I’ve gotta say, when I first learned Rust had gone its own way on await, I was heavily sceptical. But seeing the actual examples was pretty compelling.

An absolutely bonkers way of saying “our metrics are outdated and wrong”.

There’s not really a difference. Once you’ve got the ability to selectively disable encryption and you’ve folded to one regime, you’re gonna fold to them all.

Also Microsoft: your enum should have an explicit Unknown entry with value 0.

Heaven forbid if the US catches up with the U.K. in the 1990s.

Also superior since I can see the replies.

I’m loving this: it’s a complete misfeature that anyone can point out is conceptually just wrong, but also implemented so incompetently there’s a workaround.

After 14 years of neglect, I still prefer it to Teams.

I feel like the “no cutscenes” thing is overplayed. I’m not saying it wasn’t huge, but there was a lot more to HL’s storytelling than just the “animatronics on a fairground ride” stuff. They could have done that without the constantly evolv

Who are these articles for? I feel like Clojure’s value proposition is pretty well understood, and every last Clojure pitch can be relied upon to make the same exact points.

Ideally everyone who visits the page would get the entries in a different order.

It’s always been free speech for us, not for you.

I mean, congratulations you’ve explained why the Speechers criticising Twitter were always wrong on this point, but Twitter has now been taken over by people who’ve been pushing a very unamerican idea of free speech so it’s fair game to poi

Penultimate Chess is interesting: you propose two moves, your opponent picks which one happens.

Rust is pretty good for command line tooling, news at 11.

It’s weird the way that people decide something is “political” and then swear black is white to support that political belief.

Let me ask a related question, how does employing the power of the federal government to do the reverse manually and at genuine cost to the taxpayer help anyone?

by moomin 2y ago
The way it’s being done is profoundly unserious, but let’s not lose sight of the fact that this is politicians interfering with what it’s acceptable to think and study.

The roots of the 2nd amendment are way murky. Two contributing factors: 1) Guns were essential for controlling slaves 2) No-one trusted the US Army (partly because it was heavily associated with Alexander Hamilton)

U2 literally employ a stylist who buys their clothes from second hand clothes markets. An incredibly expensive way of supporting a “no consumption” aesthetic.

Speaking as an old C# hand: 1) I don’t think static methods/classes are that big a deal. There’s a free-floating syntax for short scripts but I don’t regard this as much of a problem. There’s also the rarely used using static syntax. 2

I've been laid off a few times. I'd add one more "danger sign": you're not busy. If the firm/department doesn't seem to be achieving very much, it's a good sign that no-one's asking much of them.

In universe, arguing the X-Men are not human would put you firmly in the villain category.

Worth emphasising: Project Euler is a mathematical computation challenge, not a programming challenge like Advent of Code. The principal skill is algorithm design and as the problems progress you need to do more and more maths before you st

Yeah, perhaps I should have qualified it with “no-one who knows what they’re doing”.

The Wire is a great show, but it’s still copaganda. Dude managed to create a five year show set in the Baltimore Police Department without mentioning racism once.
