Discussions about backend development
I am once again humbled by my continued role as the perpetrator of my own terrible coding. I was discussing a coding issue with Claude AI and it asked, “what are the values of the constants in your code”?
I…I'm not calling the correct constants in my code. 😩
On StackOverflow I'd get flamed, roasted, downvoted, and my question deleted. Man, I love (helpful) AI.

Good graphql benchmarking tool https://github.com/the-guild-org/gateways-benchmark/tree/main
"Kubernetes is for big companies only" - shut up.
team of 5 can do it. They seem great judging from their API docs + Hiring page.
Would work there.

There's finally a growing discussion about moving away from PaaS into simple deployable fullstack services (thanks to @dhh of course).
I'm so here for it. We have been deploying our services to bare metal using https://kamal-deploy.org/ since day 1

I gotta say, as boring as it sounds, I thoroughly enjoy creating GraphQL schema and mapping it to my EdgeDB functions.
I always like the content Matt puts out about go. https://www.bytesizego.com/blog/golang-time
Do you prefer ArgoCD or fluxCD and why?

This channel has rotted :(
This is a great listen for anyone who works on backend.

One thing I never liked about many Apache projects is that they're written in JVM languages. I don't get doing system development in Java.
I guess it made more sense years ago and JVM has been turned significantly but still.
I hope no one seriously does system development on NodeJS. Bun might be a more performant option when it matures but I'd still stay away from any JS/TS runtime for system stuff.

Have folks here played with NATS? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hjXIUPZ7ArM
This week we found out during some load tests that our metrics library (cloudwatch) could not keep up with the requests, eventually OOMing the pods. This is an inherent issue with push-based metrics vs pull-based ones (e.g. Prom). With pull-based metrics you do zero outbound API calls, just have the scraper hit your metrics endpoint at a rate that you control. Prometheus ftw!
Let's say I'll be tinkering with dotnet https://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/#section=data-r22&hw=ph&test=fortune
Incredible home cluster running ecommerce production. Would recommend to read some of the comments.

This is great. My preferred stack is pretty similar, swapping django for phoenix. https://anthonynsimon.com/blog/one-man-saas-architecture/
After a year in production, I can confidently say: GraphQL subscriptions suck. We have much better tools to do the same thing, cleaner, faster, and more efficiently.
Does anyone have recommendations for a good SIMPLE logging service? I just want to be able to put some version of a console.log and via it in some hosted dashboard somewhere else.
I literally do not care about uptime monitoring or anything else.

nobody would write init_o_auth and a_p_i_endpoint, so miscapitalizing initialisms and midcap words in your javascript variables is wrong (ideal: initOauth, apiEndpoint)
