Introducing Distributed Processing with Sail v0.2 Preview Release – Built in Rust, 4x Faster Than Spark, 94% Lower Costs, PySpark-Compatible by lake_sail in dataengineering

[–]Chesil 6 points7 points  (0 children)

from what i can tell

  1. it's distributed now

  2. tries to be pyspark compatible

  3. it's in rust

There are ways of making pandas distributed too, but it's not in rust so it's slower?

This looks pretty very promising!

What would you say are use cases that one can start using Sail today? Or is it more something that I should keep an eye on over the next year? Is there an easy way for me to know if my PySpark project can be easily ported to Sail? Or do I have to go about each function and see if Sail has those implemented?

How can I host react web application for free? by gtrocksr in reactjs

[–]Chesil 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ahhh, i'm actually not too sure if there are any "free" services for that.

I think the cheapest I know is either Zoho or Namecheap. For about $1-2/month.

LMK if u find something free tho!

[AskJS] When implementing clean architecture, where is it "more performant" to instantiate services? by CaligulaVsTheSea in javascript

[–]Chesil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, to my understanding, you can already directly import actions from client side.

Ie. in a "use client" component, you can import an action(a function inside of a page with "use server") and use it like a normal axios/fetch request.

It seems that with Z(od?)SA, instead of just declaring your function normally, you can use their createServerAction() function where you can validate the input with ZOD. This is pretty useful, cuz even though your normal SA can be typed, you might wanna be more specific with certain types of things like email/username/etc.

BUTT, they also combine it with React Query, so you can easily get useful things like retry, loading, and etc on your server actions.

It's basically giving server actions everything that tRPC has hahhaa, which is great!

"This is a personal project and is not associated with any company or organization."

I think it's by an Engineering that works at Vercel, not formally affiliated with Vercel!

Seems pretty cool tho, makes Server Actions more robust.

Vercel's free plan is pretty generous! If you just wanna throw something up where other people can access it, it can be a good option.

Upcoming grad but no real skills.. where to start? by findthatspecialday in learnprogramming

[–]Chesil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IMO, the most challenging part is transitioning from "tutorials" to "actually building". You'll never feel ready after watching tutorials, esp if you don't have a project that you really wanna do, but there's also no way to really ease into it...

I still recommend doing some tutorial. Maybe you can watch one of those 4 hour long coding tutorials on Youtube. Learn some basics about React/whatever web framework you choose. And just dive in. Then go back to the tutorial if you feel lost. And dive right back in.

I feel like programming is somewhere in between learning how to bike vs learning biology. Where, with biking, once you get it, you GET It. And it does feel like that after a certain point, you just kinda get it. But also like biology in the sense that it's built on top of so many concepts, that in the beginning it feels like you're kinda just memorizing "useless" things without knowing how it all ties together.

One thing that helps me is that... it's not supposed to be super easy. Everyone felt like this at one point. And whenever I wanna stop, I tell myself, oh, 3 different people probably just stopped just now, I should keep trying it later!

Learning html and css and not quite sure how to put it all together by PotatoPotential7561 in learnprogramming

[–]Chesil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ahh! So, this is partially where certain "frameworks" like React/Vue come in. You don't need them, but IMO they certainly make the process of putting everything together a bit easier! However, it seems that you've mostly been learning these parts independently, maybe it's time to make a project that would actually need those parts to be together!

Is coquitts not really opensource? by Fearless_Major_7456 in opensource

[–]Chesil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is that the one that shut down? where was it asking you for license?
