> thus, by default, you're essentially writing FP code using a 'procedural' paradigm and syntax I've not heard it described this way. It's an idea I can get behind. A lot of the native code I write tends to try

I'd consider C++ as the worst of the worst when it comes to ease of entry. Compared to, say Javascript, Ruby, or Go, Rust has a secondary set of rules that programmers have to learn before they can even do the most simple things. As an

Ruby hits that sweet spot for me. Have you seen Crystal? Ruby, but native. Amazing stuff.

There seems to be a happy point in languages where it's easy enough to get up and running, but complex enough to come back through and tighten things up. Like how Python allows a secondary file for parameter types in the function signa

Is there a plan to bring together a bunch of these extensions under one roof with a package/dependency manager similar to cargo or npm, or is it intended to be glued together on the developer side? To me this looks massive, like to be

Yes, assuming there's no flaws in the interpreter. But they're all moving full steam ahead in the browsers right now, so imagine it's deemed as safe as javascript. The current push is to divvy up the permissions of certain re

This whole thing is a shot across the bow of Java. Everyone is finally piling on to kill it once and for all.

No. Marking memory as executable is a native machine level capability (as in x86_64 assembly machine instructions). Wasm is a stack machine interpreter that can read only Wasm binaries. The binary format is essentially just a compressed&#x2

I've watched how the morning standups are abused. The people with the authority to call them have wasted countless COUNTLESS hours of productivity going in circles about non-issues, just to flex their authority. If I'm upper manag

"they're previously worked with? That's a good sign." As in good, or bad?

The key is that it recursively searches (for instance in C++) header files for the word under the cursor and brings you to the first result. To go backward 'CTRL-O' jumps back in the jump list. I've not yet found a way to go

I've yet to find someone explain a serverless API based setup that isn't more complicated than good old fashioned LAMP or equivalent. Serverless seems to always come out more expensive as well.

Does it have something to do with the Copa America that's currently going on right now? Maybe more people inside watching the games and using up power.

Smartphones are great for communication. Better than anything we've had before. But past a point, they are distracting. Just use smartphones for communication and have the self control to avoid the pitfalls.

You can usually precisely control garbage collection by turning it off or forcing it to run. The cognitive load to handle memory manually is not insignificant. If you control memory manually, you eventually end up designing some kind of mec

People take their privacy seriously. Our addons were disabled. I was browsing for a few minutes until I saw ads and didn't realize what was going on. Unacceptable that the default to an expiring signature is to disable them completely.

You've fucked up mozilla. I had no option other than to switch over to a browser that would let me install my ad blocker. The web sucks too bad for this. My addons are mine, not yours to disable and enable at will.

Good. I visited Spain a couple decades ago and by far the craziest amount of smog I witnessed was in Madrid. I would be sneezing black stuff by the end of my couple days there. Really hope they get it cleaned up because it's such a nea

So they'd have to let the plane nose down towards the ground for a bit to then be able to trim back up. This sounds like a cascading failure to me.

Would you be able to comment on how Microsoft is allowing these sorts of projects considering I imagine it would cut into Visual Studio (paid version) revenue? I've almost completely switched over to VSCode from Vim+Ctags and it's

The whole point was that we were supposed to be recycling, not using more fossil fuels to ship it all back overseas to be possibly just burned or buried anyways. And at best the recycled material is shipped yet again overseas back to us in
