   that doesnt explain why every other interpreted language ive ever used doesnt have this problem. its a julia issue that the devs refuse to acknowledge or even test

   Ok sure, lets do that. 46 MB: https://sourceforge.net/projects/tdm-gcc/files/TDM-GCC%20Ins... vs 299 MB: https://static.rust-lang.org/dist/rust-nightly-x86_64-pc-win...

   Why would you not? Surely you would agree there's a point where it starts to matter. What if the platform was 1 GB, 10 GB? Eventually everyone would care. So the point is it's crossed the threshold where I care about it. Maybe it

   Rust platform size has recently increased by 50%: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/61978 which puts it at over double the size of Go. Worse is seems to be no impetus to fix this. Also notable is Rust

   doesnt support POSIX character classes. this should be preferred over `a-z` as the latter relies on users locale.

   The real issue the Balkanization of JavaScript programs. The `rate-map` package is essentially one line of code: start + val * (end - start); https://github.com/shinnn/rate-map/blob/90c234c9/inde

    I think a big part of it is tards like Mark Otto: https://github.com/mdo that make changes without regard of how useful or disruptive they are: https://twitter.com/mdo/status/830138373230653440

    Yep. I was interested in the post as I've always felt Django is python software "done right". I stopped reading when they started complaining about python 3. Python 3 has been out for over 10 years now. Did OP really think Dj

    I just cant understand how a sane person would use syntax like this: { home = "/home/bill" , privateKey = "/home/bill/id_ed25519" , publicKey = "/home/blil&#x2

    Whoa yeah agree, as YAML would give you something completely different: { "outer middle inner": 3 }

    Fair point, but Google is not Apple. Google has a history of railroading standards to suit their needs, to the point where the standard becomes "what Google is doing". See the Chrome project.

    The problem isnt the quality of GitHub with Org-Mode. The problem is that the GitHub syntax highlighter, PrettyLights, is closed source: https://github.com/github/pages-gem/issues/160 So you cant get consiste

    I like Org mode, but the syntax highlighting support is not great: https://github.com/wallyqs/org-ruby/issues/64 I have been looking at AsciiDoc: https://asciidoctor.org/docs/asciidoc-syn

    This is one thing that C# finally fixed. If you go to the downloads: https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet-core/2.2 you get "Build apps - SDK" and "Run apps - Runtime". So you know what

    Andy, you are a really smart and talented person but surely you know the difference between FFI and binding? They are not the same thing, and Zig doesnt (and wont, according to you) have cURL binding.

    I like Zig, but it doesnt even have a HTTP client yet: https://github.com/ziglang/zig/issues/2007 granted neither does C, but C has cURL, and Zig doesnt (and wont) have cURL binding: https://github

    Neither does JavaScript fetch, I dont get your point
27. 897.▲
    by svnpenn 7y ago

    It does do that. The only issue you might have is library support, but I have found it to be pretty good. For example Nim has had async HTTP client for a while now, while even Rust is just now getting it. https://nim-lang.github.

    await goes inside the function, at least thats how its done with JavaScript - do you have evidence otherwise? https://developer.mozilla.org/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Opera...
