Oracles free forever tier is so underrated. They just throw half a startup at you at no cost.

They also shutdown your instances after a while and ask you to upgrade to paid tier.

Instead of us searching pages and pages in google looking for the info that we need, ChatGPT is definitely better to find precise info in case of coding. I hope they will always have a free tier.

Hey! I'm the author of the article. Saw a sudden influx of traffic from HN and found the post here.

Happy to answer any questions. Although SQLite is so dead-simple-but-awesome that you probably don't have any. :D

Anyway, hope you enjoy it and learn a thing or two.

I have a very basic question regarding SQLite. How does it work in different languages? Is the SQLite server code completely implemented in Go when we use go and completely implemented in php when we use php? Because there is no actual server and it is just a file, I'm wondering who does the ACID compliancy and query executions and all the other things needed for a db server and how it is done.

> convincing people into doing the right thing (tm).

How do you deal with the burden of knowing/predicting what the right thing (tm) is / will turn out to be? I am constantly agonising over choices I'm about to make, and almost invariably come to regret some of the choices that I, or our team, have made (which include, but are not limited to, React, Gatsby, Flow, Stylus, Enzyme, Jest, SCSS, single-page app architecture, possibly graphql, etc. etc...). Not that I'm an architect; but still. How do you cope?

mathewvp · 3 years ago
Can you comment on why you regret about choosing React and graphql? I'm asking because my Director is kind of pushing us to move from current server side rendered stack to react or some other js framework with graphql just because everyone is using it.

Rust syntax shoulders a load of semantics most languages don't bother trying to represent. They could have made it more wordy, instead, but chose the much shorter symbols, many of which can often be ignored when skimming, more easily than keywords would have been.

They have not loaded up the language with any unnecessary syntax. Go lacks the syntax because it is unable to express the semantics, and is (deliberately) a much less capable language for that. Rust is meant for professionals, so must be able to express whatever they may need to say, where Go was meant to keep junior coders out of trouble.

So we the not so elite coders will stick with Go, thanks.

If you don't mind, what where the things that were hard to deal with? You mention "function calls", but I'd like to understand what that actually means in practice. This kind of negative feedback is useful to improve Rust for any other newcomers, even if we have already soured you for good.

The language syntax itself. Looks like the language developers wanted rust to stand out and purposefully went out of way to make it extremely difficult to learn. This is one area where Go shines, you can learn the syntax in half a day.
