ES Modules are terrible, actually

This post was adapted from an earlier Twitter thread.

It's incredible how many collective developer hours have been wasted on pushing through the turd that is ES Modules (often mistakenly called "ES6 Modules"). Causing a big ecosystem divide and massive tooling support issues, for... well, no reason, really. There are no actual advantages to it. At all.

It looks shiny and new and some libraries use it in their documentation without any explanation, so people assume that it's the new thing that must be used. And then I end up having to explain to them why, unlike CommonJS, it doesn't actually work everywhere yet, and may never do so. For example, you can't import ESM modules from a CommonJS file! (Update: I've released a module that works around this issue.)

And then there's Rollup, which apparently requires ESM to be u

hi, and goodbye

The past few weeks has not been fun on IRC, the drama based on false information and assumptions has been insane. I've almost entirely been silent on the drama because I know the fallout that would happen if I spoke up.

A quick TLDR - I'm quitting all IRC development. KiwiIRC project lead, IRCv3 technical board, supporting the multitude of IRC networks, the lot.

Many people seem to think that I am supporting one side in everything that is going on, so just to be clear: I am not supporting any side of the current freenode drama - there is so much false information going around from everywhere that it is impossible to support anybody.

Woo freenode drama

It appears that rasengan (Andrew Lee) of Private Internet Access believes that ownership of the company Freenode Ltd. gives him the right to unilaterally replace the current staff team.

We may have had our disagreements with staff, but freenode being run by a volunteer team, using servers provided by sponsors, is a key reason that we appreciate freenode.

As such, we do not believe that such a unilateral replacement by a corporate interest is appropriate.

If this attemped takeover by Andrew Lee continues, we will be advocating to move our communities elsewhere.

Don’t Build Your Own Lisp

I feel somewhat pressed to give a negative review of this book. This comes from someone who has worked on various Lisp implementations, and written some amount of C, but that isn’t an excuse to be overly harsh. This book, however, does not provide many nice things to say, and plenty of un-nice things. My apologies in advance.

First off: God help you if you are going to write your first interpreter in C of all things. No one I know thinks it’s a good idea to start

We love go-jet! We are now using it or migrating it to, in all our projects. This is simply the best go SQL builder we have tried so far. It is type safe thanks to the code generation and the query result mapping is very powerful. As far as we know, this is the only solution that fully supports mapping of LEFT OUTER JOIN out of the box.

We have used straight sql package, sqlx, squirrel with and without sqlx, and more recently sqlboiler. The latter is an ORM rather than an SQL builder but we love the type safety with code generation. Also their null types package is a breeze to work with. But over time, sqlboiler being an ORM, showed its limitations in terms of performance and flexibility.
