It certainly was a strong competitor fifteen years ago. If only they kept pace

What would we do without postgres? How does anyone justify another SQL DB these days?

Microservices are a reflection of Conway's law. You can bend it with multiple services masquerading as a monolith. But you can't break it and when you need to decouple deployments, data releases, and development across a fairly large org: they're hard to beat. Of course OP is right, just call them services too. One per team is about as much as you want to break out, don't go micro

Well, I'm obviously a fediverse user now. Mastodon.world answered donation needs too!

Typescript with ts-node the only viable language

Everything else subject to some other influencers whim. Unless you can join front end with backend, they are all for children and thus destined to failure

Only half /s

Run what you want. Understand that Typescript has what you need, in general. And break out when you can justify it. And you probably can't!

I'm one of them!

Has there ever been a more obvious outcome?

AGPL means anyone is free to fork it I suppose. But they also picked what the pair of them wanted. And could both walk into many a high paying role with this exposure. I hope they do expand the contributors list though, bdfl is a great OS governance model imo

So Rust is capital H Hard to hire good developers. There just ain't enough with experience in not only the language, but service management, the rest of the SDLC, SLAs, getting the best out of Diesel and knowing DBs, and the grizzled nature needed to be leading teams etc. There just isn't enough of it in production to have built up this industry level that python, js, php, c#, and java have. Typescript is also pretty niche still, and thus has similar problems, though not to the same extent.

And I've noticed pretty much every backend dev would like Rust, every front Typescript. And fullstack will learn and run everything and anything anyway. And so this is a temporary problem. Early adoptors, like lemmy, will see more people contribute, more learn, more launch more stuff. And that starts with open source projects.

And thus: I'd make exactly the same decisions. Lemmy isn't a bank, it's more a start-up, it doesn't pay well, it has to attract on other benefits. Attracting volunteers might be easier in desirable languages, will certainly be easier in ten years time say than Rails, Play, or Laravel might be. CV fluffing from OS contributions is a fantastic way to make yourself more marketable, and who doesn't want TS/Rust on that CV?

Lol, zombie government

You've a .editorconfig in your repo right? Right?

When he was the meat of a Ferrari sandwich he had to keep a level head. A rookie would never had managed that. Ferrari also only really gave him one chance with that lock up and he took it, after Sainz had closed the door on him hard too a few laps earlier

That was one of the best overtakes you'll ever see at Monza

Great race. Max had to earn it today at least. 10 in a row is fantastic to see too, that isn't just Adrian Newey

Personal preference really. I don't with soft water in Scotland. And generally wash at 40, air dry (dehumidifier a must for a family), and don't iron. Using a non-bio powder. I also add a colour catcher though, which keeps those black metals blacker

You mean gemini://gemini.circumlunar.space/ surely? Deedum in F-Droid has you covered!
