it's unfortunate that the webpage is so misleading. for example, about email, it says: " Google and its partners have access to all your information and they can collect data, they can display ads inside your inbox, and the conten

it is really frustrating to read infinite variations of the comment "javascript development is too complicated", "it is much simpler in other languages" etc. yes, it is complicated. the problem is, there are certain cons

nobody thinks that this behavior is good. the problem is, this is how it was at the beginning, and javascript will not break backwards compatibility. so we have to live with it (or use a third-party sort-function, like "lodash.sortBy&q

unfortunately it's not possible to change the behavior because of backward compatibility. maybe we could have a `sort2()` method that works differently.

i'm glad it worked for the author, and i am sure you can achieve better performance with Rust than with NodeJS, but i'd like to discuss some of the mentioned advantages: in general, typescript is optimized for cooperating with oth

in theory, yes. the problem is, how can chrome+firefox persuade microsoft, apple, debian and redhat to add it? and how long will that take? maybe some of them don't want it at all. with the current approach they can offer this improvem

i was planning to try out Nix on MacOS, because i always wanted to try out Nix and i use MacOS, but then Catalina happened,a and suddenly there were problems with Nix on Catalina. last time i checked the install-instructions on Catalina, yo

so, what makes up the 19MB difference? (i assume it's not caused by the nix one being MUCH older :-) couldn't you simply do a multi-stage docker-image (in the not-nix situation),where you just copy over the go binary into the fina

I don't think your description of Elixir and Phoenix is correct: Elixir is a language targeting the erlang virtual-machine. it does not seem clojure-inspired. Phoenix is a web development framework written in Elixir.

it probably should be mentioned that the first github issue you linked is about signal loosing SMS-messages, not signal-messages. so for the case mentioned by the parent (" getting friends to adopt it") it is not really relevant.

you can use NixOS on MacOS. i was planning to try it out (currently i use homebrew), but with Catalina it seems things are somewhat complicated for nixos+macos. my understanding is that NixOS wants to live in "/nix", and Cata

oh, i see what you mean. yes, i did somehow miss the "You can't build everything in safe Rust - certain things _require_ the use of unsafe." part of the argument. i did talk about it in my other comment here: https:/&#x

exactly this. i understand that it's necessary to have raw/unsafe/whatever-is-the-name code when you interact with the outside world, or to implement building blocks of the language. that's not my problem. my problem is

sorry, what does "to optimize the balance of safety and speed with as few compromises as possible" mean? it's possible to cover many-many situations with that description.

11 uses of "unsafe". (this is not a critique of this specific library, it's more a look at the rust ecosystem as a whole) i keep looking at Rust, but at the end it seems it is not a language for me. Rust developers just seem

title is wrong, the spec is not ignored. spec says: " When an element’s autofill field name is "off", the user agent should not remember the control’s data, and should not offer past values to the user. " please note tha
