On any Go production projects I worked on or near, the incremental compile time was slower than C++ and Rust. A full build was definitely much faster, but not as useful. Especially when using a build system with shared networked caching (

For what is worth, google takeout can export in 50GB tgz. Downloading the takeout files is miserable through, the download link is only valid when being downloaded via human interaction in a web browser. There is a silly trick. Start the do

Immich is genuinely good. I run it on a credit sized intel N100 board with a few spinning disks. There was nothing to do, it all just worked right away. Everything is fast and smooth. The AI indexing and search just work™ and it is faster t

A quality faucet gives you fine control with a single handle. The difference with low quality stuff is striking. The price too.

A panic in Rust is the same as an exception in C++. You can catch it all the same. https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/panic/index.html An uncaught exception in C++ or an uncaught panic in Rust terminates the program. T

panic is the exceptional event. It so happens that rust doesn't print a stacktrace in release unless configured to do so. Similarly, capturing a stack trace in a error type (within a Result for example) is perfectly possible. But this

This thread warms my heart. Rust has set a new baseline that many and myself now take for granted. We are now discussing what can be done to improve code correctness beyond memory and thread safety. I am excited for what is to come.

The laws of physics means that the longer the path for your network packet, the higher the latency. One way latency on the Internet across fiber is about 4μs to 5μs per kilometer in my experience. For example, SF to Paris is ~40ms one way (
