Give me a single example of a useful bunker in the history of war. With my modest knowdeldge, from the Maginot line to the Atlantic Wall, none. They're pretty much like locks. Can be cracked with a cocktail of goodwill and *time*.

Would be interesting to known if those articles were also entry points, e.g right after a search.

Most of D users would rather call that "static contracts". I dont know why the author choose to call that "unit test".

Haven't you noticed that the homepage does not include the X widget anymore ? It's been removed [1] exactly because of that, i.e the content is not public anymore. [1]: https://github.com/dlang/dlang.org/

yeah, printf is not "pure", it can modify CPU flags so it's not always an adequate tool.

Just admit that discussions about proglangs are just so delicate. They turn people mad. End of the story.

On the trivial point of view, I've never get why don't people just buy cheap potatoes, peals them, slice them, and finally fry them. If you're not clever enough to do that be not surprised to be abused by a cartel.

That post does not mention how contracts can help as preliminaries clues on the nature of the bugs. Sure you can printf or run gdb, or whathever, but first if something like a contract has failed it will be easyer.

Another criticism would be the time spent to compile those abstractions, even if in fine the "zero cost" goal _at runtime_ is reached.

everything you can do in `git gui` is actually a silly shell script but that works for me. https://github.com/git/git/blob/master/git-gui/git-gui.sh

The one at the output cant really fix aliasing. At this point bad things have already folded in the normal spectrum.

Also the name of the power plants is missing, on top of the fact that the data is outdated. For example after a little check I see that the Fessenheim PP (France) is still represented, although it's not producing anymore.

The first thing I do when I hear of a new PL is to look at its bug tracker.

Depending on the language used sometimes you can even hide the type of the singleton instance in a function body (also assuming the PL support local static decls), so instead of having `TypeX.instance()` you can just have `xInstance()`. Oth

Well it is already the case, for example things like ROR or ROL are generated by optimizers[1] from certain patterns of bitops. [1]: https://godbolt.org/z/eE1cx9GT4

I agree, isn't it a pitty. D should have worked more. Why the heck people ignore it ? They prefear speaking about zig, odin, c3, v, nim, crystal, etc ? I eventually look at their bug trackers and see bugs that have been fixed since yea
