compiled, bundled, and shipped with --max-old-space-size you don’t even need anymore. welcome to the strongly-typed, memory-friendly, p99-disciplined world. enjoy your stay.

For an IT guy, LinkedIn is like a reverse dating app. Beautiful women message you first, and you immediately ghost them.

I've seen some of these people write code and they spend half their time going back and forth between their editor and the screen with the compile errors to hunt for line numbers. It's a painful experience for everyone involved
I've been fascinated by a special type of programmer, the devs who don't use IDE features like: -autocomplete/copilot -LSP - go-to-def What allows them to just rawdog text editors? Do they have superhuman coding ability? I asked them and here is a thread of what they said:

2020:  Ask your roommate to be in a sketch about microservices (which he knows nothing about) 2023: For 3 years people stop him and say “you’re the microservices guy”. He gets engaged, still the “microservices guy”

Ah yes, non-profit is when you live on the street and starve to help others. This woman is getting canceled for running a sustainable non-profit by people who didn't even read the article where she praises Mr. Beast and raises valid concerns. I hate Twitter man.
So I actually read the article. The two people deriding MrBeast are (1) a Kenyan politician, for whom this is embarrassing, and (2) a woman who founded a 501c3 based in Cambridge Massachusetts that raised $131k in 2020 and spent $83,000 on themselves

They even made this shit into a community note in the original post instead of reading the article because it's such an easy and popular opinion.

that’s the point guys, iCloud is a thing. 💡i always go for the lowest (and cheapest) RAM option, and then just make it use my 2TB of iCloud for swap. i don’t pay extra because i need iCloud to store my and my family’s photos anyway, and it got quite some free space for swap
Apple in 2023: MacBook Pro starts with 8GB of RAM. iCloud starts with 5GB of storage.
