That is very cool. I kinda tossed out the comment that it can't be bolted on, but maybe I'm wrong? My guess would be it's like a gradual type system in python etc where older D code is the equivalent of unsafe?

The deep well of academic and industry experience that was brought to bear on Rust's design is one of the reasons it's so good in so many areas. Most programming languages start with a developer scratching their own itch and kind

Money isn't the purest form of power, physical force is the purest form of power. Second to that is probably the threat of physical force, then probably the threat of inprisonment, etc. Money is powerful, no doubt though. I agree we co

This test probably helps you improve your false positive rate (accidentally identifying a safe plant as poison ivy), but if you just want to avoid it, the "leaves of three, let it be" heuristic works pretty well. It's conserv

I'm not pretending anything. I think this is a straightforward issue for people on the left: human rights means equal rights. Whether some nutjobs have forgotten that doesn't detract from the basic principle.

There's a little slight of hand you're doing here. Not getting into whether murder is ok, I definitely think there's a difference between a slaveowner and a white person. A white person can't stop being white, and they d

I commented in depth a little farther up in the tree, but the big difference between hypermedia in the web, and hypermedia in an API designed to be consumed by machines is the intelligence and judgement needed. It's a lot of work to ma

So, the way I've usually seen it implemented is that you use a custom media type like `application/vnd.github.commit.json` and then your client is supposed to have some knowledge of the media types it understands. Now that doesn&#

I don't know why left wing groups would celebrate. Other than the conservative category, most of the descriptors he used were inborn traits like being straight, being white, being a man, or immutable attributes like being from a partic

As someone who once bought into the entire HATEOAS thing, and wrote a (somewhat widely used) python library[0] for interacting with HAL+JSON apis, let me be the first to say: Let it die. HATEOAS doesn't solve any problems that we actua

I feel like most of the legalese comes in when the lawyer knows the case law between the cracks of the law as it's written. "So you can say X that way, but there was a case in M vs. G in 1989 that held that it could be interpreted

People are making arguments here about whether it's legacy based on number of projects in C++ or # developers who know C++, and that's just wrong. It's unnecessarily conceding the argument that we can't compare languages

use bazel if you're compiling large C++ or Java projects. If you're using rust, use cargo. Nothing beats a language's own dedicated packaging system (yes, even python's mess is better than bazel+python) but C++ and Java

Right? It is so mind blowing my one-sided. Like hilariously. Usually there is some mitigating factor or some nugget of value provided that someone can make some convoluted argument is worth the price. But with journals, there's nothing

The issue is that these days the reprints and the editors and the staff are all obsolete. The valuable part you're pointing at is peer review, which academics do for free. Then the people who have been made redundant by the information

Yeah, ORMs are ten thousand edge cases, it really lays to use a battle hardened one that has been lovingly maintained and improved constantly for over a decade. Hats off to Mike, most projects that are this age are decrepit and you have kep

I got very into CUE for a bit but... My hot take after all this is that it doesn't actually matter if your config language is Turing complete. Just use your regular programming language for config, I use typescript, it's great. If

Specifically, tenure is to remove the pressure that "you'd better be right" so professors are free to take meandering tangents through the solution space that don't seem like they'll pay off immediately. The failure
