I think you're looking at this the wrong way around. A human might know the notes of a D Dorian scale, but a computer doesn't. If you've ever selected the key of D major in any music creation software and it's shown you

But it's also not not an increasing rate, there's not enough information to know if the rate is increasing or not.

It's not the Nix/Guile that's expensive, it's situations like: let chromium = pkgs.chromium; in 1 + 1 In a maximally eager language you'd need to wait for the entirety of Chromium to build before you can fi

Focusing on criticising people's actions and being lenient and not judging the person's character is literally centuries old, I don't think you can say it's because of woke.

I've heard a lot of good things about F#, but I've also heard that C# has taken all the best features from F# and now development has slowed down. I don't know how true that is. It's also just some irrational anti Micros

I bounced off OCaml a few years ago because of the state of the tooling, despite it being almost exactly the language I was looking for. I'm really happy with Gleam now, and recommended it over OCaml for most use cases.

It seems like your main gripe is that writing the type annotations slows you down, so I'd be interested to know what you think of languages like OCaml, Elm, Gleam or Roc. These are languages which never (or almost never) require any ty

Yes, SQL is a query language and clickhouse is a database that uses SQL as a query language, but I don't see why that's relevant.

Oh, this would have been great for a project I was working on a while ago! I'll have to keep it in mind for the future. Thanks for sharing

It doesn't really make sense to compare the performance of Ghostty, a terminal emulator, with Toad, a TUI. Also Ghostty is written in Zig, not Rust.

The author is also the creator of the textual Python library for creating TUIs. The performance benefits of Rust don't seem very useful in a tool where you spend a few seconds typing in a prompt and then 90% of your time is spent waiti

Oh, this is the reason the Mullvad app on my Pixel 6a was suddenly able to connect in less than a second where before it would take 5-10 seconds, nice!

I didn't enjoy using JJ for the first day or two until I discovered jjui, now I do probably 95% of my interactions with jj through jjui.

This sounds like the kind of situation where the LSP could suggest the simpler code, I'll see if there's an issue for it already and suggest it if not.

No, because the intermediate language of the previous step is just the target of the next step, and the target can be anything E.g. when JavaScript was designed, they didn't need to know that typescript would be invented to know how Ja

A language can be suitable for writing a compiler, but if there is another language that's 10x faster that's also suitable, then you're losing out on a lot of compilation speed for no reason. Dog-fooding a language by writing

You can think of it like this: SPy is a compiler. SPy is not a compiler for OCaml. SPy is not a compiler for COBOL. SPy is not a compiler for Python.
