PERTAIN_TOProblem

After the first request, all subsequent requests return the same timestamp — deploying to Vercel. Tension: even though I'm using new Date() in the handler. Outcome: The primary issue is with function instances being reused in Vercel's serverless environment.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

your `getBrazilDateTime()` function correctly create a new Date object each time it's called — the serverless function's instance remains "warm" between requests. Tension: the outer scope of. Outcome: Objects declared outside of the function's handler method remain initialized.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

functions default to running in the USA — I set the regions configuration in the Vercel config to France. Tension: didn't notice any difference.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

Error: Can't deploy more than one path. Tension: I already tried to delete the vercel.json file as there are two cron jobs defined which according to the vercel AI assistant could possibly cause the issue. Outcome: Verion of Vercel CLI: 37.14.0.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

Vercel build fails while installing mysqlclient on Python 3.8

PERTAIN_TOSolution

Set MYSQLCLIENT_CFLAGS and MYSQLCLIENT_LDFLAGS, or install mysqlclient before requirements.txt in the GitHub Actions job

PERTAIN_TOProblem

the cache doesn't work across processes — workers might be pre-forked. Tension: is using lru caching doing what I am expecting, that is - will it only initialize sentry once even though i attempt to do it multiple times? Outcome: provided it's called within the same process.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

provided it's called within the same process — workers might be pre-forked. Tension: the cache doesn't work across processes. Outcome: each process got its own cache.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

I also offer an alternative `executor` class which can preserve the contextvar values across threads — when YOUR code is the one making the `loop.run_in_executor` call. Tension: in this example, the code making this is the framework code. Outcome: but that can only be used when YOUR code is the one making the `loop.run_in_executor` call.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

Yes, it will be reset as soon as the current HTTP view is done. — in a FastAPI app, that is done by the framework + application server (asgi or uvicorn). Tension: what will happen to SqlAlchemy session that is set in ContextVar if not to reset it? Outcome: the co-routine `main` returns.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

it will be reset as soon as the current HTTP view is done. Tension: unless explicitly saved with something like a `contextvars.copy_context()` call while the task is active. Outcome: the forked context is disposed.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

java.lang.IllegalAccessError: class org.apache.spark.storage.StorageUtils$ (in unnamed module @0x7b8a43da) cannot access class sun.nio.ch.DirectBuffer — using scala 2.12.12, sbt 1.6.0, spark 3.5.1 with java 17 to run spark jobs. Tension: module java.base does not export sun.nio.ch to unnamed module.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

I found a trick forking the jvm, below sbt config — for unit tests. Tension: must be the same idea for classic run (fork + javaOptions).

PERTAIN_TOProblem

Error -2 connecting to redistester:6380. Name or service not known.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

Try to add checkout step before tests.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

Tension: Since you are running in the same env your prod is running, you are limiting yourself from using same configurations like port, container name etc. Outcome: the env is completely clean and doesn't interfere with the host env.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

In GitHub Actions, the same workflow job cannot automatically use environment-specific context (e.g., vars) across multiple target environments. `vars.CLUSTER_URL` is not resolving unless the job specifies an `environment`.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

Set `environment` for the job (or create separate deploy jobs per environment) or refactor the logic into a reusable workflow and invoke it once per environment, passing the desired environment via `workflow_call` inputs.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

my solver ALWAYS fails after 200-210 attempts — Antibot Solver hosted as python flask server. Tension: it does not help to restart the client side code. Outcome: turning off the flask server and restarting it immediately lets me get another 200 success.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

turning off the flask server and restarting it immediately lets me get another 200 success — After my client side code beats the Antibot 200-220 times it ALWAYS starts failing. Tension: it does not help to restart the client side code. Outcome: restart the flask server again.

PERTAIN_TORootCause

my own testing code runs in the same program as the student code. Outcome: A general-purpose multiuser operating system segregates the memory of different processes.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

the students are still able to guess the correct file descriptor of stdout and write to it. Tension: this is not secure as a student can do `int student_function(int foo) { printf("OK"); exit(1) }` and pass all tests. Outcome: would it make sense to fork the process, and use some magic based on seccomp etc?

PERTAIN_TOSolution

Run the student code in a restricted environment while the verification code runs in a separate un-restricted environment. Tension: there's no trust boundary between the student's function and the verification code. Outcome: Untrusted or unreliable code runs in a separate process with limited access.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

Whether repeatedly declaring a variable with smaller scope in C# impacts system resource usage (memory/GC) and is beneficial for security compared to declaring variables outside loops.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

Use smaller scopes where it improves correctness (e.g., declare loop counters inside the loop, such as `for(int i = 0; ...)`), and rely on the compiler/JIT for resource efficiency; avoid broader scopes to reduce the chance of stale or invalid variable usage.

PERTAIN_TORootCause

that protocol does not work for daemon threads — it is impossible to create a scope for them that never terminates. Tension: the daemon thread can continue executing after main() ends. Outcome: any scope created in main() will, by definition, be terminated.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

Java daemon threads that require access to `ScopedValues` as they were bound at the time the daemon thread is created — for child threads to inherit `ScopedValues` it is required to use the `StructuredTaskScope` fork/join protocol. Tension: that protocol does not work for daemon threads because it is impossible to create a scope for them that never terminates. Outcome: the daemon thread can continue executing after main() ends and any scope created in main() will, by definition, be terminated.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

After editing the source code, I manually run "Run Java", which recompiles the Java code — editing the source code of a Spring Boot container (created using Docker Compose) from within a DevContainer. Tension: Is there a way to automate this process so that Java is recompiled and the app is reloaded automatically whenever I make changes to the source code? Outcome: hot reload started working correctly.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

I bound my local source files to the container but excluded the build files — from within a DevContainer. Tension: hot reload started working correctly. Outcome: hot reload started working correctly.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

the deletion does not occur — after the tests are completed. Tension: should delete all test containers after the tests are completed, but for some reason the deletion does not occur. Outcome: containers will be reused across JVM processes, meaning that the framework will not remove them after a test run finishes.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

the problem is setting this property on the container: `.withReuse(true)` — testcontainers. Tension: containers will be reused across JVM processes. Outcome: the framework will not remove them after a test run finishes.
