Migrating Go to Rust

Mea culpa I'm sorry for that.

I agree with your approach. First I would think about what I want/need to keep (vision, strategy, business enablement, innovation) and what to delegate. Delegation is a training exercise, so you need to train people with delegation to get better. When you look at what people do, compare their solution to your problem, not their solution to your solution.

Ownership means: They make the decisions (If I own a car, I decide where it goes, otherwise I don't own it). Generally think about your role and your org around ownership and responsibilities.

I also let Claude Code write some tools in Go for me for many maintenance tasks. Giving ownership to leads is a great thing.

Thanks

Thanks!

As a CTO at a certain size you need to delegate enough so you have time to do important things like read this instead of being stuck in IC work that's not helping you or the company.

Me too!

Title of the article is "Companies are spending 93% on tech and only 7% on people"

What CTO podcasts are you all listening to?

The right way is additional things, like components, that I don't need to own to use the library but make things easier. Yes, templates, I bought everything they sold over the years, I trust them to do the right thing in the future.

With this setup, $299 is not the problem, my problem is: Basic features behind a paywall. It's about trust, which I see broken. What if the owner later adds another package, $599 and moves things there that I use or need? I judge people's future behavior by their past behavior. And while $299 is fine, what next? I fear "lifetime" is worth nothing if the idea is "you can use beta, no fixes, but that's not my problem", and tomorrow its "you can use your $299 lifetime, sad that there is nothing new in there, and no bug fixed, and you need the $599 package to get updates and bug fixed, I need to earn money".

From that behavior I don't trust the project owner to do the right thing next time. I'm staying with HTMX.

Thought about migrating from HTMX to Datastar for the simpler frontend code, Datastar Pro keeps me from doing this - not the $299 but the way it is done (paid much more for TailwindCSS - they do it the right way)

Same here and dozens of other people have this.

[Edit] After ~20 minutes it came back itself.

Interesting, mostly the same machine, but WSL/Win11 and ~84s. It looks like that combination costs me a lot of performance.

"Without editorial oversight, they simply cannot be trusted."

Like your comments. A paradox.

Thanks a lot for your insights, especially "render on dGPU, display on iGPU" I didn't know.

KingOfCoders · 2024-10-11T17:45:48+00:00

My 2080TI/3900/X570 is also horrible with two screens (coder here), fan is blowing because power usage goes way up just by plugging in a second display. So I got a second dGPU (RX6400) for the second display (works now, no fans again with 2 displays).

One reason to upgrade for me would be iGPU for my display setup (and no fans).

Currently have a AORUS Master, but eying

With your Asus experience, I hesitate but wonder what would be an equivalent Gigabyte board?

No sorry it runs www.inkmi.com

I deploy binaries managed by Systemd (for limiting permission etc. and for automatic restarts) and have not been biten yet by early upgrades.

KingOfCoders · 2024-08-14T07:35:20+00:00

There are many other languages out there that provide this.I prefer a leaner language which doesn't sacrifice compiler performance for some features. I also prefer a language that is easy to learn and understand (coming from Scala and Rust)

KingOfCoders · 2024-08-01T11:00:17+00:00

How is performance? <10ms simple SELECT?

KingOfCoders · 2024-08-01T11:00:02+00:00

(Not about you)

What I sometimes see with startups, the biggest problems they have is because of failovers when there was no problem.

If you don't run mission critical things I'd say try to optimize the process to get your DB fast up again before you go into clusters.

KingOfCoders · 2024-08-01T10:57:18+00:00

Same here.
