It could very much be from the second system effect though. A rewrite in C++ from a competing team would provide a control for that. As many others have mentioned though, the real kicker is that they did attempt a rewrite twice in C++ aimin

I built a tool that generates personal code coverage reports from general test code coverage and repo inputs. IE what is the code coverage on lines I wrote this sprint and lines I wrote ever. It stores blame coverage data in an sqlite db an

The latest stable rocket release doesn't use async, actix does. The master branch of rocket does have async (and stable rust, not nightly!) support.

For me personally: * It has the performance profile of C * A really good package manager * I don't have to worry about segfaults/runtime issues from manual memory management * I love the type system (yay expressive static types wi

Ah, when I say rollbacks, I mean when you go to upgrade, you duplicate the strata (OS install), and the do everything in the new strata. Then if anything went wrong, delete the new strata and switch back to the one you branched from.

I have never used bedrock linux in anger, but it fascinates me. I'm glad it finally made it to the front page. Edit: I've been fiddling with NixOS and reading up on pros/cons vs scripting everything and having a good repo wit

Yes. And I shudder to think just how many bugs there would be in a home-grown sudo replacement.

Lines of code is great approximation for complexity, or at least how many bugs you're writing: https://softwareengineering.stackexchange.com/questions/1856...

Oof. I work on an angular app and the build is slow as molasses because it's big. And we of course don't want to move away from the official build tool because build time improvements are always "right around the corner"

There's an interesting thread over on reddit about supporting Rust on this - apparently the multi-core architecure is different enough from a normal CPU to cause issues: https://www.reddit.com/r/rust/comments&

I'm not sure why you would need to re-do a full gamut of trials for anything except deciding that the current type of data collected was insufficient. Presumably you record all data, and just split it into test and train sets, and you&

I think dream jobs are like soul mates. Yeah, you have good fits, but there's not just one perfect job for you, upon which all personal fulfillment is predicated. Not to say you can't find a job that makes you super happy... I thi

> Also Dendrite is Go, not Rust. Ah, my bad. Thanks.

by swsieber 6y ago
Yeah, I'd see more of an issue it matrix was a platform. It's more akin to email.

by swsieber 6y ago
Dendrite is the next big thing right? Written in Rust? I'd be curious to see how the performance is there with it being in Rust and a rewrite/new implementation that can learn from experience.

Hopefully it means more snow in Utah. It's been very dry this year, which means summer will be very dry and hot since there won't be much mountain melt run-off.

IIRC there is some sort of tool for generating inter-blog links. Maybe by our stavros? My memory is fuzzy here.

True, but it wasn't JetBrains's CI pipeline that was compromised.

Could I take this opportunity to ask the HN community what they use on linux for photo editing (and what they like a out it)? ... if anybody like that exists ;)

No, the equivalent of this in the sports world would be fining a team some thousands of dollars for drug abuse instead of banning the offending players.

Some companies do this, though probably not publishing data. Any customer downtime is treated the same - for one, for many, for all (in theory, ha ha). But they take it pretty seriously.

With type ascription being optional in some places, I have to wonder if using the colon for both type ascription and fn return type would introduce any parsing/grammar ambiguities. I personally like the arrow being used for return type

I think the general thrust of the article, that CS innovation is harder and less prolific than 1996 is generally true. I think it's a lot more nuanced than in the article though. Something not mentioned is that CS (and every field) has
