team size sounds similar but it's mostly full time people from shopify and other interested parties (see https://railsatscale.com/2025-01-10-yjit-3-4-even-faster-and... and similar)
There’s also strong overlaps with Varoufakis’ “Technofeudalism”, I.e. construction companies living in autodesks fiefdom.
Instead everybody pays the lowest bid? Does everybody get a token as well? Why would anybody bid more than the reserve im this model?
Many systems using other “preferred languages” also
implement some form of GIL (e.g., Javascript’s V8 machine,
CPython); we don’t hear complaints about it, because these
languages have a rapport for heavy lifting and parallel tasks.
As a python developer i almost fell off my chair when i read this section. We don't hear complaints about the GIL in python? I love the article's tone in general but that's some heavy Gell-Mann Amnesia or filtered news sources :)Also vaguely poking fun at therapy as if it was a punishment for something is just plain immature.
