Week 19 - 2023

The weeknote for 5/8 - 5/14.

Tech

Dart 3 was announced this week. It's announced that Dart 3 is sound. That's probably significant achievement for gradually typed language.

I found that pronoun.is is now dead (probably because of the change of terms of use of Heroku) and it was written in Clojure.

Was interacting GitHub API this week. I found a bug with the endpoint "Create a repository using a template". When I was calling this API, the call never succeeded and the error message was unintelligible. After a number of tries I finally reached out to the support. After a few communications, we found that the access permission is required for the template repository itself (whic should have been unnecessary when the template repo is public). We ended up using a little complicated workaround to it.

Played a little with Midjourney. mandala keyword gives interesting results.
