I think the argument is that if you're depending heavily on a "batteries included" standard library of a high-level language, you in fact aren't really building it yourself.

I've been building a small relational database ( https://github.com/shoyo/jin ) with the goal being fast, easy to read, and (eventually) Postgres protocol-compliant. What I've built so far are the lowest level

Maybe rebranding GitHub Sponsors as not just a means of giving money but one-off "thank you" messages would be a decent approach to encouraging gratitude in open source.

I'm actually confused if this site was created ironically. * "Google search is malicious, send the same data to Russia with Yandex instead." * Apparently Google Chrome is a search engine. * "Google doesn’t care about use

Have any projections been made on the net effect on the environment of EFFORCE? It seems a bit ironic to me that a project laser-focused on energy efficiency depends on blockchain, which massively contributes to electricity consumption and

Awesome project! I've spend some time on sites like Keyhero and 10fastfingers since I really enjoy typing, but sites like those ultimately feel time sinks since there's very little to gain after you reach a decent WPM. This site f

Maybe this is an ignorant question, but how exactly is Rust influenced by web dev? I don't see how the aspects that make Rust popular (ownership, lifetimes, strong type system etc.) contribute much to web dev in particular. Languages u

A bit of a tangent, but I think it would be worth distinguishing between vim-as-the-text-editor and vim-as-the-keybindings. For me, the value of vim comes from how quickly I can manipulate text, not necessarily that I can use a text editor

I'm not quite sure how this is even remotely an expectation.

This is a fascinating blog series. I've been dabbling in Rust lately and really appreciate how powerful and helpful the compiler is even to beginners. > Due to recent changes at Mozilla my time working on the Rust compiler is drawin

I think it's interesting that there's some periodicity in the graph showing the "Share of US Spotify top 200 streams going to top 40 songs" where the share spikes during each summer. I have no substantive conclusions abo

That's an interesting take, but I don't think the explanation could be so simple as "just that". It looks like the graph in the article showing the share of streams toward top songs has been trending downward long before

I've heard of a similar situation as well. It's a common saying here to never become somebody's hoshonin (guarantor), no matter who it is you're helping out.

It seems like this course is on the bleeding edge of high-quality education -- the use of Julia as the programming language of choice, Discord for communication, and most importantly 3Blue1Brown as an instructor. Good to see that innovation

A bit of a tangent, but even if hashing was hypothetically equivalent to encryption, wouldn't it still be good practice for organizations to encourage users to change their passwords after a data breach? A good hashing algorithm today

Maybe I'm missing something, but it seems like the foreword has little to do with the rest of the article. I was hooked after reading the beginning anecdote, but the transition to a general overview of security concepts felt a bit abru

Hello! Author here. I've been an active lurker on HN for a while now, but this is the first time I've posted anything so I'm a bit nervous :) This is a side project I started recently to get familiar with async in Rust using
