You're correct, but in the interest of: We’ll discuss these topics only briefly here, pushing most details off to later chapters, since the primary goal right now is to give you an idea of what Go looks like... it's probably cle

I understand and sympathize with this point of view, but I have no idea how it would work out practically. Software patents are rightly criticized and I don't think they should be the avenue to recapture investment. But if you also rem

Good stuff! I started playing it zoomed way in on my phone and had no idea the previous guesses and bracketing words were shown. Remembering recent words while thinking of new ones made for a nice "n-back" sort of challenge.

That one only goes back a little more than a year. It also doesn't show vote/comment counts, something I quite like about this one.

Is there evidence that auto firmware issues are a major cause of injury, enough to mandate such a thing? There is already a heavy burden to comply with standards. I recent called our city's public works dept to propose changing the tra

"cargo" doesn't work for me on Windows (it crashes). I can compile things with rustc but the executables crash. I've spent a fair bit of time purging/uninstalling stuff, and rerunning the installers or even picking

I really wish better Windows support was available now. Solid cross-platform support has allowed me to move some Python code to go. My attempts to do the same with Rust have been failures, on multiple occasions, but as recently as their 1.0

It has been a long time since I bought a hardcopy programming book. Alternate forms of documentation and a Safari subscription have replaced these semi-frequent purchases. And although I can't argue against the practicality and economi

I think it boils down to whether the overtime your brain is doing is satisfying. If I’m spending my commute and evenings worrying about work or otherwise stressing out negatively, I’d want to end that. But if my job ends up posing inter

Because of my own ignorance, I'd assumed The Economist Style Guide was another tome mainly full of usage rules. Having actually looked at a bit of it now, it seems much more accessible and useful than that.
