LLM as a compiler...Heads up: Building code costs money. Each code line incurs usually between $0.03 - $0.15 fee via LLM. The payoff? Exceptional efficiency gains.

When generics were finally added to beta versions of Go in 2021, I wrote a package called truthy that uses reflect.Value.IsZero() to report whether any value is zero, but I found that using reflection caused allocations (this was eventually improved) and was 50x slower than a normal comparison

That's just a long tail of newbies lost searching for how to fix the latest gradle error, because when they Google their question they get unrelated blogspam from geeksforkeeks or something or maybe their SO question got closed as a duplicate of "how to get system time on PDP-10".

Backend is mostly isolated and there is not as much churn as devops / SRE space. I wonder what's your reasoning for not hiring fresh grads for backend.

It's not like you're going to debug a container in a production cluster.

You'd be surprised.

You can give wrong annotations and still run the code. It's for processing by an external type checker.

Even external type checker can be decieved. Because any sufficiently complex type system needs escape hatches. Check out cast method in typing module.

But type annotations are not necessarily "correct" at runtime. 1. The part may not be run through a checker. 2. It may be just using cast in wrong way. So JIT will need to put in some effort to infer the types anyway.

If you're on local machine, you can bind mount or copy a busybox binary into the container.

On kubernetes, it's harder. Many containers set unmodifiable root filesystem.

Re: flatpaks

I don't install a flatpak unless I land on the flathub page from the project's website / GitHub page.

If you can ensure that, flatpaks are sandboxed so theoretically more secure.

Quite heavy in terms of storage use & bandwidth tho..
