I have no intention to stop writing on my blog for AI reasons and I don't even see why I should. I suspect a majority of people who post here are the same.

That's a false dichotomy - clearly there's more options than these two. There's definitely a better way to address this issue. On the other hand, between those two, it arguably is worse, because we now live in worst of both w

I find both the article and the title a bit too simplistic for the topic. This is the classic "build vs buy" problem and I think it's one of the hardest problems in softare development and maybe engineering in general. I&#x27

I also don't quite like TigerBeetle as an example, because it is very new startup. They are pre-1.0 and just a bit more than a year since production release. It's way too early to tell whether their approach actually paid off.

Note that most of the emissions come from fairly mundane stuff, notably heating and road transport. Tackling those is fairly straghtforward without that many changes in lifestyle. The last ~20% is where it becomes really difficult without m

Honestly, these articles are borderline misinformation in my opinion. All of them do a lot of guesswork and cherry picking data to make cool headlines. The first one chooses somewhat arbitrary date of 2019 to make the 51% figure stand out.

Glad I'm not the only one to see the disconnect here. I thought I'm somehow missing rest of the paper text, it really doesn't say all that much compared to the article interpretation.

No, it wasn't wrong, because "oil reserves" are defined as: "quantities of crude oil and natural gas from known fields that can be profitably produced/recovered from an approved development", which means they c

That was true back then though. It boils down to how oil "reserve" is defined, which is all about oil we know how to extract.

The keyword here is "Long term" I suppose, that can mean anything. I couldn't actually find where this claim comes from. The referenced paper doesn't seem to say anything about doubling CO2 concetrations.

I don't quite like littering the code with logs, but I understand there's a value to it. The problem is that if you only log problems or "important" things, then you have a selection bias in the log and don't have a

Sure, but you said that "businesses on the web directly benefit from things being not accessible." which is obviously not true in gereal. Every business would be stupid to not make their checkout form accesible, for example.

That's pretty selective view of the problem. And I'm also pretty sure it's at least partially a fallacy that even some these businesses are fooled by. Removing friction often increases your revenue, that's been shown in

Concept Processor actually sounds pretty good, I like it. That's pretty close to how I treat LLMs.

Interesting. This says a different thing than what I thought from the title. I thought this will be about cognitive overload from having to process and review all the text the LLM generates. I had to disable copilot for my blog project in t

Those are some good reasons, and I can admit that they work on me. The testing one is big, I don't want add a bunch of artificial attributes just match an element in test, it's much more natural to just target elements semanticall

This is somewhat true but also a bit misleading. Lot of the problems comes from how rust interacts with it, and how are rust projects structured. This ultimately shows up as time in LLVM, but LLVM is not entirely responsible for it.

Just to clarify - polymorphization is not automatic dyn dyspatch or anything related. I'm talking about compile time optimization that avoids duplicating generic functions.

by panstromek 1y ago
There are many more mundane examples of language design choices in rust that are problematic for compile time. Polymorphization (which has big potential to speed up compile time) has been blocked on pretty obscure problems with TypeId. Proc

cargo check exists for option 1. For 2.) it depends on the project structure. Either way, they don't help as much as you would hope for.

The original title is: Why doesn't Rust care more about compiler performance?

by panstromek 1y ago
The biggest reason for this is reuse between libraries - if you use 10 libraries, you don't want each of them to add its own leftpad. This is especially a problem if this happens in client code and you then send duplicate code to the b
