Basically. Cargo is so good that the only things I could possibly wish for are specifying binary dependencies and easier use of Cargo as a library (and maybe a more robust `patch` section, but there's always `paths` in .cargo/conf

Seems reasonable. If I put on my ad-hoc explanation hat, since geoosmin is produced when Streptomyces die, tasting it in water might indicate that the ecosystem is under stress. Conversely, smelling it in the air suggests that the soil ecol

Maybe I’m just passive or don’t frequently declare constants, but I never need it. As a vim user, though, I love prophylactically mashing the caps lock esc.

Why not just remap escape to caps lock? The real issue is the trash keyboards that break themselves.

Yep. With all of the PL research that has gone into Zig, Nim, Rust, and others, one would really hope that greenfield projects would be written in not-C. Of course, when does anyone really get the luxury of writing something completely from

To add to the list, my favorites are: * cargo-expand [0]: dumps the expansion of troublesome macros * cargo-bloat [1]: explains why a package is so huge * ripgrep [2]: RIP grep * llvm-tools-preview (via [3]): the LLVM tools with which Rust

Incredibly cool system! I'm glad to see zkSNARKS finally being used as a smart contract primitive. Two questions for you: 1. How does performance look for private ERC20-type contracts? zkSNARKS can be rather heavy to compute, so would

Neat! It'd be nice to see a comparison of cost+replication factor of C:// versus, say, Filecoin which is designed specifically for storage and allows tweaking replication factor. Or maybe even Ethereum using logs instead of s

You get a bit of safety because Wasm programs have statically validated function calls and operate only within linear memory. If there are no bugs in the stdlib or the bytecode compiler, then the host is still sandboxed from the module even

It'd be nice to see data for vegetables, too. For instance, broccoli is relatively high in protein (and definitely micronutrients), but is rather cost ineffective. It'd also be fun to see how absurdly inefficient lettuce is. Also,
