why don’t we just put a HashMap there. now it’s 50 times faster

everything about the computer would suck so much more without the humble hashmap

Biscuits: A very fast concurrent hashmap with transactions for Go.
It's like sync.Map but can work on multiple keys atomically.

you know what, I take it back. in every memory-unsafe language, a hashmap is probabilistic.

and the house always wins.
well no. a hash map is not a probabilistic structure

(...in most languages)

There are like only three design patterns you need to use 80% to make stuff good and fast and elegant

Make it a lookup (hashmap)
Split it up into smaller pieces (sharding)
Combine it into one large piece (map reduce)

For maximum confusion I’m updating the HashMap iterator to gain DoubleEndedIterator but `next_back` just calls `next`. Iteration order is supposed to be unpredictable anyway riiight

Have you tried HashMap though?

I'm only half joking, all you need to get a DI container going is a HashMap, that's gotta be the most pragmatic

I was curious about the performance of a hasmap vs linear vs binary search array for small collections with small keys. HashMap was hashbrown with ahash. Keys were u32s.

For missed lookups the hashmap begins outperforming the array at 2(!) keys.

Yearly reminder to not use the default hashmap in rust unless you really do need the hashdos protections.

🧵 on using HashMaps in #rustlang👇

Imagine we are a university and we want to keep track of our professors and the courses they teach.

Let's implement a simple in-memory database using a HashMap and discuss various HashMap operations.

Yea just shouldn’t have used the same trait for Cow and HashMap::get

chapter 3: for the love of god, use a HashMap instead of a Vec for your object soup

this is a sorta interesting difference between javascript and rust. something something values vs references

why does the console telling me it doesnt know what a hashmap is
May 14, 2024 at 11:59 PM
i just used a hashmap serialized to disk every 20 seconds as a user login database so

mmmm swisstables

immanentizing. but who among us— @minormobius.bsky.social — could create the hashmap of all simcluster jokes...

the little side quest hobby project is nowhere near finished, or working

but after 1000 lines of code i have finally gotten though the boilerplate and made it do a thing

it's an mvcc hashmap with serializable transactions, and i got a read only snapshot running while i made changes, neat
