   The article introduces the concept of Tao as following the natural tendency of things, but then arbitrarily defines principles on how to program (and has nothing to do with Go specifically). I would have been more interested in the "ac

   IIRC invariants are pre-conditions and post-conditions, the context/state before and after an instruction/function is executed.

   I sure don't, C++ is pretty commonly used for this usecase and memory management is at least somewhat less manual in Rust than C++

   This is basically one massive ad for RHEL that also insults open-source maintainers, developers and users.

    Actually Web Clips are an exception: you cannot have it in App Library. It's either on your home screen or deleted.

    The desktop computer you get can either become your own desktop computer, your partner's or your child's new desktop computer, it can become your parent's new computer if the one they have is aging. It can become a homeserver

    AFAIK `stc` only does type-checking, it does not compile TS to JS and has no ambition of becoming an LSP. `swc` by the same author does compiling, but not type-checking. From what I understand it's common in the TypeScript world to do

    Solid, Svelte, React and Vue are component frameworks and are client frameworks. In production, you have to bring in Next, Nuxt, SvelteKit, SolidStart, Remix or similar which are the "full-stack" frameworks using the component fra

    My bad, I misunderstood. Do you do all of this with an AppleScript? I would be really interested to look at this if you have it hosted on a repo somewhere.

    If you have macOS you don't need either, just plug your iPhone open up "/Applications/Image Capture.app" and it will show your photos. You can select and drag and drop to a disk and delete them all from this app.

    Although Cemu 2.0 officially only supports Linux and Windows, experimental releases [1] have added macOS releases since Sep 14 [2] (x64 builds only). It looks like TLOZ: Breath of the Wild is playable on an M1 Max Mac [3]. [1]: https:&#x2F

    I remember reading that Tailscale is "helping out" [1] development of Headscale [2], an open-source re-implementation of their command server so that the two remain compatible as new features are added to the official one. [1]: h

    I agree, really is wasted space and does not really respect mobile conventions: it would be more fitting to have this on the bottom like Twitter on mobile (or what most Android and iOS apps do nowadays)

    Really cool idea. Could work really well if today's headlines were not as sensational / clickbaity as they are just to drive ad-revenue up. Since you already use GPT-3 to generate digests of articles, couldn't you use it to a

    Oh right, forgot I needed to download 1 MB of stuff (incl. 750 kB of JS) for a tiny 6-line article [1]. Performance is absolutely abysmal . If you really want to use a JS framework that much, just use Astro so you don't ship all the u

    This is exactly what the "Pixar-style" animation has been about for the past decade: super realistic textures but cartoon-esque proportions. I wouldn't be surprised if as development progresses more and more assets get their

    I may be wrong, but I think it goes something like this: Languages that benefit from JIT compilation are languages with a dynamic type system: the JIT profiles the hot paths to optimize (e.g. this function is called a lot with integer param

    I think I remember reading some time ago that an iOS app could use about 60% of the total memory (that would be 3GB for a 5GB iPhone). But on some devices (16GB M1/M2 iPad Pro) you can go beyond 60%.
