Why can't you access it from any of the tv boxes (ie Apple TV or any other) and just use the TV itself as one big screen, a bunch of pixels and nothing else?

Rust has: - serde; this beats both cpp and Python in terms of not spending a second of dev time on implementing serialisation deserialisation unless you're doing something funky. I would argue that this is one of the cases where it&#x2

There's just less need for cython these days. If you're writing a compiled extension, there's pybind11 or, better yet, pyo3, where you can also get access to internals of polars and other libraries. In numeric Python, and esp

Ha, I'm not the only one. Barely ever visit the links unless that's something I'm actually personally interested in, by coincidence. Mostly come here for the comments.

In this case, it means your actual error will be packed and boxed someplace behind a smart pointer, its type will be lost (so you wouldn't be able to match on its specific variants downstream might you want to) but it will be still abl

That's called 'sum types' and that's what Go lacks. See some bikeshedding and ongoing discussion [here]( https://github.com/golang/go/issues/57644 ).

And why should nobody ever do that?

There's also helper crates like eyre simplifying the process of adding context even further (at the cost of type erasure): foo().context("oh no")?

YAML is one of the most ambiguous formats out there, and definitely an overkill for what's needed to describe metadata. JSON - not the most convenient to use for human beings, too much quoting, not too git friendly because of disallowe

"goodResult | barError | bazError" method just don't scale; eventually, especially if using third-party libraries, you may end up with dozens of not hundreds of error types this way. The way Rust does it with its try operator

You absolutely can forbid unsafe code (within a scope of a particular codebases) and some projects happily do it. "The use is necessary" = absolutely not. Lots (most) of projects wouldn't ever need to dip into unsafe code. An
