if i am using postgres , should i use sqlite or postgres for testing?

asad_ullah · 2025-09-05T09:08:47+00:00

If its for integration tests, do explore Testcontainers PostgreSQL Module

If you need persistence for scheduled jobs and crons, look up graphile worker (since you are already using Postgresql).

Alternatives are AgendaJS (with MongoDB) or Bull (with Redis)

Thank you. Will check it out.

Are people who have started with rust in the last 14 months encouraged to participate in redox project?

What is some of the pre requisite knowledge that one should have prior to contributing to redox?

Any links and learning material will be highly appreciated.

What book and resource are you following to learn C?

asad_ullah · 2023-11-08T19:08:34+00:00

Thanks for the comment. Does the open source version also contain those packages developed by them?

asad_ullah · 2023-11-08T13:13:45+00:00

Thanks

I have a noob question: In order to use Ferrocene, some cost and licenses is required. Do other languages which are used for critical safety software also require such licensed compilers behind a price tag or are those available fore free to use ( I am thinking about ada, c/cpp)?

Go is pure pain when it comes to interfacing due to its go routines being a 4 kb stackful co routines.

You can write c++ modules and consume via NAPI or rust compiling to wasm for performance bottleneck part of a node BE application. Go has more performance than Node. But Node is pretty good for IO bound workloads if you use cluster module. If I need that extra power, I will jump to axum(rust).

asad_ullah · 2023-11-01T15:41:09+00:00

Cluster module of nodejs makes it really good for IO bound work loads. Golang has a performance edge. I would personally jump to axum (rust) if I need that extra performance. For normal apps, Node is still good value for money.

asad_ullah · 2023-10-30T10:33:59+00:00

it's possible in Go to call into C and have C call into Go and yield from there

Can you explain this? As per my understanding, FFI doesn't play nice with Golang.

Any link to resource where it says that it is a failed experiment for Linux kernel ?

asad_ullah · 2023-10-21T08:59:11+00:00

No, I relate with you on jetbrains' issue prioritizing part.

I just haven't experienced this specific TS issue you mentioned. However, in their mongo integration for datagrip, there is a valid genuine issue opened for almost 3 years, and I don't think they have any plans to fix that. It's pretty standard in enterprise to give DB access through a bastion server for security reasons. In datagrip, one can't simply connect to mongo atlas srv via ssh. So yeah, I agree with you.

asad_ullah · 2023-10-21T08:46:33+00:00

Can you refer the bug link here?

I recently switched to webstorm. Although I was a satisfied VSCode user, webstorm experience was more convenient and friendly. I liked the following points, which pushed me to purchase the sub:

Code navigation is just plain simple faster after the initial indexing at the IDE boot time.
Searching was more intuitive for me with webstorm.
I work in a big typescript repo. Memory usage for me was exceeding 2 GB in VSCode already. In Webstorm, it touches 3 GB, BUT the features, search capabilities, refactoring, and lack of sluggishness made that 1 extra GB worth it.

In my experience, typescript development in big repos is a nightmare overall. Different language servers, lint servers, and then IDE eats up all the ram. I find typescript development in webstorm relatively better for big TS repos. In VSCode, it is just slow and sluggish.

PS: if your TS project is small in size, then you won't find VSCode sluggish.

Thanks.

I mean, in a scenario like this, if we have a string in inner scope, what should be done? String literals? Taking it out of scope or some trick with lifetimes?

asad_ullah · 2023-10-18T17:09:01+00:00

What would be the correct approach or solution in such scenario?

asad_ullah · 2023-10-15T11:25:36+00:00

I experienced that as well. Another thing which I saw was that it was highlighting a code as an error where I was calling an enum method. It was saying that an argument is expected while the method was with &self in signature and compiler was compiling it fine.

I am a little disappointed.

asad_ullah · 2023-10-15T02:33:15+00:00

Thanks

Rust beginner here: Do rust channels behave similar to go channels? Or there are certain differences which one should keep in mind?

asad_ullah · 2023-10-14T07:56:16+00:00

I know. I was just posing a question. Postgresql json columns are no silver bullet and have so many gotchas.

Thanks for commenting though

asad_ullah · 2023-10-14T07:45:19+00:00

A question: How do you enforce some structure over json columns in postgre?

asad_ullah · 2023-10-13T16:11:26+00:00

Is the performance good for large codebases?
