> Saying that you ‘couldn’t care less about X’ doesn’t seem logical at all because you of course could I think the whole point is that it means you don't care at all, and therefore it's not possible to care less.

Seed oils (used in almost everything these days) contain a lot of linoleic acid, which is a precursor to endocannabinoids, potentially giving you the munchies. If eating gives you the munchies, making you want to eat more, I'd call tha

> They are simply extreme lock-in proponents and don't want to support cross platform graphics API. Which seems like an ineffective move when you have no market share.

I'd guess SteamOS is more about control than licensing costs. I don't think Valve wants to be at the mercy of Microsoft and their policy & technical decisions.

If you write a network-bottlenecked app in a slow language, then the slow execution time is piled on top of the network latency, making things even worse. I also think people underestimate how much impact their slow code has even in network

I don't think this makes sense? You need to specify an exchange rate somewhere. > just as meter is a unit type of Length The difference is that length units are fixed, but exchange rates are constantly changing.

If it's so well known that he lies about his games, I'd say at this point any gamer that is disappointed that one of his games isn't what he said it would be has only themselves to blame.

Yeah, I've noticed too much Omega 6 is at least one big cause of my anxiety. Avoiding vegetable oils (and foods that are cooked with it) and just using coconut oil, tallow, butter etc. reduces my anxiety to the point that it's bar

I've found the opposite. Misleading comments can be far worse than no comments.

You can use methods in Rust for volatile reads/writes. https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/ptr/fn.write_volatile.html https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/ptr/fn.read_volatile.html

I wonder if there's something in our food and/or environment that effectively does that over long periods of time, ultimately causing some forms of dementia?

I don't know if that's really true. The government tends to be inefficient, and I sometimes wonder if having more tax money available just allows them to be even more inefficient.

You would actually use a Result type: use std::io; pub fn read(path: Path) -> io::Result<Bytes> { File::open(path)?.read_to_end() }

It won't get new features, but will likely require maintenance to keep it running as new versions of operating systems are released.

It's not just a scale thing though. It also matters how problematic a collision will be. But yes, if you're just using them as primary keys in a database you're probably fine with auto increment for most use cases.

> the standard UUID representation doesn't like this. Yeah, I've gotten in the habit of stripping hyphens from the string representation of UUIDs in a lot of the code I write for that reason.

by wtetzner 2y ago
Even UUIDs are not guaranteed to not have duplicates. It's just extremely unlikely, largely due to their length.

I'm not really sure I understand what you're saying and/or asking. As far as I can tell, the statement in question was simply saying that showing the steps to come to a solution is rare, and also that it helps to teach how to

I think it's important to figure out what you're comparing though. A language that makes it easy to pull in dependencies also encourages breaking code into separate modules. Languages that make dependency management hard tend to h

Nope, instead it's pulled into every project whether you need it or not.

Out-of-the-box you can add serde_json to your Cargo.toml file in a single line and have JSON parsing. serde_json = "*" I'm not sure I see the problem.

I don't think there's any arrogance in the statement. It doesn't assume others don't think. It's simply observing that most blog posts and how-to articles show the final result, but not necessarily the steps that we
