I’m really enjoying
@nelhage’s recent essay series. Choice quote from the latest: “the value of performance is sometimes well-understood intellectually... but it’s rarely appreciated on a really visceral level, and also is often given lip service more so than real investment.”https://twitter.com/nelhage/status/1224144074808033281 …Thanks.

“Are there internal components that can be factored out to have (relatively) stable interfaces and good test coverage? Even if the overall feature set is changing and evolving, are there some core features that are stable over time you can try to lock down in this way?”https://twitter.com/nelhage/status/1218988392899198976 …

The “nanotube computer... runs 32-bit instructions on 16-bit data and has a transistor-channel length of roughly 1.5 μm. It can therefore be compared to the silicon-based Intel 80386 processor, which was introduced in 1985 and had similar specifications.”https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-019-02519-2 …

The car loan was invented in the 1920s. The home loan was invented in the 1940s. The invention we need for the 2020s is the climate loan. A mortgage, or credit, is like a time machine; it allows you to afford the future you want, today.

“That’s how it is with mimetic theory, too. Like all ideologies, it replaces a trickle of type II errors with a veritable tsunami of type I errors; and that, in my book, is hardly a great improvement.”https://arcade.stanford.edu/rofl/deceit-desire-and-literature-professor-why-girardians-exist …

The most important reason to make the move from a dynamic (JS) to a static compiled language (Rust) is simply because moores law is plateauing. The only path to faster is either be less wasteful, or go parallel. With parallel being MUCH harder to do. Lots to do in less wasteful

How awesome would it be if I as a developer didn’t have to fuck around with kubectl, terraform, cloud tooling etc. If instead, the PaaS would let me choose where to run my app based on *app leve concerns* like latency, CPU usage, RPS, traffic patterns (bursty vs sustained) etc.

What are the biggest pain points you believe tooling can address in the next decade (2020-2029)? I’ll go first: - CI/CD. Jenkins is currently the CI gold standard and it’s a very low bar. - Easier abstractions and paradigms for building infra. Kube is too low level + complex.

Why do I work on developer tools? Because it’s high leverage + interesting tech. Why is it high leverage? Capitalism demands more productive devs. Why? Software is eating the world. Why? It creates greater economic efficiency. Why? Computers are better at boring work than humans.
