web VS papers-we-love

i have around 5+ years of experience in web development. starting from angular js 1 to react-native, react & along with typescript. Well aware of most of the modern web tools, esbuild, react-query, swc, rollup, vite, https://modern-web.dev/, testing-library , etc..

In a future release, Angular will replace Karma with the web-test-runner from ModernWeb. That future release might already be Angular 17. ModernWeb is a modern community project that embeds tests into a browser.

So, you write web components and you're interested in expanding the work you put into unit testing them? Well, you've come to the right place. This is just the beginning, but Testing Web Components: the Series is going to lay out for you how Open Web Components and Modern Web help you to do just that. We'll start with how the Open Web Components generator can get you up and running in no time with @web/test/runner right out of the box.

Rocket is an SSG that allows seamless integration of Markdown and WebComponents. There is a project to support the development of web standard technologies called Modern Web, and rocket is a subproject of that project. Other sub-projects are test runner and development server, modern-web for development server, and open-wc for WebComponents development, testing, and linter.

Just setting up a front end dev environment is a lesson in complexity theory

FWIW, because I've been out of web dev for a while and may need to get back into it, I came across this site today:

https://modern-web.dev/

I followed their example ts+preact+esbuild setup and was very pleasantly surprised by the ergonomics.

I was expecting way worse.

Papers We Love (PWL) is a community built around reading, discussing and learning more about academic computer science papers. This repository serves as a directory of some of the best papers the community can find, bringing together documents scattered across the web. You can also visit the Papers We Love site for more info.

You might find the paper Out of the Tar Pit interesting if you haven't already read it: https://github.com/papers-we-love/papers-we-love/blob/main/d...

The ideas and approaches you talk about evoked some of the concepts from that paper for me. It talks a lot about separating accidental complexity and infrastructure so you can focus only on what is essential to define your solutions.

Sure he was expecting a practical language and was designing one. Lisp was from day zero a project to implement a real programming language for a computer.

Earlier he experimented with IPL and also list processing programming on Fortran. The plan was to implement a Lisp compiler. At first the Lisp code McCarthy was experimenting with, was manually translated to machine code.

Then came up the idea to use EVAL as a base for an interpreter, which was implemented by manually translating the Lisp code to machine language. Around 1962 then a compiler followed.

I'm in a 4th camp: we should be writing our applications against a relational data model and _not_ marshaling query results into and out of Objects at all.

Elaborations on this approach:

The short ask: Anyone know of any projects that bring incremental view maintenance to SQLite?

The why:

Applications are usually read heavy. It is a sad state of affairs that, for these kinds of apps, we don't put more work on the write path to allow reads to benefit.

Would the whole No-SQL movement ever even have been a thing if relational databases had great support for materialized views that updated incrementally? I'd like to think not.

And more context:

I'm working to push the state of "functional relational programming" [1], [2] further forward. Materialized views with incremental updates are key to this. Bringing them to SQLite so they can be leveraged one the frontend would solve this whole quagmire of "state management libraries." I've been solving the data-sync problem in SQLite (https://vlcn.io/) and this piece is one of the next logical steps.

If nobody knows of an existing solution, would love to collaborate with someone on creating it.

Here is a great Repo on GitHub named paers-we-love. You will surely find some great papers there and also some good other resources. Hope this helps.

However, f and g are interchangeable anywhere else (this is not actually true because their addresses can be obtained and compared; showing that a C-like language retains its referential transparency despite the existence of so-called l-values was the point of what I think is the first paper to introduce the notion referential transparency to the study of programming languages: https://github.com/papers-we-love/papers-we-love/blob/main/l...)
