Nix requires a bunch of stuff to setup and to understand. uv is just a binary in PATH.

Patiently waiting for the day when someone makes something similar for macOS.

Your version needs Python. uv needs needs only uv, as it can manage python installation by itself. It's also a lot easier to install uv than to manage Python installations (there's a reason pyenv and the like exist).

What is the problem with that? I see no reason to expect that would work.

It stops when we run out of easy things that can be done to improve the lives of people. It's not that hard.

It doesn't. There are cases where the type-checker can't know the type (e.g. json.load has to return Any), but there are tools in the language to reduce how much that happens. If you commit to a fully strictly-typed codebase, it d

Annotations can and should be checked. If I change a parameter type, other code using the function will now show errors. That won't happen with just documentation.

What does this even mean? If I read from a file that doesn't exist, what should the returned object be? Isn't the state of the file directly tied to the error? If I ignore the error and try to use the file anyway, the following op

Now you're restricting yourself to a subset of the language. There's nothing stopping someone from adding a mutable member to your "immutable" type later. It's much better to have immutable bindings/references

> A "tiny bit more" thinking is not sufficient. They could've at least looked at what other languages were doing at the time, and that would have been much better than what they ended up with. However, as with many other a

When x and y are primitives, yes. But if they're objects, final only prevents you from re-assigning them. You could still call methods that mutate them.

Because they chose a half-assed way to implement generics, and the path they took doesn't interact well with the rest of the type system.

Claude Code is amazing. Unfortunately, it's also very expensive. How do interactions with MCP servers affect token usage/cost?

I have a project on torch 2.6 and numpy 2.2. I never had any issues with that combination.

It was just an example, sheesh. The point is that many mainstream languages get caught in OO soup, even those that don't have to.

You might find yourself in a job market where that isn't possible.

It's unclear whether `chat` is a field/property/member of `RubyLLM` or a method being called.
529.
by maleldil 2y ago
chat = RubyLLM.chat Is ambiguous, though. You can't know if it's an assignment or creating a new object. I don't think that's more readable.
530.
by maleldil 2y ago
I understand it's a Ruby thing, `chat = RubyLLM.chat` looks odd. How do I know whether it's a function call returning an object or just an assignment? Why not just use `RubyLLM.chat()` and eliminate the ambiguity?

FWIW, I've had to write similar code when there's some complex "folding" operation. I use map/filter a lot, but fold/reduce/accumulate always seemed harder to understand than a for loop. I also prefer nest

How do you determine where the venv is? AFAIK, uv run in script mode creates the venv in some random temporary directory.

You can also add #![warn(clippy::all, clippy::pedantic)] to your main.rs/lib.rs file to get those lints project-wide.

How is ruff integrated? As far as I understand, it's still a separate tool that you need to install.

It works transparently. The lock file is cross-platform by default. When using pytorch, it automatically installs with MPS support on macOS and CUDA on Linux; everything just works. I can't speak for Windows, though.

How does this interact with your code editor or IDE? When you edit the file, where does the editor look for information about the imported third-party libraries?

How would the fork be funded? You can't expect a complex program like a browser to be developed exclusively by volunteers in their free time.

This is a good idea, and I also enforce something similar in my projects. I credit Go for popularising gofmt, including strong defaults and little customisation. My main complaint is that gofmt doesn't break lines.

If `isReadyToDoThing` is only used in one place, I'd argue that it's better to inline it with an appropriately-named variable so I don't have to "go to definition" to understand what it's doing. I think people
