One in France (or other European French-speaking countries) would say "des Legos" to refer to a bunch of Lego pieces or Lego sets. "Un Lego" would mean a single Lego brick.

Using cargo (the build tool), you can add dependencies using Git URLs. Referencing crates.io is just "the usual way" to add dependencies. Git repositories can disappear (becoming private, author changes username, etc.), crates.io

Pardon my French, but merde, this is impressive. I've tried it on 20-40min French videos and the summary and section-dividing is spot on.

There is a recurring joke about Go's language design ignoring many bits of the general language design knowledge collectively acquired through decades of writing new languages. This change is an example of why this joke exists.

It is a known fact in philosophy that spelling mistakes automatically invalidate whatever thesis you are defending.

An "alternative OS" built on top of the NT kernel would certainly be interesting. It would take a decade to a thousand-person team, but it would be interesting

Plainly, to give women a chance in a field that is excessively male-dominated for systemic reasons. Not saying this was a good or bad idea. Not that women are less capable than men at playing chess, but boys were historically way more encou

Having used both, I find it much easier to predict the behavior of Rust code than C++ code when metaprogramming is involved. Rust is very much against having thirty-seven and a half automatic deduction mechanisms under a trenchcoat and cal

There's a nice calculator app bundled with Windows 10, and I even have Mathematica installed, and of course Desmos is useable everywhere, but... when I need to compute anything that's more than simple elementary arithmetic, I just

Funny, I grew up making GUI apps on VB (and then VB.NET) using Windows Forms and I've always found it really easy compared to the web stack. You're not fighting against a flow algorithm that was designed for documents, trying to p

Turing-complete languages have been around for the better part of a century now, had we stopped after the first one we'd still be writing some kind of Zuse machine language. There's purpose in trying to make better languages, th

Most importantly, she disagreed with the FSF's policy of never using any binary blob anywhere for any reason, because that was incompatible with the goal of supporting as much hardware as possible. Hence, the GNU Boot fork. But then, t

The blackout is as much about a small number of users using third party clients for personal tastes as the American civil war was about states rights. The real issue, as can be read in the long PSAs pinned to some of the restricted but publ

The average Linux desktop has never been fully standardized. The average Windows desktop today (let's say, W10/11) is descended from W7 which was arguably really consistent. Even if they took W7 and bastardized it by introducing 1

From a Windows development point of view, Linux is way behind. Async I/O has been at the core of the NT kernel since the very beginning (since VMS, even), whereas on Linux (and Unix) everything has been designed with blocking I/O

This one runs the C code as a program, so the code doesn't really communicate. I made a proof of concept some time ago of a macro that really translates C to Rust at compile time: https://github.com/zdimension/embe
