I'm a bit confused by this post, the 'enums' in rust are actually 'algebraic data types' and not enumerations like what the author is showing in python. the code here isn't really very equivalent and if anythin

Did you look at the form? It's 4 fields. I mean assuming I went to the right page. How much of a summary do you expect? https://wildermuth.com/contact

His form has 4 fields... Why on earth he would think he needs either Vue or Angular for that I just don't understand.

Rust absolutely does want to market to the web services crowd. They said as much during their year-end conference. The whole push with futures is partly because of that. This year you'll see a lot more development in the web arena. I r

When people say garbage collection they usually mean a tracing GC. You can twist words and say that shared_ptr means C++ has 'garbage collection' but I doubt anyone would agree with you if were were to word it like: "C++ has

It's really just a worse Either type, if anything, there's nothing monad about it. Although it's sort of hard to be close to an Either without being an algebraic data type. But I see what you're trying to say.

> Errors are just a worse Either monad after allm they're much more pleasant to use than exceptions. How are errors in Go at all monadic? They just have a convention where you return a tuple and manually check if something isn'

If you go for rocket I believe you'll be back on nightly, it uses some codegen that goes above and beyond what serde/diesel use in order to define routes the way it does.

thanks steve!

I thought this was already supported for free standing functions? Or is that only in nightly

by leshow 10y ago
Awesome! I have been stuck on nightly for so many different things because of my dependency on serde. It's very nice to have this on stable now.

I don't care whether google, ycombinator, airbnb, etc acted out of their own self-interest or not (for marketing, as you say). I don't think anyone should. I'm not naive enough to think they would act altruistically, all I ca

The first few of these types of posts were OK. But now it's a bit ridiculous. You spent 2 days trying a new language and you didn't like it, your opinion means nothing.

I agree, but I have an alternate intuition. Humans are only able to understand anything through decomposition to smaller problems, working out those problems, then recomposing to a whole again. This is evident not just in software developme

Starting from scratch in any language that isn't a clone of a language you already know with slightly different syntax would take a few weeks. A few weeks seems like a good trade to me for the safety rust provides for a lot of applicat

Anything that is usually solved with something like typeclasses, or module functors, or inheritance can only be solved in Elm with typing lots and lots of concrete implementations. Other things can't be solved at all, since Elm is so t

I find that somewhat surprising. Are the dozen languages under your belt essentially variations of the same OO paradigms? I am mostly a javascript programmer, and a beginner at haskell, and I found Rust difficult not not that difficult.

They don't have the ability to flat out read messages. If they were to impersonate a contact, you would see that the key had changed (assuming you had this on) and you could choose not to talk to that contact until you verified.

BIP39 is a spec for generating secure mnemonics (passphrases) with 128-bit entropy. I've written a version in rust, have a look. github.com/leshow/rust_mnemonic BIP39 generates 12 word or 24 word mnemonics usually. This was j

I noticed that too, because it get's passed after as an argument, Rust is able to infer it's type.
