Nobody fires employees just because they speak funny or some other stupid background. White male claims racism no longer exists. World rejoices.

Curious, what are the sizes of the training and validation/test datasets (number of structures)? The proteins are shown on the CASP website [1]. Both the number of residues and number of proteins are bigger than I expected. [1] http

I believe that you are missing the central point. The AppStore rules are unsustainable for people that volunteer their time and expertise for free like the developers of iSH.

iOS developers have made over a half a trillion dollars over the last decade on this unsustainable, constantly shifting foundation that they hate so much. I don't know why you think that this comment is relevant given that iSH is fre

I can’t imagine any way a reverse proxy would generate a 404 or indeed any 4xx error within itself. What if the configuration changes and the API path/URL is no longer in the reverse proxy config? What if the reverse proxy is dynamic

The requested resource was unable to be located because it no longer existed. I should have mentioned that the API was behind a reverse proxy. This leads to the following questions: Which requested resource is missing? The API itself or t

I highly recommend using goimports to format your code on save: https://godoc.org/golang.org/x/tools/cmd/goimports This will hopefully reduce some of the friction you are having.

Please don't let my negative experience put you off learning Rust -- its an important language and worth putting the effort in. I would recommend diving in and seeing if it works for you. For informational purposes, this is what I stil

Rust is going to beat both of these languages. I think looking at this as a battle is not helpful to understanding the situation. In order to supplant C/C++, Rust (and Rust programmers) will need to operate in harmony with the existi

Rust is no harder to learn well than C, as someone else has already commented. My experience is the opposite of this. Back when dinosaurs walked the earth, I moved from one system language (Ada) to C and, in a couple of months, I was writ

I haven't done much Async programming in Rust and I am also struggling with the error messages. One thing I found generally useful (not with error messages) is to "typedef" some of the more complex types as it makes the code

I do wonder what other languages you consider serious apart from C. Off the top of my head I thought C++ and Ada. However, you mention VHDL which I agree with and somebody else pointed out Javascript which is also a good point. The Javasc

Rust also comes with a very deep standard library for I/O, path manipulation etc whereas the C++ equivalents for all of this are still surprisingly lacking even in C++20 (especially on the network side). I agree with this point and c

it's the first language that doesn't have me use Python for quick shell scripting or small prototypes How do you define quick? Python has a large standard library and so you don't have to hunt for functionality on crates.io
