Wow I haven't used enlightenment since the 90s! So cool!

I would think Lint rules are better for encouraging this and has no run time implications. Easy escape hatches as well if you really want to crack the firewall to ship something urgently.

console.clear() is the worst. I've had to fight rogue calls to capture debugging information.

A nice way of teaching the P = NP problem.

Everything old is new again.

Have a customer with a 25 y/o Oracle PL/SQL system that basically operates their business and they can barely iterate on it. Every year a new consultancy comes in with their flavour of microservices and tries to subsume some functionality and they choke on the monolith to end all monoliths.

We just finished our TS migration, I wonder if this would have helped.

What a surprise, a database technology that previously has made security a premium feature is unsecured.

What are those good use-cases for mongo?

Basically when speed and horizontal scalability are very important, and consistency/durability are less important. It’s also pretty good for unstructured or irregularly structured data that’s hard to write a schema for.

Web scraping or data ingestion from apis might be a reasonable use case. Or maybe consumer apps/games where occasional data loss or inconsistency isn’t a big deal.

It can also be used effectively as a kind of durable cache (with a nice query language) in place of redis/memcached if you give it plenty of ram. While its guarantees or lack thereof aren’t great for a database, they’re pretty good for a cache.

I worked for a big news website- we used mongodb for pixel tracking data.
