I think one reason Discord is so popular and many people don't talk about is the same reason why games like Minecraft, Tibia, GTA San Andreas and many other old games are still popular today. The reason is that they allow users to cust

But how will it deal with nulls? For example, let's imagine I have a user schema. This schema has 3 fields, username, is_admin and admin_level. I can guarantee using changesets that when is_admin is true, admin_level must be non null.

> Each “key type” in a map type is either required or optional. I wonder how that will work with Ecto schemas, or if it will work at all. Ecto Schemas do not specify required/optional keys, the Changesets do. But Changesets only exi

I don't get why he is disappointed at ThePrimeagen and the people that forked the language. I only got to know about the trademark policy draft because of his video, and he was pretty much just reading the document and commenting about

> Elm and Clojure both have something like "if Evan/Rich didn't think you should have that thing you wanted, have you considered that maybe you're wrong? " Might be true for Elm, but how is that the case for Cloj

Imagine you are building a game in Rust where players can write mods. Those mods could be written in JS/TS while the game is written in Rust.

What does this have to do with my initial question? I'm not arguing that the links should've been taken down.

I was not asking if calling someone a pedophile is freedom of speech under the current legislation of the US, but more on the philosophical idea of freedom of speech.

Are you implying that calling someone a pedophile is freedom of speech?

Anti-competitive practices is when the government prevents other companies to join the market. That is not the case here. Do you really expect Apple to make life easier for their competitors? You're free to use Samsung, Galaxy Buds, Wh

I know Rust is a systems programming language, but I've been playing with it for some time writing high-level stuff like REST/GraphQL APIs, websockets and web backends in general. And I have to admit it is a breath of fresh air. N

AFAIK, kafka messages doesn't have "types", and even if they did, you would be relying on an external system, not your type system. If you are not convinced, test it by yourself, create two services and a kafka topic and prod

clojure.spec is not a type system. Still, my point is, just using a typed language won't remove the need for contracts, you would still need to roll up something like Nubank did even if it means using MyPy reflection features. For exam

Types are compile checks, they have nothing to do with contracts, having contracts for messages that will transit over a queue are still useful even if you are using a typed language.
