git reset only works if you're on the branch you want to move, which is why every one of these example flows has you create your new branch, then do the reset, then switch to the new branch, instead of just allowing you to move a branc

None of these seem to preclude a command to make an arbitrary branch point to an arbitrary commit without changing anything else.

The disconnect between git's beautiful internal model of blobs, a tree of commits, and pointers to commits, and the command line interface is so wild. All of these recipes are unintuitive even if you have a firm grasp of git's mod

We put test inputs and outputs in testdata/test_name.in.textpb and testdata/test_name.out.textpb, respectively. Way nicer than defining both your inputs and your desired outputs in go code, even compared to not using protobuf at a

A 70-120 zoom at 90, a 90mm prime, and a 70mm prime cropped in to the same field of view should produce the same perspective projection. Try it sometime – take two photos from the same spot, one at 70 and one at 100 and then crop the 70 to

Instead of passing around the capacity in a struct or as an extra out parameter until you call free, could you instead branch on capacity == 0 in get_foos and set *out_foos to a null pointer? Just because the vector struct never has a null

The verbosity is the point! I want functions that interact with a specific expectation of global state to clearly mark that in their type, and the least complicated way to do that is my proposal. I hope someone can invent something more com

It would prevent callers from not knowing the function depends on a specific runtime. That’s a huge improvement in my opinion. I expect something along the lines of the GhostCell paper could be used to implement this, to be honest, but I th

Rust doesn’t have a way in the type system to tell if a function that isn’t declared async is going to block or not. Their point is that any of those functions could block, and having them block wouldn’t be an obvious breaking change, and s

What I think this comes down to, is that in Rust: It is easy but dangerous to call a non-async function from an async function (since the non-async function could block, forcing all your async code to block on this function). It is hard but

You don’t actually need it to be a reference; the runtime could generate a random int64 and then pass that around as a “runtime id” which could be checked when used. You’re correct that my proposal doesn’t solve every problem with Tokio. I

It needs a bigger context, but the moment someone can feed an entire GitHub repo into this thing and ask it to fix bugs... I think O2 may be the beginning of the end.

The comment you’re responding to is postulating enforcement via higher insurance costs. If insurance gets ~20 reports of someone running a red light, maybe they’ll double the cost to insure that person.

CEL is super cool, it's really great to have a quick and easy way to add a filter parameter to every list API on your server. This project should add an easy way to take a list/iterator of something that implements Serde Serialize

We use the textproto format extensively at work; it's super nice to be able to define tests of your APIs by using .textpb inputs and golden .textpb outputs. We have so many more tests using this method than if we manually called the AP

Surely the use case for this tool is to precompile your image into ASCII and then just output that on every shell start up, right? There’s no reason to convert the image every time.

In my opinion all maps of single airplane routes should be shown with a two-point equidistant projection. This clearly shows the straight line between the start and end as the shortest direction, and minimizes distortion along that line. Ad
