It's totally normal except for C/C++ toolchains on Linux . C/C++ compilers are managed this way on MacOS, Windows, and by most embedded toolchains. Why don't you want your toolchain managed outside your distro? Don'

The places where you'll usually see lifetimes creep in where you may not expect are in closures (say your app is one big struct, you call a library function that takes a callback, you reference &self in the callback and get an erro

You get a lot more compiler help than when you try and put a reference in a class in C++, and if you want to use smart pointers its even better because you'll never have to learn about move and copy constructors or copy and move assign

Something I've discovered is that if you're a small team doing something new, off the shelf products/platforms are almost certainly not optimized to your use case. What looks like absurd scale to one team is a regular Tuesday

I was a longtime JUCE user and won't hold my breath for them to support the web. They skate strictly where the puck was two years ago, not where it's going. I also wouldn't call their Linux support "easy" - it'

While sure, more things could be baked as results, most of the time when you see a panic that's not the case. It's a violation of the callee's invariants that the caller fucked up. Essentially an error means that the caller f

Marginal cost has nothing to do with it - you can buy and sell compute like you could corn and beef at scale. You can't buy and sell software like that. In fact I'm surprised we don't have futures markets for things like comp
