I am just watching the Game of Throne series right now, so this comment sounds funnier than it should to me :D. The fight for the Iron Throne, lots of self-proclaimed kings trying to take it... C is like King Joffrey, Rust is maybe Robb Sta

Given your example, I am convinced you've never written any Rust. Of course it does stop you doing shit like that. But in this example, even Java does it properly, since the constructor runs to completion before any Object is accessibl

Exactly, this thread is full of ignorant comments. I was talking about a certain class of race conditions that can be completely prevented in some languages, like Rust (through its aliasing rules that just make it impossible to mutate thing

Bugs like these are pervasive in languages like Java that give no protection against even the most basic race condition causes. It’s nearly impossible to write reliable concurrent code. Freya only helps if you actually use it to test everyt

Completely disagree. I work in the field and in my experience people use lots of SCIM servers, many of which home-grown since it’s not that hard to implement only the bits of the specs you need. And interoperability is quite good, better th

Pretty much and I think this is the most normal thing!? In fact most of what the author describes is exactly the same for me. Do you guys just remember everything clearly as you need it?? I am inclined to believe that if you can do that you

The RFC is very clear about how extensions are supposed to be registered with IANA, which is always how RFC extensions in general work. You cannot have interoperability without a central registry. https://datatracker.ietf.org

When it comes to security, you are probably better off comparing things case insensitive. Like email providers also tend to do. It would be too easy to send a message to Joe@acme.org when you meant joe@acme.org otherwise, which ca be very p

Have you tried the Jetbrains agent, I think it’s called Jennie? I am trying it right now and it seems decent enough but I haven’t tried Cursor as I don’t really like vs code.

Housing in Australia was not affordable at all 11 years ago! Perhaps 20 years ago yeah… but I mean, compared to almost anywhere else, salaries for the average folk are great even when you compensate for that. Only the top tier is underpaid

To add to that: people like some messed up things, or truly inaccessible things. And while you can try to focus on "some good stuff" that you like, you can't really pick the things you like the most! If you could, wouldn'

You joke, but with the right prompt, I am almost certain that an LLM would've written a better spec than MCP. Like others said, there are many protocols that can be used as inspiration for what MCP tries to achieve, so LLMs should &quo

This sentence is a good example where the native speaker's version is worse (in this case because it's just non-sense, as the parent commenter already pointed out).
