I think swift 6 will be the version where this language finally exists, or will remain a niche for always, until it get replaced by another (hopefully open, hopefully truely cross-platform) tech. Apple was a great place to start the languag

Didn't know this shipped in ios 17. The comment mentions "JSONDecoder", do you know if it's only the decoder, or the encoder too ? Problem with iOS is this constant need for objc compatibility and transparent bridging,

That’s nice, except for swift’s abysmal json encoding / decoding performance.

I also get a bit of the same feeling (only i think i still have the energy to climb that hill). But i feel really worried for the junior devs, that didn’t have the time to build their skills yet. They’re going to be the first batch of jobs

This may not be the best article to state that rust is more pleasant to use than Go… Op shows cryptic code nesting generic container with various static and dynamic behavior related to memory… This is definitely something i don’t miss havin

"Obviously, the embryonic web tried to solve this problem. The original solution was to introduce threading" Are we calling 1970's mainframes "the embryonic web" now ?

i've witnessed the incredible normalization of cocaine use during the last 40 years and it's getting out of control. The first symptom is holywood. Back in the days, a scene with someone taking cocaine was always dark and sordid.

I didn't mean to have the AI write the proof. On the contrary. Humans would be responsible for writing them, to ensure that the code generated by the AI meet certain constraints (safety for example).

People that exercise regularly sweat less for the same amount of effort than when they weren't exercising. I have no idea what the biological / thermodynamics explanation is, but it's a quite basic fact.

Depends on the platform. Android is still super rough (expect debugging custom third-party experimental compiler build scripts). Linux support is i think a bit better. But for now it's still the biggest handicap for the language for su

i recently searched for swift in google trends, and to my surprise it seems that the language is slowly declining in hype. Is this something you've observed around you ? Are people moving away from swift to other techs, and not coming

my feeling with slices is that go wanted to really make programmers mindful of the cost of allocating new space on array operations. By having this weird API on slices, they force you to be explicit on allocating new memory.

Humans don't have bugs. they may have disease, or mental troubles, but we're pretty good at assessing them. Thanks in part to their ability to communicate.
