We've been using tsgo for a few months in our team and it just works (10x faster). We bumped into some small differences in behavior with tsc but it was always because we were doing something weird in our code, and it was easy to fix.

Mad props to the team, it's an amazing achievement

We're using tsgo only on the command line btw, we're not using the vscode plugin yet

I've learned more from Charity about telemetry than from anyone else. Her book is great, as are her talks and blog posts. And Honeycomb, as a tool, is frankly pretty amazing

Yep, I'm a fan.

Correct, I use uuids as branch names, to the chagrin of my teammates

This would infuriate me. You have to index that guid to something yourself. Why wouldn't you at least give yourself some help (your name, issue number, type of change, area of project, etc). Why make your job harder than it needs to be?

Why would you do this!!!!!

And "for of" vs "for in" (the latter typically shouldn't be used)

This unsoundness behavior recently caught me by surprise - and there's an unexpected fix (using object property syntax rather than method shorthand syntax). Also - what a strange behavior by the typescript compiler!

Want to elaborate? That would be a totally fine way of describing Gavin Newsom other than the weird spelling.

Governors perform an executive function, and it's odd to describe "politician role" rather than just naming the role itself; governor for California, Minister or Minister-President for Bavaria.

"Representing" to an American ear sounds more like a legislative role, and from what I can find of Bavaria, that is also wrong, with Minister-President being an executive and head of state figure.

FWIW I am an American but I didn’t assume it was a member of a legislative body. The guy is giving a quote so it seems clear that he’s “representing” the region just in some general sense as a public official.

> "Representing" to an American ear sounds more like a legislative role

That's weird though, executive charges are elected representatives as well for the whole jurisdiction. Legislative charges are representatives of specific sub jurisdictions (counties at state level, states at the federal level)

I think they were for some reason complaining about Reuters not saying that he's Markus Söder, of Bayern.

"Representing" is right, as head of the Bavarian state (not just the executive) he also represents Bavaria in the Bundesrat, which is the second chamber of the German parliament, and to the federal government and the other states ("Länder").

Markus Söder is from Franconia and not from Bavaria in the narrower sense. The comment still doesn't really make much sense.

Also, why did he omit the Umlaut from Söder if he used it for Nüsom?

I think the point is to criticize the press for using the English rendering on the names by referring to an American politician using a German rendering of the name.

This has all been too meta for my tiny brain.

Maybe it's that German humor I hear about

It's no laughing matter

As someone who recently adopted Honeycomb, it really is an amazing tool. Especially with otel auto-instrumentation, you get insights within a few hours. The dashboard / query features are very powerful and obviously stem from a deep philosophical understanding of observability. My team was shocked at how good the tools is.

Datadog by contrast seems to be driven by marketing and companies having a "observability" checkbox to tick.

Which programming languages are you using with the OTel auto-instrumentation feature?

Node and Python. It's amazing how much works out of the box - express routes, http queries, dns queries, the list goes on

Thanks for sharing!

This is my favorite alias:

    i = !git add -N . && git add -p

`git i` lets you interactively add new files as well as existing ones

Which ones? It seems eminently usable from the outside now, at least for greenfield work. The subset of Postgres it supports is most of good/core/essential Postgres. (But I haven't tried it)
