It's a common problem with many languages. If you speak gibberish fake Chinese at chatgpt and ask it to translate, it'll happily say you're saying coherent things.

Sounds like things are converging more or less where I thought they would: "websites" turning into live applications, interfacing with the native UI, frameworks, etc. using a standardized API. Mainframes maybe weren't the wo

This is an incredible piece of lore, thank you for sharing!

Eh let's not be dramatic, if you're already using async runtimes of some sort it's not that much of an upset to switch.

XUL felt magical when it came out. Was kind of sad when it got sunset or whatever happened to it. Felt like it could have been something great.

Eh yeah the Levayen Satanist book exists but I thought they were referring to a religious book from the archaic Bible ages. That'd be much more interesting to read!

My first thought before looking was "meh it's probably not that bad" but yeah, it's pretty sad. Alas, that is nature.

There's a book of Satan?

I chose the only bank that'd allow me to accept a paycheck in a reasonable amount of time after moving across the planet, yes.

My bank requires it, for better or for worse. Any bank transfers are MFAd via the app, for example. It's the only bank that allows non-citizens in Germany that has English correspondence and wouldn't have taken months in Bureaucra

Not trying to shill LLMs but learning German is way easier with them. I've ditched Google translate for everything but simple word translations.

Building an operating system currently. This isn't just Xbox, we still have to do this in bootloaders.

Nice, way clearer in my opinion. Thanks!

They have search results from Yandex among others, yes, and Yandex isn't really a Russian company anymore.

> Rust, from what I've heard, has a similar abstraction level as TypeScript, perhaps even closer to Haskell but that's good, I could do with a bit more help from the compiler. But it requires me to manage memory and lifetimes,

The choice for log graphs here probably wasn't necessary and seems to have hurt more than it helped. Despite looking relatively similar, memcached performed 3x faster than redis on some benchmarks whilst appearing only slightly above a

Performance, safety and IO critical code must care, because the page size affects TLB caching and is the finest granularity for security flags such as read-only, no execute, etc. which are critical for e.g. guard pages. If your code that cr

These graphs are gorgeous, visually and otherwise. Really well done display of information.

This isn't how government or the economy work! Like... at all! Where did our basic econ literacy go? I'm getting exhausted from blatantly uninformed "hot takes" like this comment and the GGP somehow becoming the majority

This comment is justly flatly incorrect. You don't need Tokio at all to write an async library. Nor do you need send sync. Not sure what other crap you are speaking of, either. Sync APIs can be spawned in worker threads as futures, too

When tabloids circumvent due process to commit slander and get away with it there should be penalties, yes.

This isn't a memory bug.

I mean... yeah? Rust explicitly doesn't allow longjmp or related machinery, at least not in any way that works well with the Rust VM. And for good reason. That's been a wart and a hack since the day it was created. I'd say th

I remember their site inexplicably not letting me download anything despite being logged in. I think it wasn't able to retain my session for some reason, though it's been a while (I looked around 2023). I do remember trying differ

That's good to know, thanks! And yeah, STMCube's quick pin config and clock config tools alone are what keep me coming back. I don't use any of the C generation or code editing/compiling stuff (I write all of my firmware

I never have these issues. Is the postgres driver a C wrapper? that's where things tend to fall apart.

Oh yeah definitely.

Microchip in particular is very bad at developer experience and tooling. The only vendor I actually enjoy working with to any degree is ST, and only design boards using their uC's for that reason. I've heard good things about Nord
