I personally prefer https://explain.dalibo.com over depesz's version, both from a visualization standpoint (I can more clearly see the hierarchy of operations) but also because I've had some not great experiences with depesz the individual. Great blog, but a really soured opinion of him.

It's pretty much unmaintained, but it does still work!

There are android apps specifically for this that can fetch from a git repo and you can input your GPG password, with autofill and all

Still would not use V myself, its the prime example of overmarketing of impossible features, silencing of critics online etc

The same libraries that can be used from Kotlin?

Probably more like `weaveworks/ignite`, which creates firecracker microvms from OCI images

Nix and Docker share the same purpose in this context: declaring the dependencies needed for this environment. This can include shell scripts, system-level dependencies etc. If anything I would say Nix would be better here (logical middleground in filesystem separation between having access only to whats in the container vs having to juggle system-level dependency versions for the entire system), while also having better version pinning.

Note that if you delete entries in non sequential order (aka not at the start-only or the end-only) and continue inserting, BRIN index becomes much less effective. Its very much predicated upon the concept of append-only, as postgres filling deleted rows with new rows throws off the physical layout part of how BRIN works

You lost me at saying Go let's you forget to handle errors, when its pretty objectively more vocal at having you not handle them than Kotlin with its lack of checked exceptions, having just said Kotlin (and C#) are better than Go in its class. And I say this as a big fan of both Go, Kotlin and Rust.

Thats a separate issue from the one being shown here. The syntax here is just invalid

Not going to link it anywhere? I have some doubts given how widely it wouldve been shared if the claim is actually true, and your not linking of an example kinda just furthers that

Seeing that for my employer too, it lists tech like Elasticsearch, Kafka, Kibana etc that we're 100% not using and would have no mention of either

Its non deterministic on purpose because thats how its required to be to fit the model of CSP (communicating sequential processes)

That is actively being worked on currently, but is very WIP still
