I'm a full-stack software developer with 9+ years of experience. I spent some of that time at Microsoft working on developer tools in the identity space, and then I was at a venture-funded fintech startup where I was the 3rd employee and helped to build the MVP and to grow the team. I have experience working across the stack, including on mobile apps.


Very cool! How does this compare to Supabase?


We provide support for optimistic updates and offline mode out of the box. Without these it's a real schlep to build Linear-level applications. [1]

This has been tried with Supabase using electricsql https://supabase.com/partners/integrations/electricsql

Interestingly the team at electricsql are now rewriting their solution because it didn’t scale and was too complex https://next.electric-sql.com/about


Electric SQL had a different design. Instant is more inspired by systems like LiveGraph, which power apps as big as Figma. LiveGraph was itself inspired by Luna, which powers Asana.


Good point, will be the next thing I add.


The content still doesn't have attribution.


Has any research been done on what happens when the body is in a state of high glucose and ketones at the same time?


Not that I’m aware of but a number of professional cycling teams have been using them for a few years so there may be something in the works.


Ketoacidosis.


You have a source for that? It’s my understanding that ketoacidosis is pretty hard to achieve unless you’re diabetic or some other serious medical condition. It is not the same as ketosis.


Ketoacidosis would be easy to achieve by just taking too many exogenous ketones too quickly. Ketones are acidic, the body doesn't like to have unbalanced blood pH.

It is rare without ketone supplementation, because unless you're fasting, eating a ketogenic diet, or are diabetic, the body doesn't usually have a high concentration of circulating endogenous ketones.

Diabetics can become so insulin resistant that their cells no longer uptake glucose, so they must fall back to burning ketones for energy, even while blood sugar is very elevated and food intake is normal. This is why DKA is so dangerous and (relatively) common.

Nothing about ketoacidosis is limited to diabetics - its just not common in non-diabetics, because how would you get such high concentrations of ketones? ...


I don't think elite cycling teams would be taking these supps if it caused that, do you?


I frankly don’t care what you believe, but I do care about the ability of the general population to understand reasoning and logic. To that end, please understand that what you’re arguing is not a counter-example like you seem to think it is. It’s an argumentum ad populum - you’re saying this must be true because elite cycling teams are doing it. This is not a proof. It’s not even evidence, you’re not even citing something specific enough to call it that.

Again, believe what you want just make sure you understand that you’re not making a sound argument.


You should probably look into the supplements I’m referring to before launching into a diatribe.


You seem to think that would affect my statement. Pay attention to what I’m actually saying. I have no opinion on the supplement. It’s still invalid reasoning regardless of whether the supplement is effective.


The dose makes the poison.


Also, have you heard of Lance Armstrong? Do you think elite cycling teams worry more about health or performance?

It's a sliding scale from no harm to performance benefits to death. Clearly they are intelligent and educated and those teams expend effort to stay to the left of death...


@sgonz That state results in ketoacidosis, which is fatal.


This is great! Did you post the code anywhere? I'd be interested in seeing how something like this is done.

Does anyone know how the Rust-Analyzer compares to the Rust Intellij plug-in? From the article it seems that Intellij uses their own custom solution.

I've been playing with Rust for the past couple of weeks, and I've really enjoyed the working with the language. The documentation and community are top-notch. The biggest downside from moving from a language like Java or Typescript (which I use in my day job) is the IDE experience. Things like code completion for other crates (which you'd take for granted in some of the other languages) don't seem to work.


Personal Anecdote: Every time I've tried using rust-analyzer in another editor I've ended up going back to CLion (an IntelliJ-based IDE from JetBrains). The CLion experience is far superior in my personal experience. The speed difference is barely noticeable on my system while the completions, etc. are far more accurate with CLion. For example, with rust-analyzer on one of my projects, it sometimes suggests hundreds of possible completions for in a certain context whereas CLion (accurately) only suggests a handful. The integrated debugger support has been quite nice too.


I would say rust-analyzer has less features, but is more performant. For instance, RA works on rustc codebase, while intellij doesn't (the last time I checked).


I use CLion (same rust plugin as IntelliJ + debugging support) for rust development, and overall I would say the experience is pretty good. Certainly basic things like code completion from crates works; something is wrong with your setup if that's broken.

I've also seen huge improvements in the plugin over the past couple of years, such that most stuff just works now. Still some issues with macros (a hard problem in general, limited refactoring support, and occasional analysis failures, but I find it's a hugely productive environment.

(Also, as a bit of history, Aleksey Kladov who was the main developer on the intellij rust plugin went on to create rust-analyzer.)
