Which begs the question: what was the need for OP's comment? How did it bring anything deep or insightful to this thread?

Do you go on every project that announces itself to be written in C/C++/Zig/Fil-C/Java/etc. and make those same complaints? That must be tiring.

They are both denial of services. While there indeed differences between them, they don't seem relevant here. If a third party takedown system is poorly implemented (and it's pretty hard to create a balanced takedown system at sca

Thnaks for heads up, I'll keep this in mind in the future.

And what makes a style good (as objectively as it can get, anyways)? Why would it be the defining factor of what makes art good?

I'll give my two cents here. I work with Dart daily, and it also uses the `await future` syntax. I can cite a number of ergonomic issues: ```dart (await taskA()).doSomething() (await taskB()) + 1 (await taskC()) as int ``` vs. ```rust

In my perspective, an "async" function is already an "maybe-async". The distinction between a a `fn -> void` and `fn -> Future<void>` is that the former executes till its end immediately, whereas the other m

Oh, I'm aware about the benefits of editions. For some reason, I've misread OP's comment.

by fluffybucktsnek 6mo ago
Ah, sorry. I got confused about your comment.

by fluffybucktsnek 6mo ago
Why, given the existence of editions?

Neither have we with Rust.

by fluffybucktsnek 6mo ago
If I'm not mistaken, in the Cloudflare case, both the Rust rewrite and the C++ original version crashed. The primary cause being the bad config file.

Your link was basically a gish-gallop. I explicitly asked to asked link an "ECS" class source, instead you link an index of ECS libraries/engines/frameworks (not data structures, mind you). I picked the first, showed the

So, rather than actually explain what Wikipedia means with terms such as "data organization" and "storage format", you just dismiss the whole thing with an ad hominem. From HN guidelines: > Please don't post shal

Funny, there are no classes named "ECS" in that link. In fact, there are no classes at all, because you didn't actually link a class source. Why push the step of searching for the class towards the reader when you could do i

by fluffybucktsnek 6mo ago
Then, surely, you should be able to find a link to a ECS class's source easily. So where is it? Also, remember, it's not my responsibility to search to prove your arguments. Burden of proof is on the claimant, as it goes.

ADS stands for Abstract Data Structure. ECS ain't even a class. Nothing you're saying now is making sense. Edit: checking now ADS is a too literal of a translation (English isn't my first language). The more appropriate term

No, not every ECS implementation is about data storage (to be more precise, component storage). This architecture's abstraction being better suited for data locality is the main appeal, yes, but many appreciate the mere separation of t

To call Steam one of the strictest IP protection platforms is so laughably innacurate, it's basically wrong. Its DRM is trivial to bypass (specially compared to others), and I have yet to see a case where they banned someone for someth

I think you're missing the point. Piracy, "digital" or real, has always been something that extended beyond borders. They are alleging this is probably due to governments doing said equivocation, in digital piracy case's
