You are wrong about it not proving anything, as it proves that you're intentionally trying to trivialize the conflict into an event of its own, by hiding the context of the prior events caused by other actors playing on the same field

The only people who complain about whataboutism are the ones who want to get away with being hypocrites. Your displeasure won't help you in evading the fact of your double-standard application of the notion of agency. Agency is agency,

It does run `dune build`, but the unit of persistence within Nix is defined as `buildDunePackage`, i.e. the Nix store will only know about the package rather than individual modules and a change in a single module will cause a cascading reb

How would you provide incremental per-module compilation for your Nix derivation of the app?

Why would I give up on shell.nix if flakes API isn't stable yet? I've got my own patterns around default.nix and shell.nix that provide better ergonomics than flakes.

Most of the time these are arithmetic tight loops that require optimisations, and it's easy to extract those into separate compiled cython modules without losing overal cohesion within the same Python ecosystem.

They serve both to a great extent, as long as code owners are willing to refactor their codebases. The changes do actually make code significantly safer and more pleasant to work with. My favourite ones are the concepts and class template a

I get this point and I agree with it, but I also object to your comment on having to use transformers as otherwise it's not worthy. My objection has to do with seemingly different standards and expectations applied to levels of users

But this is the most trivial example of inference. Rust has neither generic implementation of higher kinded data nor global inference for the existing specific cases of it like GAT.
