I didn't pay much attention to recent evolutions of the language, so most of what follows is what motivated me to steer clear of Go in the past. I think the prevalent attitude in the Go community towards complexity is harmful. Trying t

Good idea. Just did so.

Author here. You're correct. I started this when I was getting into formal languages / compiler design, but I couldn't dedicate much time to it after writing the lexer and parser. Later on, I didn't have much interest in

How does that test intuition?

I'm going to bet it's because this was written by Marc Andreessen.

Several comments here seem to imply that the answer to the title is 'yes'. Reading the article appears to imply either the opposite or no effect.

This is specific to asm!. It is a macro, and you can use macros to implement custom syntactic constructs.

A Promise-based API doesn't block the event loop, but a synchronous one like fs.readFileSync does. Their usage might look similar but their semantics differ vastly.

If you can make your app fit in a single binary and you do not _need_ Docker's features, then yes, I don't see why you'd bother using it. Docker shouldn't be your immediate go-to. It's just another tool that can hel

Because high compilation times can be a major turnoff, and the single-threaded performance of a beefy developer workstation is not that much higher than that of a regular machine. You can't always throw more cores at a problem, and M

I'm unaware of an architecture named am64, so I assume you mean amd64, in which case that _is_ x86_64. Same ISA, different name.

Look into KeePass, it's better than an encrypted DMG :). There's a Mac implementation called MacPass which is really well-designed and easy to use.

Sounds like what you want a microkernel with excellent IPC. There is still the problem of the window manager, incompatible protocols, and backwards compatibility, but I think a very small, robust core with discrete components that communica

But if the file you are removing is the only reference (i.e. hard link) to that inode, you're not just modifying the directory's contents; you're also removing data from the filesystem as a whole.

Nitpick: `std::ptr::null()` is not just there for C interop. It's also useful when writing pure Rust unsafe code.

Then it would seem that we agree, because I don't either. Christianity is definitely faith based.

I agree with you regarding "Let there be light" referring to the Big Bang. However, it's not unreasonable to assume that there might have been another source of light for these plants to grow. Alternatively, even if there was

WebAssembly might be a big step towards improving that.

But it will not read outside of the buffer. It will panic at runtime instead. That's not a buffer overrun.

Yes, it does. Not all CPU cores are created equal. Performance depends on microarchitecture, cache size, memory bandwidth and latency, clock speed, hardware acceleration of specific features, and hyper-threading capabilities, to name a few.

This article is very interesting, but it's unfortunate that its title says little about its content. I had no idea it was about Apple when I opened it, expecting it to be about the Go programming language instead. > Why the 7th gene
