That's because Rust programs are re-entrant by default, because Rust provides compile-time thread-safety. If you don't care about statically-enforced thread-safety, then it's as easy in Rust as it is in Zig or C. The difference is that, unlike Zig or C, Rust gives you the tools to enforce more guarantees about your code's possible runtime behavior.
Yeah! You definitely need to have a good CEO as a partner. A bad CEO is worse than no partner at all.
Those are some great attributes of what makes a good CEO and partner.
Anyone proclaiming simplicity just hasnt worked at scale. Even rewrites that have a decade old code base to be inspired from, often fail due to the sheer amount of things to consider.
A classic, Chesterton's Fence:
"There exists in such a case a certain institution or law; let us say, for the sake of simplicity, a fence or gate erected across a road. The more modern type of reformer goes gaily up to it and says, “I don’t see the use of this; let us clear it away.” To which the more intelligent type of reformer will do well to answer: “If you don’t see the use of it, I certainly won’t let you clear it away. Go away and think. Then, when you can come back and tell me that you do see the use of it, I may allow you to destroy it.”"
I also wonder if there are some specific capabilities of MongoDB that this pattern does not support?
Would love to hear from others with more Postgres than I.
Perhaps 'Mary' was a stand-in name for "Woman nobody thought to write down the name of," like "Karen" is a stand-in name today.
