Starlark saw its code size drop from 2.95B to 2.89B bytes this month, while active contributor count fell from 5.1k to 4.7k. A rare dual decline in both size and users for the language. #Starlark #github

@thbley Ah, ich frage eine LLM quasi nie Wissensfragen. Da nutze ich eher Suchmaschinen dafür.

Bei Suchmaschinen sehe ich oft schon an der URL, wie verlässlich Antworten sind. Bei einem LLM sehe ich keine Quelle. Da habe ich keine Ahnung, ob die Herbeihalluziniert wurde.

Habe hab' gerade nur gemma-4-26B-A4B-it-GGUF:UD-Q4_K_XL heruntergeladen, also das MoE-Model. Das hat bei mir dann 4 Sekunden für die Antwort gebraucht. Erste Frage nach dem Start.

Eine Sekunde für den Prompt, 3 für die Antwort. Das Reasoning war in Englisch, Antwort dann auch in Deutsch. Raesoning wurde noch mit George Sand und Krankheitsinfos garniert.

Ich nutze LLMs fast nur für Coding-Sachen. Und erst Gemma4 war für #Bazel #Starlark einigermaßen brauchbar. Frühere Modelle sind da total Schrott.

Every day, I'm discovering something new! Check this out: https://github.com/bazelbuild/starlark It's a language from the Python dialect (RabbitMQ was written in it). @rochacbruno #starlark #python

@pvergain I used to use drone.io as #CI provider for all my OSS projects just because it supports #Starlark as configuration format. Starlark is a simplified #Python designed for writing configs and safe execution. It saves quite a bit of repetition and I wish more CI providers would support it. Unfortunately, I had to migrate to Github Actions because Drone just stopped working one day.

Just wasted an hour debugging why:

```BUILD
load("@aspect_rules_ts//ts:defs.bzl", "ts_config")
load("@npm//@bazel/typescript:index.bzl", "ts_config")

ts_config(
name = "tsconfig",
src = "tsconfig.json",
)
```

Wasn't working as expected.

Apparently #Bazel #Starlark is just ok with loading the same symbol from two different locations and has no complaints! 🙃

I went ahead and released python-starlark-go 1.0.0. No sense keeping an 0.x version number when I have no plans to change the API. Now with wheels that will actually work on your ARM64 Mac!
