Great idea on the intro. Moved some things around, should be online soon. Thanks for the kind words <3

Yeah, I'm not the biggest fan of the syntax still either. That said, the phrasing of your comment is unkind and its contents don't provide any useful feedback.

Ah, that's a good reference for a more modern "control loop" idea. I agree that there are many similarities with that specification and I need to read in more depth. Thanks! Honestly, there's limited advantage over vanil

Fairly well, although I need to manually format it. VSCode's syntax highlight for rust doesn't do anything fancy for tags and attributes, but literals and block expressions are highlighted correctly.

It seems like Materialize has some interesting approaches in mind: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zWSdkGq1XWk

Thanks for the tip! Should show up shortly.

Heartily agreed re: Materialize, and I've also been nerd-sniped by Adapton, although less literally than incr_dom.

I think there are some very strong parallels between the approach Svelte has taken and what I'm trying out in moxie-dom: https://twitter.com/anplolol/status/1121128610918567936?s=20

Author here. I'm trying out an optional email Q&A format on the post, but will also be keeping an eye out here.

How do you feel about using someone's name?

I think BuddyBuild is an interesting point similar to Fastlane because they were IIRC acquired and shut down the cross-platform side of their operation. I’ve always been curious about the motives for that move, given the apparent organizati

Id say that in Rust’s case, we’ve already seen several painful examples of Hyrum’s law. http://www.hyrumslaw.com/

It does depend on this yes, but the random seed isn’t part of the public API. An RNG API in std would need to pick an algorithm and make that part of its stability guarantees.

(past edit window) This was written with hostility I don’t feel. Sorry Raph!

The API you describe, IIUC, can’t be serviced faithfully on the OSes targeted by std while being backed by real entropy.

How do you accommodate breaking changes to the public interface of std?

I agree that in many cases a much simpler API would suffice, but it strikes me as odd to suggest adding a convenient but insufficient-for-security API to the same standard library that protects HashMap against DoS.

In a Rust implementation of your example, you might not necessarily spawn the two sub-operations as separate tasks. Awaiting them directly in a parent async function (probably using FuturesUnordered, like Promise.all in JS) will cause all o

How’s the OCaml multi core rollout going these days? IIRC shared memory parallelism requires FFI still.

Pattern matching as is in Rust has many notable precedents that IIRC the C# folks considered as prior art, not least of which being F#.

This resonates quite strongly with me, and I would recommend Suikoden 1/2 for the same reasons.
