What you can do with the type system depends on the language. It can't replace tests entirely, but it can usually make some more boring tests superfluous, and in more exotic languages the type system can be surprisingly helpful.

by ben0x539 7y ago
Is it a waste to keep the test around until you're ready to switch to a more sophisticated type system?

I figure the main feature of goroutines is that it is considered acceptable, for whatever reason, that a library function spawns helper goroutines without telling you (as long as it reigns them in somehow and they don't leak or anythin

Yeah, that's what I meant with "some aren't", I was mostly listing stuff to support the idea that `interface{}` itself is ubiquitous and not some super-niche edge case that never shows up in real code.

Standard library APIs like context.Context's WithValue/Value, sync's Map/Value/Pool, stuff like the sort or container/heap packages. Some of them are obvious "really wanted generics, but wasn't import

Transportation for people who can't walk for whatever reason, also sometimes you gotta transport stuff too bulky to carry.

I'd like to apologize for the typos in my previous comment that I neglected to notice before the edit window expired.

Ah, that's cool to hear. Which features of cargo versioning am I missing out on then?

It's also nice to not have your CI/deploys depend on third-party sites being up.

"Versioning support" is the wording from the release notes. I don't know why cargo's version resolution logic can't be applied to git dependencies, treating a tag like "v4.2" or "4.2" as a versio

Sure, but they have probably on-prem git then anyway, now they need two on-prem things?

I'd want .munich just to avoid confusion around .muenchen vs .münchen...

128 bits is like, what, ten words chosen randomly from a suitably large dictionary? Is that really prohibitive? Even as random alphanumeric string that doesn't seem beyond muscle memory. Seems like the biggest pain would be to input it

Closed source codebases, presumably.

Yeah, getting to idiomatically capitalize names has been pressure to move them to their own package in the past, which feels awkward.

I'd be legit on board with that, I really just want a stable identifier that's independent of routing information or network or whatever.

Never in my life have I been more concerned about whether a simple text substitution is going to halt than whether I can write it down reasonably concisely without having to resort to a more powerful scripting/programming language.

I don't think anyone is arguing that programming languages need to _keep adding_ features. I don't even think anyone is arguing that Go isn't successful already. The argument is that the programming language should have the g

Maybe your misconception TFA is debunking is that wayland centers your use case. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I think the average user is going to "switch" to wayland by being handed a new laptop that happens to run a recent-enough gnome that uses wayland as the default.

by ben0x539 8y ago
I think the wayland devs aren't focusing on replacing absolutely everybody's X-based workflows, but on providing a reasonably engineered component that integrators can build a desktop environment on top of. In practice, we'll

What's the status for global push-to-talk for voice chat apps like Discord? Does that also fall under hotkeys/"no one working on Wayland today seems to care"?
