Testing Incrementally with ZIO Environment
I’ve been reading a lot about ZIO lately, even to the point of writing a few simple thinks with the help of a more advanced Scala friend. As I’ve mentioned before, it looks solidMedieval Africans Had a Unique Process for Purifying Gold With Glass
No plans on smelting anything soon, but this was interesting.Rust Runtime
The proposed approaches for async-await in Rust are shaping up.Moving from Ruby to Rust (at Deliveroo)
It should surprise no-one, except maybe hardcore rubyists that moving from Ruby to Rust yielded terrific speed-ups. Something similar should happen in Python, though.Zero-cost futures in Rust
One of the core tenets of Rust is having zero-cost abstractions (as in, being as close to manually written). Here you can read how futures fit that goal.A quick look at trait objects in Rust
Traits will be familiar to Scala or even Go or Java developers, but there are a few gotchas/differences you need to be aware.Druid Design
A friend of mine has used Apache Druid before, and has been really happy with its performance, so I’ve been looking into possible use cases to road-test it.Make your own GeoIP API (in Python)
I’ve linked before to GeoIP approaches, this one is interesting as long as you only want country-level resolution, I usually need city or better.An in-depth look at the HBase architecture
Similarly to Druid, I’ve been checking several things to speed up some areas. Apache HBase might be one of them, and I wanted to see how it works under the hood, I love these details🎥 ZIO Schedule
As mentioned above, ZIO is shaping up nicely, and the scheduling helpers presented here are one of the selling points, depending on what you do.🎥 Pure functional programming in Excel
Duh... but... to be fair... there is a point in here.🎥 Gradual typing of production applications

Everything here should sound familiar if you are anything into functional programmingNewsletter?
