What’s India’s policy for American tech immigrants? Do they have the equivalent of an H1B? Is it easier to become a resident with fewer strings attached after a fewer number of years?

Every conversation on nogil needs to include some dialogue about how it works and what types of changes it requires, both to code and the mental model of the code. I can’t really further consider this or get excited about it unless I unders

The way to do this in Rust is to use “unsafe.” It essentially means “trust the programmer that this pointer is live.” I don’t think there is a way around this. You’re dealing with a high-level runtime condition. There are no tractable ways

Seems like a large part of the complexity is enabling the creation and use of reusable UI components that work in a variety of UI hierarchies and modify a variety of backend models (or app states), in a type-safe way. Is that right or are

Where was it claimed or implied that criticism of this project isn’t relevant? My comment points out the flaws in the presumption that independently written software needs an excuse to exist.

Package dependency resolution is fundamentally impossible to do efficiently and often broken (for legacy reasons) in specific implementations. Programmers are terrible at semantic versioning. Community package repositories are security nigh

Database drivers are commoditized on all major language runtimes. I don’t think this is a reason for it not being a web app.

Well you implied that laws against theft are not just. I disagree but disagreement is fine. Just, in what general area of the world do you live? I’m in Louisiana by the way.

So is it your position that we should legalize theft until poverty is solved? In what area of the world do you live?

The logic is that you talk about dozens of things around your phone per day yet you never see an ad targeted at you, you only notice it on the rare occasion it does happen. So either Apple is deciding to only target you with ads very rarely

Just send a comment in reply to the comment that caused the punishment. Disable replies, make it time-limited (1 week to 1 year in duration).

Thank you. As a humble request please notify me if I am downranked as punishment in the future. It is dehumanizing and humiliating to downrank without notifying me.

What does it prove?

Good faith is not assumed here. Everything I post is downranked for no reason nor warning. Downranking is an expression of the presumption of bad faith.

The idea of being in the care of malicious caregivers is horrific. I can imagine it skews your worldview in a pessimistic direction. I’m sorry to hear that life was unfair to you. I’m glad to hear that you’re able to approach it with some h
