There are 3 Nim frameworks in the plaintext benchmark. Httpbeast, Jester and Prologue.

Most of these benchmarks are insanely optimized. The code is rarely idiomatic. There's also a few frameworks in there that just wraps C libraries to get good scores. I wouldn't use TechEmpower as a reliable source for checking fra

It's an old website. I got in last time I tried about two years ago. If I remember correctly you see a message from the person who got in before you, and then you write a message for the next one in line.

I wonder why SWC is so far behind the rest in terms of minified size. Kinda makes me not want to use it to be honest. Maybe there's some low hanging problems to tackle to make it better?

> It does offer nice assurances like entirely avoiding race conditions by default (when using safe Rust). Doesn't it "just" prevent data races? I don't think it prevents all race conditions.

Before taxes. Where I live I pay roughly 34% tax on my income.

I guess that's true. I didn't really consider monthly fees for a course from one person. But then I would say that he/she probably didn't have 400 students in total, but instead 400 subscribed students at all times. Unle

In this case it was Sweden. Now, you could argue that the max salary for a developer is higher, but only if you get into a good company. Most devs get stuck at around $4k to $5.5k per month from what I know.

May I ask how you're able to make a living for several years with only 400 students? Do you sell each course for like $500 or more?

Holy cr*p, that website consumes 30% CPU in Chrome for me. Scrolling lags like hell. Please revoke their web dev license.

Maybe I'm missing something, but it appears that the only difference between this and other static site generators is that you can edit stuff in the browser, right? I usually just edit my pages in VS Code, or any other markdown editor.

Thanks for pointing that out. I was a bit surprised about the low acceptance rate they had.

That's the old Vue 2 repository, which has been pretty inactive for a while due to the full rewrite of Vue. Vue 3 (70.62% acceptance): https://merge-chance.info/target?repo=vuejs/vue-next Svelte (57.23% acceptance

We are though. One of the current shift that is happening is that frameworks are moving away from using Webpack and so on during development. Vue now has Vite, Svelte is moving to Snowpack, etc. This can speed up development iteration time

That's super cool! I can see myself using this to add dynamic content more easily on server side rendered websites.

I always look for a Twitter account or something to send my gratitude to. It feels like a more natural place to do it than in an issue. The only downside is that a tweet only goes to one person, while if you open an issue, all contributors

Maybe that's true. I don't know how complex these things are, or if they will be affected by future changes in the language, but it feels weird to say that a critical piece of software is complete. I wonder if many new libraries w

I was under the impression that it's based on Smol, but maybe I'm wrong.

Woah, I didn't know about that. Does this mean Rust only has one maintained runtime now? Namely Tokio.

C#/.NET has all of this already. You don't have to import anything else to use async/await.

It feels like it's a self-fulfilling spiral of bad music. The more I listen to the recommended music, the more of the same crap keeps getting recommended to me. Even if I skip them. I remember that Spotify actually had pretty good reco

I wouldn't say so, since it's a general purpose framework. In most languages you use a framework to build GUI applications. Working with the DOM in pure JS is pretty verbose.

Neither does the Mac Mini, what's your point? If you're building your own desktop PC, then you're clearly not comparing it to a laptop. On top of that, Apple charges $300 (in Sweden) for every 8GB of RAM, and $300 for every 5

I love dark mode on websites and software, but after about two days of using it on Github I had to revert back to light mode. I was developing a headache trying to read their 14px gray text. There's also too many gray lines everywhere.

I don't think they're updated by Mozilla, at least not the ones related to Rust.

I think using any client-side WASM framework for a public website is a pretty bad idea right now. I wouldn't even use Blazor from Microsoft, which has a lot more funding than Yew.

I don't think it's necessarily that people affiliate themselves with a specific team, like some do with xBox vs Playstation for example. Team names have been more popular lately due to the comeback of AMD, where a lot of people we

Wasn't the problem that they did it on devices which were out of warranty and could not even get their batteries exchanged (at least not for a reasonable price)? Which in turn resulted in permanently degraded performance on otherwise u
