Whoa, after about 7 years of writing Rust, I only now learned that Rust's strings can be extended with `+=`. In any case, a Rust string is inherently a growable data structure. It has a capacity and a size. If the size exceeds the capa

You're right, and I use Kotlin for all new projects. However, when working with legacy code and with teams that aren't familiar with Kotlin, introducing a newer Java version is much easier than introducing an entirely new language

It's not a surprise if you look at the Ibuprofen packaging used in US supermarkets... There's a picture in the article of such a supermarket aisle. You can buy a 750- or even 1000-pack for a few dollars. WTF, how is it a good idea
