Is ClickHouse really more efficient than Mimir/Prometheus? github.com/qjoly/benchm...

Even though I have got LLMs at my disposal, I have been having such a fun time writing coding by hand for a personal project I have been cooking. ⌨️

My recent experiment with LLMs to aid my studies.

This week I discovered the following Podcast: Hacking Postgres pca.st/podcast/823f... - #postgres

Rust's type system is quite good. Having gone through rustlings over the past weeks, I can't help but express that I am very impressed. #rust #rustlang

Epic discussion around @golang.org error handling: github.com/golang/go/di... Adventurous ideas. Ofc there might something to improve, but the following image is still applicable: 🙈

Logical replication is so cool. And this is a great article going a bit deeper into the details.

Kubernetes the hard way completed. Having done that, I have become more understanding about how long it takes for GCP or AWS to provision a Kubernetes cluster. #k8s #kubernetes

“Dear friend, you have built a Kubernetes” - this is a great write up of the slippery slope many people go down because they think k8s is too complex. Not saying it can work everywhere but this is a common story. (h/t to @timothysc.bsky.social for finding it) www.macchaffee.com/blog/2024/yo...

It took me a while to finally add this, but 0x45.st finally has a web based form for submissions rather than being solely API based. Turns out API's are nice some of the time, but sometimes you just want to copy paste into a form. #WhoKnew #SideProject #SoftwareEngineer #Golang #PasteBin #SelfHosted

In the absence of newly-released good sci-fis, I go back to watch gems such as "War of the Worlds (2005)" 🎬🍿 www.imdb.com/title/tt0407... #scifi #movies

How do you check if an executable binary compiled from Golang code is static or dynamically linked? Do you know the side effects of using the os/user, and net packages? "Statically compiling Go programs" --- Authored by @arp242.bsky.social #golang www.arp242.net/static-go.ht...

For those interested in optimising their Golang test suites. "It’s hard to fix a problem that you can’t see" threedots.tech/post/go-test... #golang

Well, this article surprised me a bit. (Golang) -- build-your-own.org's articles are worth reading. build-your-own.org/blog/2024112... #golang

I authored this one a while ago. Validating emails is hard and for this reason I defer - no pun intended - to Go’s (golang) standard library instead. As always, there are exceptions but Go’s std lib is good enough. firmino.work/blog/email-v... #golang

TIL: go.mod can automatically upgrade the version of Go and the toolchain by running a command: go mod edit go@latest go mod edit toolchain@latest #golang

As one transitions to Go (Golang) it's quite common to feel clueless about well-maintained libs that help speeding up the development of a given project. I quite like the list put together by the author in the article referenced on this post. threedots.tech/post/list-of... #golang
