Yes, I know, and all those crates trying to wrap unsafe C libs are really not free - I've tried. Maybe just dig into some sources and see what macros are expanded to to see the overhead.

sometimes it takes 100x more without any apparent reason - it's probably because of memory or something, what takes minute to compile on my MBA, sometimes never finishes on raspi3 (swap is off) I currently compile on raspi4 and scp the

For me, rust is still love & hate, even after 1 year of half-time (most of the free time I have) hacking. It's a wonderful language but there are still some PITAs. For example you can't initialize some const x: SomeStruct with

javascript/typescript is great if you don't know what you're going to eventually come up with but you need to iterate fast and keep it high-level with lots of TODOs and uncertainties which would otherwise have been hard to ty

I like a lot of things in python, but unfortunately, everytime I happen to use anything which uses python, there's a good chance it won't work on my environment. And so I'm very surprised how python can be so successful if it

Pascal has one great benefit, compiler is fast as hell - so fast that it could (incrementally) compile & launch your application in 2-3 seconds on Intel Celeron 333mhz. Or at least this was true for Delphi, not sure about Lazarus

Web & JavaScript is really great platform for quick prototyping and when you're doing UIs, it's all about being able to iterate fast. It might change a bit with Flutter & SwiftUI but I still find web & CSS to be a bett

It's a pity the Proxy is not supported mobx is really much nicer approach to state management and usually, apps using mobx are much faster - simply because implementing shouldComponentUpdate properly is hard

I'm bit worried about what will happen with private fields. One the really cool things about javascript was that there was always some way to monkey-patch everything.

pattern matching in dynamically typed language would be very very limited and don't forget that you also have very little time to parse and run the app (time to interactive) it really doesnt make much sense - just compile to js if you

language itself is never a problem, you can learn fortran too, but you'd be on your own with most of the tasks

Yeah, that's one of the 2 major concerns I have with flutter: - new lang, platform, libs, tools, everything, it's like let's just dump 20ys of what we already have (either javascript or java/kotlin) - excessive nesting (

The success of javascript is hugely because of no dependency-hell (not being able to upgrade some lib to a new version, because it would conflict with some other lib which requires it in its current version and you can't have both of t

yeah, but stateful hot-reload is also possible with react and other frameworks so this is hardly a thing against javascript.

time will tell but I have really hard time understanding why they couldn't just use any already established platform (tools, libs, tutorials, books, common knowledge, stackoverflow, ...) +google is famous for killing its projects and t

the point of this project is not to "turn this webapp into a cross-platform gui app" (electron is really good at this and I think this is where we agree) it's more like: - let me make a cross-platform gui app really quickly (

wey was inspiration for this - but mind this was done in one day and the intent was more about showing what's possible with node-webrender :-)

webrender is already enabled in firefox nightly so I wouldn't say it's just for toy pages also, it's more like skia, a low-level "drawing" thing, on which gecko/servo (engines) depend on - and webkit/blink

I've done delphi in the past but I haven't heard about it for a while. How big is the community nowadays? What about libs? Package manager? Dependency-hell? Unit-testing frameworks and other toolings? How easy is it to stop the wh
