Oops I didn't explain clearly. Take this code: pub fn abc() -> usize { #[allow(deprecated)] "abc".len() } I want it to complain about the "allow", because there was never any deprecated warni

Zig seems to behave similarly. This compiles: export fn x() i32 { var a: i32 = 1; // okay a = 2; return a; } This does not: export fn x() i32 { var a: i32 = 1; // unused variable

His suggestion is even counterproductive in a way, because it makes it more likely people will accidentally commit unused vars they have silenced. I _want_ the compiler to help me find unused things... just not yet. Wait until my pre-commit

I tried Zig recently but I found the unsilenceable lints to be a huge productivity killer. I actually posted a link to the GitHub issue this morning. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32751317 This makes a normal workflo

If you want to talk about bitcoin, maybe link something more substantive than "price go up" or "price go down"

I think the preferred build system is Vite. Assuming you're looking at https://www.solidjs.com/guides/getting-started , they mention Vite first, and under that is manual setup for webpack/rollup/etc if yo

Those prices are derived from a site called NiceHash that tries to commodify hashpower. Most people who want to monetize their mining hardware, just... use it to mine, not lease it to a reseller. So both the supply and demand are low. It&#x

At a minimum I would group PoW and PoS coins separately, as the incentives for each category are quite different. This site acknowledges that in a way with separate lists at the top for "nodes" and "validators", but unde

I feel like people glamorize architecture in general. Sure the Empire State Building was probably fun to design, but 99.9% of architects are just designing bland office buildings or long hallways of apartment boxes. On average it's pro

If I write some ugly code to get prod back online ASAP, did I immediately become a bad person? Or do I only become a bad person after some number of weeks passes and I haven't refactored it to clean it up yet?

You've unlocked a memory. Probably 10-15 years ago, I tried a bunch of eye tracking apps and found one that somehow worked really well with my cheap USB webcam. I'm sure it needed to be calibrated first. It was classic developer s

This argument is almost never useful. Times change. People survived hundreds of years ago without electricity or running water, so it should be perfectly fine if the government shuts off utilities for protestors, right?

Not sure about this one. You can get both kinds of phones for $0 with a monthly payment.

I remember the headlines when a bank refused to pay a judgement and the sheriff showed up later to foreclose on a local branch. That might be the next move here. https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2011/06

The moon has a mass of 7×10^22 kg. How will wildlife on earth be affected if we mine a billionth of a billionth of a percent of its mass from the side that is never visible?

As a mediocre developer, I'll gladly endorse this view.

A major benefit of Rust/Go/Zig is control over data layout. If your language doesn't have value types, the CPU spends a lot of time pointer chasing and trashes the cache. In the worst case a cache miss could have the CPU sitt

I don't follow this stuff very closely - is there any open-source model for text generation that outclasses GPT-3? Stable Diffusion has been released for barely a week and already seems like the clear winner. It doesn't seem like

To be fair, it started out as a wiki, and they just never changed the name. There's no CSS here but you can clearly see the MediaWiki template: https://web.archive.org/web/20090422103636/http://www.w
