Painfully realistic satire, but the end lays it on a bit too thick.

Somewhere in between. There actually is a level of demand for languages which are annoying to use; whether this is annoying syntax or annoying semantics isn't much of a distinction, they dovetail. But more than that, there's deman

I tried to shoot myself in the foot but Github broke the gun and it hit a firing range target instead, how did this reach production?

Gleam is nothing like Erlang or Elixir (its copying of Rust is so slavish it even has a toml file driven build system) and Erlang and Elixir are not split (the only place where they even sorta are is rebar vs. mix). I don't particularl

Well, Bitwarden is actually completely open source. So I can use the server code. It's pretty great!

I avoided glasses for years because no matter what, wearing them would give me horrible headaches. Then one day I went to a higher end optician, spent $1000, and have been comfortably using glasses since. So maybe more selling, less researc

That's LaTeX syntax for opening and closing quotes. Though their rendered paper doesn't render them that way for some reason!

I like a good ejabberd fork! edit: oh, this isn't an ejabberd fork. Why didn't they just fork ejabberd like normal people? Seriously, _rust_?

I don't care too much about revenues and expenses exactly, but about the sustainability of their capital structure. "Big tranches of convertible debt within a couple years of converting" does sound like a bad sign.
136.
by juped 2y ago
Sad and pathetic if true. How unsustainable is their capital structure, exactly? Worse than I naively suspected, I suppose?

I kind of have a mental block around Tailscale even though it would be useful in some cases for me, because the name "Tailscale" instantly trips all my snake oil trauma responses. Can't they call it "Weyergourd" or

Elixir is all in on being an OTP language, and is a friend, not competitor, to Erlang (go ahead, call one from the other freely, the only friction is that module name atoms look a little weird in the other language). Gleam is not entirely f

Wow, never autopush all your tags. What a terrible idea! Once a tag escapes into the wild, it's so hard to ever get rid of it. Pushing a tag should require two people turning keys simultaneously or something, honestly. zdiff3 is also N

Because Git is distributed, there's no "a branch" foo or whatever; that's a very pointedly centralized-logic, non-DVCS way to treat Git. If Alice has a head named "foo", Bob can fetch Alice as a remote and get

It's slow to call out to external linters. But it's even slower to use LSP (which rustrover saves me from), it's really not a huge deal in practice for me.
144.
by juped 2y ago
Rustrover can do this, although unfortunately it requires cargo check/clippy turned on rather than being native (still faster than LSP, at least). https://www.jetbrains.com/help/rust/rust-external-linters.ht..

None. And lifetime elision and other forms of pretending to beginners that they don't exist are why so many people have trouble with Rust.

I'm also desperate to stop Rust by any means, but I don't think you're correct; I think the sticking point for language adoption is the presence or absence of a big npm clone.
