book: Data-Oriented Programming
the book is based on principles of Clojure prog. language,
that has unique and advance way of handling data
and apparently TypeScript also supports concepts of "Data Oriented" programming
Eliminate the unavoidable complexity of object-oriented designs. The innovative data-oriented programming paradigm makes your systems less complex by making it simpler to access and manipulate data.- Separate code from data
- Represent data with generic data structures
- Manipulate data with general-purpose functions
- Manage state without mutating data
- Control concurrency in highly scalable systems
- Write data-oriented unit tests
- Specify the shape of your data
- Benefit from polymorphism without objects
- Debug programs without a debugger
podcast interview with the book author;
The essence of DOP is that it treats data as a first-class citizen. It gives developers the ability to manipulate data inside a program with the same simplicity as they manipulate numbers or strings. Treating data as a first-class citizen is made possible by adhering to four core principles:
Principle #1: Separating code (behavior) from data.
Principle #2: Representing data with generic data structures.
Principle #3: Treating data as immutable.
Principle #4: Separating data schema from data representation.

Javascript: The Good Parts vs "new parts"
Javascript: The Good Parts : ProgrammerHumor
JS has many features, collected over time, some of them very good, making JS one of the most used, or THE most used prog. language...
Still, the author of book JavaScript: The Good Parts Douglas Crockford (he also defined JSON!)is not happy for many more new features being added
“The best thing we can do today to JavaScript is to retire it. Twenty years ago, I was one of the few advocates for JavaScript. Its cobbling together of nested functions and dynamic objects was brilliant. I spent a decade trying to correct its flaws. I had a minor success with ES5. But since then, there has been strong interest in further bloating the language instead of making it better. So JavaScript, like the other dinosaur languages, has become a barrier to progress. We should be focused on the next language..."
the "answer" to this from creator of JS: "never bet against JavaScript" :)

Litestream + LiteFS: Distributed SQLite by Fly.io
I Migrated from a Postgres Cluster to Distributed SQLite with LiteFS
by Kent C. Dodds
Litestream was originally created to improve reliability of SQLite in edge cases (specifically, disaster recovery), but the way this was done also lends itself well to the idea of distributed SQLite deployments.LiteFS
Litestream has had "read-replicas" as a desired future feature for over a year. LiteFS... works similarly to Postgres clusters. One LiteFS node is the "primary" and other nodes automatically replicate data writes. LiteFS acts as a proxy to your SQLite database (you connect to LiteFS instead of the underlying database) and then LiteFS effectively replays data updates to all read replicas. And this reply happens behind the scenes normally within 200ms (on par with distributed Postgres clusters).
LiteFS allows us to get distributed SQLite...
Additionally, SQLite data access is much faster than Postgres...
Litestream.io - Streaming SQLite Replication
Continuously stream SQLite changes to AWS S3, Azure Blob Storage, Google Cloud Storage, SFTP, or NFS. Quickly recover to the point of failure if your server goes down.
Runs as a separate process so you can integrate into existing applications with no code changes.
Only costs pennies per day. Object storage is cheap so there's no need to waste money on additional servers.

in-security: LastPass passwords stolen
Hackers stole encrypted LastPass password vaults, and we’re just now hearing about it - The Verge
"If you have an account you use to store passwords and login information on LastPass, or you used to have one and hadn’t deleted it before this fall, your password vault may be in hackers’ hands. Still, the company claims you might be safe if you have a strong master password and its most recent default settings. However, if you have a weak master password or less security, the company says that “as an extra security measure, you should consider minimizing risk by changing passwords of websites you have stored.”A whole 2 hour discussion diving into this: twit.tv/shows/security-now

(pauses for laughter)
Comedian: "I mean, seriously? The website is so popular that it can't handle all the traffic? And my only option is to 'check back soon'? It's like they're saying 'Sorry, we're too popular right now. Try again later.'"
(laughs)
Comedian: "But seriously, how many times can I check back before I just give up and try a different chatbot? I don't have all day to wait for my turn to talk to a robot."
(laughs)
Comedian: "I guess I'll just have to stick to talking to my cat for now. At least he doesn't have a waiting list."
(laughs and claps)

Podman vs Docker
Podman.io
containers/podman: Podman: A tool for managing OCI containers and pods. @GitHub
Podman vs Docker: All You Need To Know! | LambdaTest
Docker daemon is a background process responsible for managing all containers on a single host. It can handle all Docker images, containers, networks, storage, etc. Docker daemon uses a REST API to listen to requests and perform operations accordingly.
So, Docker needs this daemon to run in the background to manage, create, run, and build containers. Docker has a client-server logic mediated by the Docker daemon.
Podman, on the other hand, does not need a daemon. It has a (daemonless architecture), which helps users to start running containers (rootless). In other words, Podman does not require root privileges to manage containers.
Docker vs Podman: Top Differences
How is Podman different from Docker? The most significant difference between Docker and Podman is that Docker uses a client-server architecture, where a daemon runs on every host that needs to run containers, whereas Podman uses a single-process architecture. Because of this, pods and images are smaller.

Apple M2 Pro and M2 Max
Apple unveils M2 Pro and M2 Max: next-generation chips for next-level workflows - Apple
Built using a second-generation 5-nanometer process technology, M2 Pro consists of 40 billion transistors — nearly 20 percent more than M1 Pro, and double the amount in M2. It features 200GB/s of unified memory bandwidth — twice that of M2 — and up to 32GB of low-latency unified memory. The next-generation 10- or 12-core CPU consists of up to eight high-performance cores and four high-efficiency cores, resulting in multithreaded CPU performance that is up to 20 percent faster than the 10-core CPU in M1 Pro. Apps like Adobe Photoshop run heavy workloads faster than ever, and compiling in Xcode is up to 2.5x faster than on the fastest Intel-based MacBook Pro.

Microsoft processing HW: DPU
Microsoft acquires Fungible, a maker of data processing units, to bolster Azure | TechCrunch
Microsoft had acquired Fungible, a startup fabricating a type of data center hardware known as a data processing unit (DPU), for around $190 million.A DPU is a dedicated piece of hardware designed to handle certain data processing tasks, including security and network routing for data traffic. The approach is intended to help reduce the load on CPUs and GPUs for core computing tasks related to a given workload.
AWS has a similar while more critical HW for managing all network communication and security outside of standard virtualization SW, as well as custom general-purpose processors. With processor manufacturing available "as a service" from TSMC, as now even from Intel, there is likely to be many more specialized, "domain specific" processors.

It is Jarre's most successful single, reaching number four on the UK Singles Chart and peaking in the top ten in the charts of several European countries. It also was used in the 2008 video game Grand Theft Auto IV,[4] and in the BBC drama Micro Men.

Tauri: desktop JS apps (vs Electron.js)
Build smaller, faster, and more secure desktop applications with a web frontend | Tauri Apps
The 6 JavaScript Projects to watch in 2023
Tauri is a desktop app framework that utilizes webview to allow you to write desktop apps using web technologies without having to embed a browser. Additionally, Tauri’s backend is written in Rust rather than JS, which means you do not need to embed Node.js either.
Tauri can also be much easier to use. With Electron, if you want to interface with a native API, you need to implement handling logic in Node.js and call that from the web. On the other hand, Tauri offers a simple API you can call to perform a variety of native tasks like filesystem manipulation, showing notifications, and more.
