Probably for the same reason that most new language these days cannot bring themselves to just use "function" and instead have "fn", "fun", "func", etc. It's a headlong pursuit of conciseness for

I think they're referring to bundling Bun into another program to use Bun as a JS runtime: https://github.com/oven-sh/bun/issues/12017

Not OP but while I don't seek "punishment", I do seek accountability. I know that might seem like a flowery synonym at best, or an amorphous piece of jargon at worst, but if we are to treat online spaces as public forums, we

Isn't that not necessarily out of the ordinary though? What if there's a cosmic ray that change's the value to something not expected by the exhaustive switch? Or more likely, what if an update to a dynamic library adds anoth

That's because you have incorrectly inferred from our statements saying that Core should get the data, or rather that the data should be publicly archived, as us saying that Core has a right to the data. You are again constructing a

by Defletter 11mo ago
You keep repeating that Core has no rights to that data, which is true, but it's a refutation to an argument no-one in this thread has made. What we're saying is that Rebble has no rights to that data either. Rebble's theft

This is a bit of a what-if, but I had a Pebble watch back then and was considering trying to make an app for it. The idea that, if I had succeeded and published the app, that Rebble would be claiming ownership over my binary and threateni

Because of the clear regressive biases evident in your comments: not once in your little diatribe nor the tedious back and forths since then have you mentioned general paid time off, bereavement leave, or even paternity leave. I don't

Why would you assume that someone who specifically mentioned "self-determination, social equity, liberty, and nonaggression" was advocating for "keeping women chained to their desks and away from children" through a

Ohhh, you thought our objection to your regressive nonsense was an objection to parental leave? That's... no.

This would do rounds on TruthSocial or X, The Everything App. Might I suggest moving this conversation over there?

Once either of you present an argument worthy of respect within a civil and democratic society, I will respond in kind. Until then, statements like "the glorification of every other sexual special interest except the productive one&qu

> My personal take is that if I need more abstraction than Zig, I need something with managed memory--not Rust or C++ You may potentially like D. Its tooling leaves much to be desired but the language itself is pretty interesting.

The level of knee-jerk reaction to anything Rust into traditionally C projects borders on the pathological. That email is about as polite as it gets without being coddling.

Hmmm, it still has a pretty extensive default list of permitted npm packages, which wouldn't necessarily be a problem if there were a way to disable it, but I can't seem to find it.

How does Bun avoid this? Or is it more that Bun provides things that you'd otherwise need a dependency for (eg: websockets)?

Presumably, a reset is resetting to a browser's defaults, whereas a normaliser is about establishing a cross-browser default. I haven't done much web-dev in recent years, but I vividly remember the same page looking different in d

Really wish people would just bite the bullet and do configuration as code instead of trying to make all these config petlangs.

Can't speak for everyone, but I think a substantial part of the shift from Maven to Gradle was the ability to write build scripts: you didn't need to write a plugin. I'm hoping that Maven (and Gradle) can take advantage of JE

While I'm unsure about the efficacy of LLMs, I do yearn for language tooling that lets you 'Bring Your Own Syntax'. I'm someone who prefers TypeScript, Java, and Zig's syntax and genuinely, genuinely struggles wit

Even though I understand why you prefer that, I feel like you're painting too rosy of an image. To quote Tom Delalande: "There are some projects where if it was 10% harder to write the code, the project would fail." I belie
