I wonder how compiled (using Deno or others) JS would perform.

NodeJS is better at memory than go?

They are doing different things in this benchmark.

NodeJS has one thread with a very tight loop.

Go actually spawned 1M green threads.

Honestly this benchmark is just noise. Not to say useless in most real world scenarios. Specially because each operation is doing nothing. It would be somewhat useful if they were doing some operation like a DB or HTTP call.

I'd expect that because Promises are small Javascript objects while goroutines each get a stack that grows from at least 2 KB.

Otoh Go actually supports concurrency.

Well they are all concurrent. I think what you mean is Go is also parallel. As is C#, Rust and Java in this bench.

I have been using Gollum[1] for git based wiki. Impressed so far with its simplicity. [1]https://github.com/gollum/gollum

Source code suggests Astro with React.

Browser bookmarks were always ignored. Now I just save them to Pocket (getpocket.com).

I don't like any service that requires account, and is managed by a corporation.

I use self hosted solutions whenever possibile. For bookmarks I wrote a special program for myself for that, as no other program, service fully ticks all the right requirements.

That would be me. Apologies as I didn't know about the original entry at rnikhil.

No problem. Please replace the above link with the original: https://rnikhil.com/2023/11/12/quitting-fulltime-poker.html

I never liked Agenda (Persisted delayed task queue using MongoDB). This example[1] using Deno Queues & KV is easy enough to be a replacement for Agenda.

Maybe it was just one leg of an option spread. Selling ATM/Slightly OTM call and hedged with buying deep OTM.

This is awesome. Fly.io is now a good replacement for my small team and some indie projects. Currently on render before but their team pricing turned me off.

Fly gives away a lot for free and yet is cheaper than most NewCloud alternatives. Their patient (and painful) investment in building atop CoLos (instead of BigCloud) will pay off in the long run, just like it did for Cloudflare. Not sure if Fly already builds their own hardware, though.

Nope. We just buy it.
