Angular.js performance tip: Disabling Debug Data

While reading through the Angular.js documentation I stumbled over the following great performance tip:
By default AngularJS attaches information about scopes to DOM nodes, and adds CSS classes to data-bound elements. The information that is not included is:
As a result of ngBind, ngBindHtml or {{...}} interpolations, binding data and CSS class ng-class is attached to the corresponding element.
Where the compiler has created a new scope, the scope and either ng-scope or ng-isolated-scope CSS class are attached to the corresponding element. These scope references can then be accessed via element.scope() and element.isolateScope().
Tools like Protractor and Batarang need this information to run, but you can disable this in production for a significant performance boost with:
myApp.config(['$compileProvider', function ($compileProvider) {
$compileProvider.debugInfoEnabled(false);
}]);
If you wish to debug an application with this information then you should open up a debug console in the browser then call this method directly in this console:
angular.reloadWithDebugInfo();
The page should reload and the debug information should now be available.

For more see the docs pages on $compileProvider and angular.reloadWithDebugInfo.
Nice! Glimlach

Podman– Command execution failed with exit code 125

After updating WSL on one of the developer machines, Podman failed to work. When we took a look through Podman Desktop, we noticed that Podman had stopped running and returned the following error message: Error: Command execution failed with exit code 125 Here are the steps we tried to fix the issue: We started by running podman info to get some extra details on what could be wrong: >podman info OS: windows/amd64 provider: wsl version: 5.3.1 Cannot connect to Podman. Please verify your connection to the Linux system using `podman system connection list`, or try `podman machine init` and `podman machine start` to manage a new Linux VM Error: unable to connect to Podman socket: failed to connect: dial tcp 127.0.0.1:2655: connectex: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it. That makes sense as the podman VM was not running. Let’s check the VM: >podman machine list NAME         ...

Cache stampede: when our cache turned against us

While investigating some performance issues, we ran into an ASP.NET Core API that cached a fairly expensive aggregation query for 60 seconds. Under normal load, that was fine: one request rebuilds the cache, everyone else reads from it. Under peak load, dozens of requests would arrive in that same expiry window, all see a cache miss, and all fire the same expensive query in parallel. The database didn't like that. That was the moment when our caching layer stopped helping and started hurting. A burst of requests comes in at the same time, all miss the cache, and all go hammer the database or the downstream API at once. That's a cache stampede . The cache was supposed to protect our backend, and for a few hundred milliseconds it did the opposite. Why this happens IMemoryCache.GetOrCreate (and its async sibling) looks like it protects you, but it doesn't add any locking on its own. Look at the naive version: public async Task<Report> GetReportAsync(string key) ...

I’m really bad at remembering emoji’s. So here is cheat sheet with all emoji’s that can be used in tools that support the github emoji markdown markup: All credits go to rcaviers who created this list.
