Finally some new ideas for AOT compiled languages that don't devolve to "what if we just have memory bugs some of the time?"

I don't know how they work, how do they work?

But Rust macros also do this, the procedural macros operate on the AST of the macro https://doc.rust-lang.org/reference/procedural-macros.html

Just like when it embraced the XMPP chats?

Or you just read a scientific paper. It's called a review and it goes over several studies and uses statistics to determine probability of claims. For example, https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8227

You really don't, I worked on a Rust project: https://github.com/ujh/iomrascalai it doesn't need unsafe code despite being performance-optimized
194.
by iopq 3y ago
If you don't use `unsafe` then it guarantees it barring compiler mistakes. The compiler has had issues with memory safety before, they were found, and they were fixed. There might be some left lurking, but they are extremely unlikely s
195.
by iopq 3y ago
Sure, but upon review it was found some of the code was using unsafe without reason, and people submitted pull requests which made the code better. It's better because you are sure it doesn't have a memory unsafety bug, even if th

You can't grep for it, but you can grep `unsafe`

Came to say this, in the case of sane things* Nix works perfectly * pip is not guaranteed to get you to a working state even if you run the same commands, so don't even think about it
198.
by iopq 3y ago
Yes, so if we get away from the elevator pitch, Rust provided: * Cargo for managing dependencies and a sensible module system * Option/Result based error handling without using null * Zero (runtime) cost abstractions like iterators and

When Rust was able to get rid of a class of memory bugs, undefined behavior, concurrency bugs without a garbage collector, it achieved a breakthrough. You can now write JS or Java VM in a language that doesn't have buffer overflows, da

Why is this flagged? It might be the most important thing to happen all year

Only if the issues they raise are justified and the fault of my company, then I could consider fixing them and wouldn't kill the messenger

But the CEO works for the owner, who could be a billionaire At the time I worked for intuit, it was Brad Smith, but you could make the case we were BOTH really working for Scott Cook, who IS a billionaire

When I say I'm lazy, I mean I don't want to do it Nobody accused me of being too lazy to play games

I've been avoiding it because I'm lazy, not because I think it's a bad idea

I suggested for him to parse /proc in that issue tracker, but he kind of stopped reading my suggestions

Unix being stringly-typed is a huge problem. For example, I found a flatpak of a system monitor and thought it was portable. Turns out, it parses `ps` output directly, but it's not compatible with BusyBox `ps` output https:/&#x2F

Why? If I choose to eat a steak with some veggies on the side, where's the egg in that? Where are the beans? Yesterday I had a pizza. It had no egg or beans on it, just bacon, cheese, pizza crust, tomato, etc.
