Had to scroll so down to find Lex's name recommended. But he is just awesome. There is something about Lex. He isn't the most entertaining fluently speaking host, but the guests. Oh my! He has a standard. That's what I love

Exactly my point. I just am happy with iTerm2. On windows it was Windows terminal. On Linux, I was using Konsole (KDE). Just more than enough

I like Nim. WASM is not natively supported by the core team, and the biggest of all. Cyclic Imports. Rest, its a great great language. If these two issues are resolved. I am all in for Nim

This whole discussion and article are useless if you use Svelte. That's it. Stores and local state is THE feature that Svelte makes it easy to use.

Sorry for asking. But why even add new features in a language every year. Why not make it like once in 5 years? And focus on fixing and improving the language and the compiler. Rust is already a huge language. The editions are also 3 years

I understand where you are coming from. Rust and Graphs/Trees is a hard problem. Somehow it goes beyond the way we think about Graphs.

I did the Crafting Interpreters book to learn Rust after I did The Rust book. I faced the same problem as you. Somehow it felt like Arenas went beyond Rust's philosophy and added huge amounts of complexity to the interpreter. Tree trav

exactly. duckduckgo has ads that don't track you. its okay. i see them whenever i search and sometimes maybe click on them to see what exactly is going on. Thing is they don't track and I am okay with it.

Rust is not at all a high-level language in any sense and will not replace the places Kotlin, Go, TypeScript etc occupy. If I wanted to write a super-fast server with some time constraints, I would choose Go without thinking twice. Go is fa

HN is super offtopic at times. Political issues are regularly discussed here despite the fact that there was 0 tech in it. At first I too disliked this, then realized, whatever! I have to filter things for myself.

HN regularly posts non-tech related stuffs. Specially during the last US elections. And don't even ban/flag it if it supports on spectrum.

I wrote 10kLOC last week. Most of the code didn't require much extra thinking, it was mostly a translation of an old TypeScript project to Zig. But measuring compile times with 10kLOC is really not a good argument.

linux on dex? I seriously dont know why they pulled it off? I mean if they had put some effort into the whole thing, laptops would be a thing of the past. Plug your (13gb ram, 512 gb storage & powerful arm cpu) mobile to just about any

better than a software that doesnt do what users want it to do? a lot of things. Why dont you go and try Photopea. It has achieved so much what Gimp couldnt. Yes, its made for business and its closed source. But considering the number of de

Something in Libreoffice makes me avoid it. No matter what, right now the best office solution is from Microsoft. OnlyOffice identified this and worked to clone the thing, because why not clone the best instead of new designs and changes. T

No task is too easy. For easy, we need to jump down to Python. Even C is too easy to learn but difficult to write. Zig is kind of in between Go and Rust in terms of the learning curve. In terms of programming, it is in between C and Rust.

Zig is promising. The UX problem that the author talks about will be solves by Zig. About documentation, its still not 1.0, the language. So, its a work in progress.

Svelte gives us a host of possibilities because of it being compile time. Its the perfect UI language. Think about it. You can write anything in the script part. Lets say you have a Go UI framework. Write Go code inside script tag and use t

Far worse challenges. How about impoverishment? I am still stumbled how Github has managed to make a fool out of Americans. I thought at the very least these first world country people are educated enough to not fall for propaganda

"Ah, its just a name change" I have been hearing this since I was born from the west to impose their culture onto us. And let me tell you whats worse. People like you who think they are doing good supporting it.

My problem is that this is an American company trying to impose their culture to us. There are a lot of developers from China and India whom Github didn't even consider asking. Question is why should "we" who face far worse c

Okay. I was about to write a Svelte compiler in C. I am choosing Zig. Thank you! I first wanted to choose Rust but I never liked that language. I feel that it inhibits thought process. I was making yet another project with Rust. I didn&#x27
