This is cool! Did you document the format or is it really limited to what we see on the front page?

This didn't got enough attention, there are still companies marketing their own binary obfuscated ones.

Flask (Python) for super simple stuff with no db (I have a custom ldap user and groups manager for example) with semantic ui frontend and crude html. Ktor in kotlin for any API thing that needs to last. Spring boot in kotlin for stuff that require auth and db with vue.js in front using type script. (Makes developing one week viable products doable)

Bioinformaticians use Python,R,Java,Julia,Groovy,Js and more (I use kotlin and python mostly but that's in a niche of bioinformatics I don't touch genes nor proteins)... Same as in software dev, there are a lot of beliefs. So you have the club of the js people that hate java, the club of pythoners that hate R, and people that just use what allow them to solve their problem and they are the ones that achieve the most but also that you hear about the less.

I wonder how the jvm (be it with kotlin, java,...) would behave on these algorithms.

What happens when network drops? Do you have a chance to merge conflicts? Or one version wins?

That looks nice, however for those interested, only the plugins are opensource and usage is not free. The good thing is that it shows what is possible.

I wish we would have the equivalent of the language servers but for collaborative editing. That way you could edit with one user in emacs, one in vscode, one in intellij etc.

The throughout is fast but nvme drives have much more latency than RAM.

Memory initialization is really slow. On servers there is that, plus the fact that you usually don't want to do a fast ram check like you can afford on a laptop. Add to that initialization of the remote management, SAS/raid,... A server does a pretty thorough quality control when it boots. Also if you have a lot of mechanical drives, there may not be enough power budget to spin them all up at the same time, so they start progressively.

Absolutely. And it is already the case, look closely at movies, TV shows, podcasts...
