I find fast typing is super important to my programming, not because I need to write walls of text, but because if I get into a flow state, I find it irritating if my thoughts are constrained by my typing speed.

Agreed, I don't believe the science fair will push research, but we need to lay the groundwork to build a society of researchers instead one of office drones, going through JIRA tickets. The comment above yours is a really poor strawma

>these kinds of science fairs are fundamentally about access. Completely agree there, which kind of brings me to a related thought: One thing I do wonder is, if you look at a few hundred years ago a lot of the inventors in math, physics,

I think it's funny how I had this kind of sort of "clear" understanding of Rust ownership from experience, and asking "why" repeatedly puts a few holes in the illusion of my understanding being clear. It's most

But how does that solve the issue with the forked action not using pinned versions itself. You need to recursively fork and modify every version of the GHA and do that to its sub-actions. You'd need something like a lockgile mechanism

>Maybe the non-determinism can be reduced by caching: Just reevaluate the spec if the code actually changes? That would be good anyway to keep the costs reasonable.

I kind of agree on the horrible software bit, but what do you use instead? And can you convince your company to use that, too?

I'm wondering how much of that is bad developer UX and defaults, and how much of that is inherent complexity in the problem space. Like the article outlines, partitions are not that useful for most people. Instead of removing them, how

That is actually slightly different. I guess I misremembered this. Probably a good question is also how quantifiable other bugs than security vulnerabilities are. Security vulnerabilities are probably the only measurable bugs in that sense,

I think the simplicity is maybe why this is a good first experient. I think we can learn from it, more than it being useful on its own. A lot of code will need to be replaced by memory safe code in the future, but a lot of code is not so ea

I wouldn't say many, but not none: https://app.opencve.io/cve/?vendor=gnu&product=coreutils The question is rather how many are logic bugs and how many are memory safety bugs, Rust excludes the latter quite we

Not only that, AI is used for translation a lot nowadays, and the trust in its output seems to be quite high. If you're not a native English speaker and aren't surrounded by many, you might have a much harder time finding such a m

BTW a lot of photoshop effects are implemented just like this. A blur filter on an image is a low-pass-filters, the high frequencies that it blurs out are the details you see. A sharpening filter does the opposite, it boosts the high frequ

That's a problem for almost every language, not just Rust. C++ also compiles to intermediate representations, and then to machine code. Errors happen on that path. Rust just get rid of a lot of errors that could have been in the origin

So I showed my doctor sources from the NHS (I'm not in England), and he agreed to do it, although I had to obviously pay out of pocket. There's also no safety limit for age[1], so there's no reason not to give it to you if yo

The problem is also that the competition might already be there, but you can't force your company to use it.

I think I'm somewhat decent at code reviewing, what I'm seeing currently is though that the PRs become larger and larger. Because AI just rewrites everything, even if you tell it to fix things. This leads to devs pushing more and
