Loosely speaking, it’s a type signature for a function that 1. takes an immutable reference to a vector of strings and 2. returns an immutable reference to a string, 3. with the constraint that the strings in the input vector must not be fr

I also wonder if the service industry labor shortage was somehow related to the tech hiring boom, if indirectly.

It does mean that tactful social interactions require conscious mental effort for a person with ASD. If you’re busy using your mind for something else, tact might get lost along the way. Or so I understand.

Yes. Parent also said that they are not real computers. What I am saying is that they are.

The binary would most likely work correctly so they could restart the coal plant, and read the Rust manual later to understand the source code.

iOS devices are running a derivative of straight up macOS that your MacBook is running too. As computers, they are as real as any. The "only run approved software" part is a restriction imposed by Apple. It is not because of a phy

> How do you get around it though? Genuinely asking. Parent only talked about Apple so it could be that they're running Windows on a "PC" instead. But Linux is also perfectly usable. If you're someone who tinkers with

That's great for you! Then stick with your current setup. I don't already know C++. For me, learning Rust is easier than learning safe C++. I imagine that there are many people in a similar situation for whom Rust makes more sense

Parent may have meant that the second implementation might perform better, even if it’s in the same language, because you learn from the first implementation.

It seems inherently difficult to define strict categories around the soft constraints that you are listing. But it would be interesting to try to approximate something like those categories. The project repo[1] contains the following call f

When you get sufficiently close to the metal, the performance gains seem to be coming from better algorithms rather than from the programming language. Like you are saying: > The reasons for these gaps can include things like it being ha

That is true. But it is weaker than GPL in that it permits mixing CDDL code with non-CDDL code. The argument that the essay appears to be making is that large companies want to establish themselves as monopolies by requiring that competing

This is based largely on an essay from 18 to 20 years ago.[1] The claim that GPL benefits large companies that want to maintain monopolistic market power is not supported by several developments in the years up till today. Intel’s stealth c

The word "always" may have lost its significance to us. Maybe it carried more meaning to writers who were only familiar with natural languages, not programming languages.

"Mathematical" and "optical" alignment is not the best wording I think. It seems that "align by weight, not by width" would be a better way to summarize the author's advice. But apart from that, it is good
