I haven't written Java since like java 5, but I believe java 8 has syntax for this as well: `usersList.stream().forEach(someSet::add)`

This article casually throws around definitions of 'memory safety' that are massively different. Rust's 'memory safety' guarantee is different from Go's 'memory safety'. Rust includes protection from

forget autocomplete, what about type inference? We've had that for decades yet new languages still come out without good support for it.

I don't know what languages you're referring to but I didn't have my eyes opened until I spent significant amounts of time learning Haskell. I think any language with suitably advanced type system would do: ocaml/reason,

I can't seem to get the font to show in vscode. I've installed the ttf fonts to ~/.fonts and refreshed my font cache, but "B612" as a font name doesn't seem to match anything, neither does "B612 Mono"

Is that really true? Netflix uses html5 video to stream. The use case for a pure js player must be fairly small edit : my bad, I thought the project in the OP didn't use html5 video at all, I see how that it is a wrapper around it.

Elm isn't a general purpose programming language. You can only write web-apps with it you can only use TEA (the elm architecture). In that way, the TEA really is it's main value proposition.

Should be noted it usually takes a bit longer to get to that first working version in Rust. It's debatable whether in the long run it's faster to develop with. I would argue it is much faster to get to a final, 'correct&#x2

I got lost in the weeds fairly quickly with this blog post, why is it that you didn't have to implement Future? Pinning is required here because your AsyncRead read_to_end returns a future bound by some reference lifetime?

It seems Go wants to have a more open development process, but it looks like all the decisions are ultimately under the purview of the "Go team". Does the Go team include any community members? Or is this "open process"
