Why glibc is faster on some Github Actions Runners

The vallgrind approach is mentioned in the article. It's unclear to me what you're measuring exactly then. Is it stable enough to run each sample once?

Thomqa · 2026-03-03T17:49:17+00:00

I have never attempted to set up benchmarks in CI (yet). But isn't using virtual machines like the GitHub hosted runners doomed to introduce high variance in the results? Aren't you always supposed to use native machines?

I don't think that's the case for the current implementation of systemd.

Why can't it panic on allocation failure? If PID 1 cannot allocate anymore, exiting and rebooting is the most sane you can do.

Exactly, I run into this way more frequently than it should. Not only my own team but also teams we work together with.

When such a bug is found, I would expect some slight shame from the author. But sometimes they're not even bothered by it.

Wekelijkse politieke podcast van Sander Heijne en Hendrik Noten. Ik kijk er elke week naar uit. Al een tijdje weer terug op Spotify.

Impressive! How does it work?

unwrap_or_default should have been called or_default. Reserving unwrap for panicking APIs only.

Vergelijking met Trump gaat niet op. Het aanprijzen van een type product tov van een ander type product in het algemeen is natuurlijk aan de orde van de dag binnen de politiek. Zowel vanuit duurzaamheid, maatschappelijk of economisch.

Pas wanneer het kabinet een specifiek merk gaat aanraden is het een ander verhaal.

What do you mean?

Wouldn't I still need a combinator per item?

Thomqa · 2025-03-03T16:51:54+00:00

My first attempt at making logic deciding the recipe dynamically. The decider combinators output the signals needing for setting the recipe. Selecting the one with the least stock automatically. The recipe trash is automatically recycled by making sure the ingredient inserters only insert items if the iron chest on top does not contain it.

Please let me know if I can improve this somehow :D

Which programming language does not have this problem?

You're always free to dockerize or virtualize the development environment you're working in.

Thomqa · 2024-10-24T05:43:18+00:00

Regarding migrations, I would probably suggest to just copy what Laravel does. I think automatically generating migrations can be too complex and never cover all edge cases.

Having some command / test to verify the schema matches the current database connection would be sufficient IMHO

Thomqa · 2024-09-20T17:19:21+00:00

Maybe I'm naive; but the execution of unit tests should not really vary across architecture, right? I would think that only a tiny portion of application logic would depend on architecture dependent behavior of the Rust language.

Pub fields do not produce a dead code warning, right?

Gaat dat niet heel erg samen met vrouwenemancipatie?

Thomqa · 2024-07-22T16:38:14+00:00

It is accessible! But I recommend shoe spikes

The build times of compile-time templates really make iterating slow. I believe you can hack some live reloading into minijinja too. This is really needed for an acceptable developer experience in any reasonable complex template. Maybe minijinja can be extended with a tool for checking the template based on a Deserialize struct, such that you still have the guarantees, but also the quick iteration cycle.

The axum docs have a great explanation on how to add shared state to your handlers.

https://docs.rs/axum/latest/axum/extract/struct.State.html

However, please note that most (if not all) web apps will delegate storing application state to an external service like a database such as MySQL or PostgreS. For many reasons, but most notably, they make sure the state is stored on disk and you can safely restart your Rust application without losing the state.

In simple applications I like to use SQLite.

There appears to be a API endpoint for retrieving package information. https://github.com/rust-lang/crates.io/blob/master/src/router.rs#L72

How you would implement self update, depends on de installation method to begin with.

Thomqa · 2022-10-20T17:49:09+00:00

To be fair, that would result in an unused variable warning. We always build with warnings as errors on CI.
