Know your data. Know your hardware. When you throw any language that requires a runtime, you've added "know your runtime" to your requirements list and the first two are already hard. With that said, I'm sure "1 us Java programmers" exist but I would guess there are more "1 us C++ programmers" simply because they don't have a runtime to consider.

> This is the byproduct of bootcamp mills churning out designers that know how to cobble libraries together and amateurs who make a few react apps and call themselves engineers. I think this is right on the money (for the general case, don't get your fee fees hurt outliers). It might not be a bad way for a community to form if the language wasn't such shit. It seems problem solving in JavaScript is to throw more libraries and frameworks at the problem. Then more overwrought shit to manage all the frameworks and modules is needed. Then framework management gets so complicated *it* needs a management system. But don't worry it's built on the totally not fragile npm system where every package is super trustworthy. 🙄

It costs 600MB to open one file. It doesn't cost another 600MB to open a second file. Electron has a fairly high fixed memory cost just to display a blank page, but after that it is much more reasonable as application complexity increases.

JIT makes up for a pretty tiny amount of execution time in most long running applications, and since many Java applications are servers the JIT time doesn't matter too much. Sure, in many cases Java can be slower, but not exceedingly so. If you aren't allocating and throwing away hundreds of megabytes every second then the GC doesn't even make a huge impact. Don't get me wrong, when you're dealing with use cases with a lot of memory usage (Voxel games), Java sucks and it sucks hard. But if you're doing mostly numerical stuff, the differences are basically 0.

>using way more resources than necessary just because it's easier is something that many of us oppose on principle. You can say, "Well, it's only RAM", "It's only disk space", etc, but imagine if every program did that. There are a solid 1000 programs available on a default \*nix install. What if they all took up 300MB disk space? What if some idiot decided that listing files in a directory was just a special of a browser using the file:// URL protocol, and now ls uses upwards of 1GB of RAM? I would agree that there are some programs that should be written natively (like system programs such as ls) but for "apps" like discord or slack, I don't really mind. I'm not going to install 1000s of apps like discord on my computer. I only have about 10 or so these types of programs that I use on a regular basis (office, steam, chrome, vscode, spotify, and I'm sure there's a couple others). If they each took up 1GB of disk space or even 1GB of memory I wouldn't mind in the slightest.

I know this is old comment but I have been looking for this for a long time. The use case is for source of truth, especially around networking. As you make changes to your network, you don't merge them to master until they are ready for change. This works well in keeping yaml and git, but without that db, there is a lot of tradeoffs. This is a pretty good in between.

Well, there's that, but there's also the issue where Javascript doesn't compile into something like C#/Java do. A package is one file (excluding its dependencies) in C#. Maybe you add in some readmes and some other stuff like that, but it's not like JavaScript. A big package in JavaScript, even without its dependencies, can be hundreds upon hundreds of files and an absolute mess. Especially more recently when npm became really adopted over people dealing without it and making clustered bundles.

Any customers that require caring about accessibility at all. The market of people who don't use any of it is more than large enough that those of us selling things don't care about accessibility. There's no $$ in it, it's not a demographic we care to target. I write software for fully functional non handicapped people who don't use any accessibility features; I don't give a shit about any other market because that market is big enough that I don't ever have to care. Business is about chasing the easy money, it's not a social justice endeavor to help the disabled. If my software is hard for you to use because of some disability, then go use someone else's software, you're not my target market.

>performance penalty of the actual cross library call is negligible That is not true. As your Python code grows, things start to get slower due the overhead of Python itself, leaving you with no choice but use the CFFI, which defeats the "nice wrapper around these libraries with easy syntax" argument. Writing the "hot" parts in C is such a common thing in Python that even the standard library does that. >Even if Julia manages to catch up, there's not much that will get anyone to switch. The benefits of Julia over Python are minimal due to the GIL and other penalties being negligible Performance is a pretty good reason to switch, specially in the ML field, where dealing with huge amounts of data and expensive algorithms is the norm. Never heard of [Swift for Tensorflow](https://github.com/tensorflow/swift)? Following your analogy, it's like turning a plain white bread into a tuna sandwich. And since when the GIL is negligible?

A good user experience can be had with zero accessibility. Most people don't use accessibility features. The notion that a good user experience requires accessibility is absurd. Those who care about and use accessibility are a small demographic that aren't worth chasing unless you've already maxed out in other demographics that don't require that extra work. > Regarding your point about ‘hosting’, it’s not about where a service is hosted, it’s where the service operates Oh, they'd like you to think that, but it's not true. > If you want to offer a service in the EU for example, you need to comply with the regulations. Not true; certainly the EU wants to make it so, the GDPR is a great example of this attempt, but wanting it to be so isn't the same as it being so. The EU has no jurisdiction over me, nor does an EU citizen coming to my site and doing business grant the EU jurisdiction over me. Where I am and why my business is very much defines who can fuck with me as a matter of simple fact. Regulations like the GDPR are attempts to assert false authority over me that they have no legal right to enforce. It's only going to be efficiently applied to businesses who have a physical presence in the EU. > Not even sure why I’m continuing this tbh. I can't say, but I'm right and you're wrong and I think you know it but can't admit it so you're trying to find a way to be right.

No. For example when Slack is minimized and you restore it you can see the content moving around for a second. I can also see that it is mine content and not placeholders. Also parts of slack itself reorder. For example I can clearly see the search box in the upper right appearing somewhere in the middle and then moving to the right probably pushed by some other element. And don't get me started on switching servers which takes like 20 seconds if you hadn't opened the server in the past hour.

> If the software you're working on isn't going to store anything worth stealing, isn't going to be used by anyone who doesn't speak English or have a slightly unusual name and doesn't have any sort of impairment then sure incorporating these aspects would be unnecessary but those seem like pretty big assumptions. You've just described most business software in the US. Big companies that operate internationally need that stuff, but most businesses are small businesses and don't do international business, don't care about accessibility unless legally forced to do it, and skimp on everything they possibly can because that's what small business is. There's simply no $$ incentive to attack accessibility early on unless your business is literally chasing that exact market. > When a project scales and needs these elements bolted on later, future developers (maybe you!) will wish the extra thought and effort had been put in at the beginning. Of course, I've been there as have many, but I also understand business and perfectly well know not doing it up front was the correct business decision even if it was the wrong technical decision.

Isn't that up to the application author though? What you're (rightfully) complaining about is the culture around npm and Node modules in general. That's really got nothing to do with any of the actual technologies being used here (Chromium, NodeJS, Electron, whatever). It's possible (though perhaps unlikely) that you can have an Electron app with no dependencies from npm. If you looked at all the libraries a regular native app uses, you might be surprised too. > Here the problem is a trusted developer delivering malicious code unwittingly that can do far more damage than a typical web page.

+1. Pip is a mess. You have to use virtual environments just to have a local copy of dependencies. Requirements.txt isn't as complete as package.json (sometimes i have the dependencies to the file myself). You then have setup.py which you don't need in npm. I like python for what it is but dependency management is trash.

> The saying jack of all trades is often finished with master of none. It's obvious that in computing world we're trying to optimize things, that's why we tailor our approaches to our needs. I'll counter that old saying with "premature optimization is the root of all evil." Your DB doesn't need to be the *absolute best solution* possible as long as it works well enough -- and as a rule of thumb it's better to have something that's flexible in the face of changing needs than something that is highly optimized for one specific thing. A common counterpoint is Unix tools, which do one thing and do it very well -- but in that case they are flexible in a different way by combining and composing their outputs via pipes and redirection. > silver bullet That's just a common mis-usage in English, don't worry about it -- I highlighted it because it's a great example. > I'm really sorry if this offended you You haven't *offended* me, I just think what you're saying is kinda rubbish. > I'm sorry, but Moore's law is in decay and we've been approaching manufacturing limits for some time now. It's also cheaper to scale out than it is to scale up. Scaling up has some obvious limits, scaling out, while may be harder has these limits generally much higher. Transistor density is still increasing, and in general terms we've found other solutions besides just transistor density for improved performance. See: increased flash density by increasing layers and the number of levels per cell. $20k/year will now rent you an AWS instance with 32-72 cores, up to 384 GB of memory, and dedicated SSDs for instance storage. That's a *seriously* beefy machine, and $20k/year is chump change for an organization that needs such high resources. The limits for scale-up of databases with such incredibly powerful hardware are even higher than you'd think, with proper use of indexes and caching (and dedicated cache servers for Web traffic and query results). With that amount of memory, it is completely possible to store the entire database in RAM, or all the data you'd generally access in a week. I mentioned before that *all of* StackOverflow runs with just a pair of SQL DB servers as their main source of truth (and really, one of them is just for fail-over). [This article looked more closely at what hardware they used to be using](https://nickcraver.com/blog/2016/02/17/stack-overflow-the-architecture-2016-edition/). Wikimedia (the parent organization of Wikipedia) runs on small clusters of MariaDB servers. A well-known multibillion-dollar company I worked for used a couple small clusters of Oracle DBs for all their central systems -- with splitting based on role. Clustering was primarily for high availability in this case. So, you see that it is quite possible to handle the load from some of the most demanding sites and companies with small handfuls of servers *without* needing to jump to NoSQL. Scale-out serves a different use-case -- it's not done just for of performance, but for robustness. Google, Amazon, etc need to support geographically distributed systems, and to provide continuous automatic handling of regular hardware failures. Cache well, use reasonable algorithms, and by the time you hit the actual *limits* of scale-up the actual hardware costs will be the least of your concerns. > It's also cheaper to scale out than it is to scale up. Only if you forget that scale-out requires a more people and effort to administer plus a network to connect it, and networks are neither instantaneous, nor granted infinite throughput or complete reliability. If you're using cloud providers scale-up is often as simple as "back up, shut down, upgrade instance type, and start back up using previous data." Scaling from 1 to 30+ CPUs is nearly effortless and can be done within a single instance family. The big cloud providers have special types that will go up 96+ CPUs -- that's the equivalent of using a cluster of 24 nodes with 4 CPUs, except generally the mega-machine will often much perform better because communication is local. > Cost savings of using a dedicated solution vs a generic one, that requires more resources can often be the thing that makes or breaks a business. Rarely is this true -- software engineers are quite expensive relative to hardware, and relational solutions generally save on development costs once you get past the initial proof-of-concept phase. A $100k+/yr developer salary buys or rents a *lot* of hardware. Although if you're in a region with very low salaries that equation can change.

And what's even the point of having channels within each "team" if you can't leave and can't disable the notifications? Not to mention the issue where it wouldn't allow my Mac to sleep properly and caused the battery to die overnight while it sat in my bag. Sorry, I have a lot of feelings about Teams.

Afterall, compared to binaries, what you get from npm is pure javascript code that can be read and modified easily , so looking for "bad code" using text search tools (sorry don't know the name) like grep is possible correct? While i understand that it is bad , and we got an example not too long ago, i think it's better than binaries that you can't inspect. Trust is always an issue when using something, so i don't think it's worth a bad point here. But that's just my opinion. And i agree with you, electron and nwjs should have a safety / sandbox mode, for code that don't need to access the System.

The full stack tuning is a great question I have. I'm not in HPC or anything serious even, but companies IT infrastructures has always seemed to me a best-effort / downward levelling based creation. Lots of big brand put thei pieces there (comittee effect), few people try to integrate as fast as possible, as soon as it functions, let it run. Nothing is even near optimal. Everything is working against weird constraints. Stupid example: long ago company rotated clients into 64bits c2d machines but didn't have support for 64bit OS nor recent Office suite. So we'd run XP with 2003 Office (thus single core) on way more capable hardware. Now that's peanuts, but I do wonder if it's not the same for beefier system: OS tuning, hardware compatibilty, configuration, thermal limits, whatever..

Nah, big O notation is as important as ever. In fact its a great way to think about everything else you’re complaining about, you can ignore things that have inefficient constant costs because it makes no difference (except when it does, which definitely happens, perf optimization is very much alive on websites), but you’ll still get burned quickly by bad algorithms.

I’m not going to profess to be an expert on native development, but if seemingly the entire industry has concluded Java is not an option, then instead of assuming they’re all lazy or stupid, maybe we think there’s something wrong with Java. And there’s no shortage of candidates for that.

_generally_, sure. Query complexity is relative, of course, and it's hard to compare "expensive" when that can mean 5ms or 5 hours. However, there is no world where a query which calls _up to fourteen_ `fopens`should be considered "not complicated". There are _so many_ things to consider, as opposed to one large table, which is _by necessity_ much simpler. Yes, if all indices are entirely in memory, and (for example in innodb) the table is sitting entirely in the buffer pool, then yes, there wont be the filesystem overhead. But it is still _by definition_ more complex than a single table (and thus single file) lookup. I shouldn't need to say this in a technical discussion, where we should all have manners ("You don't even know how databases work"?!), but I've been a DBA at major companies for 6 years :/ > If it's hitting the disk before it's returning the final results you structured your query wrong and a query explain will tell you that. That is extremely conditional on whats trying to be accomplished. Tons and tons and tons of SQL uses where the dataset doesn't fit entirely in memory.

> The first step in making something maintainable is to make it easy to understand. Don't add complexity to a simple problem; especially not in anticipation of some hypothetical or imaginary problem. Yeah. The author jumps to the conclusion of using a message queue and handwaves it as "oh wow it magically exists in the company!" But what if it didn't? Then you'd have to make the tradeoff between a more robust implementation of this service, versus the cost of building, maintaining and operating a Kafka (or Rabbit, etc) cluster. Which is where the real difficulty in writing maintainable software lies. > Take backups daily or hourly. Similar here. It's very possible to build systems that have near-zero data loss during catastrophic failure (and zero data loss during normal failures). But those kind of systems take a lot more effort to develop and maintain. > Don't write it in a slow language (python/ruby) and don't host it on cheap server. Disagree with this for this specific instance. It's more likely this service would be I/O bound rather than CPU-bound. Using an interpreted language wouldn't be a bottleneck. But since this is an article about maintainability: languages without static typing are less maintainable, period. Nobody serious about software maintainability would use them. So skip them regardless.

>I appreciate the presentation, but I don't know if it convinced me that Java is a good choice for low latency. I don't think it is either. Sometimes though, low-latency systems don't always start out as low-latency systems. For example, I once worked on a HFT system that was originally written in Java. Java was chosen because at the time the system was created, HFT wasn't it's purpose and the goal was reliability over all else. It wasn't until more than a decade later that the company decided to enter into the HFT market and modify their systems to compete. In the end, they used JNI (calling out to C libraries) and a custom Java library, to speed up slow routines and avoid garage collection. These changes were made slowly over time as more clients were brought on and the need to scale grew. The system designers admitted if they had known what they built was going to be used for any sort of low-latency, high-throughput operations, they would have built the system in C, not Java.

Thank you for your feedback. I considered using a more complex example problem to demonstrate how it could be decomposed but was worried that it would take over the majority of the article and didn't want the reader to get too hung up on that level of detail. I'm sure your solution to this problem would be more than enough in most cases. For large scale applications, where upwards of 10K TPS is the norm, not the outlier, concerns about designing your software so that it can be resilient to burst traffic patterns and scales in a cost effective way become very important. Do you have any suggestions on how I can improve? Should I have used a more complex example to get the points across better? I'm going to dig deeper into each of the points in future blog posts including code examples, I didn't go into enough detail in this article. Thank you for taking time to read the article, I'm new to this style of writing, and I'm just sharing some of what has helped me in my career. I'll get better. edit: fixed typo

I'm honestly surprised by some of the responses to your post. Whether writing a cross-platform apps natively is double the cost or triple totally depends on the app and organization but whatever the additional cost, it's not zero. &#x200B; Good developers are rare and aren't cheap in whatever language but it's going to be cheaper and easier to hire JavaScript devs that know HTML and CSS than C++ devs that know QT (I know there are other options but I see C++ and QT mentioned a lot in arguments about portable native development). Also, every developer on Reddit is a rockstar developer that knows multiple languages and knows all the OS specific pitfalls and blah blah blah but in my experience this isn't the case at all. You may need to higher additional developers that know OSX or Linux. &#x200B; QA costs go up. If you release an app on Windows and Mac you have to QA on both regardless. But you're going to do less QA when a Electron is handling most of the cross platform specifics for you. I think the same could be said for support costs.
