This line of thought works for storage in isolation, but does not hold up if write speed is a concern.
Where I work we tend to write RFCs for fundamental design decisions. Deciding what counts as a "fundamental design decision" is sometimes self-moderated in the moment but we also account for it when making long term…
I would like to see improvements in the speed of feedback - particularly from language servers - but the value of those 'basic' guarantees is more than worth the current cost. Unexpected side effects are responsible for…
Your comment is far too reasonable. Go directly to jail. Do not pass ⅄OR.
Nushell is quite nice. Tables are nice to work with and look at, and the cross-platform support is top notch. It feels like what Powershell would have been, had it been designed by people who have actually used a…
I'm mostly indifferent to it because it doesn't really harm readability, and it's not hard to know when to use it, but I can seem why it might be more strongly disliked. You can't entirely rely on it to know a…
Is writing a simple CSS file and some HTML code really too much effort for a personal blog? Clicking around this site the only non-trivial things are the RSS feed and the paginated scrolling (which seems wholly…
I think the official Zig website already does a good enough job at expressing what the the language has to offer, to the extent C devs can read a couple of pages and know whether or not they vibe with the language. The…
I can't really comment on the nuances of the sound, but a digital piano will allow you to plug in headphones which is - in my opinion - invaluable in a home environment.
I missed UO's hayday, but when I've played the big modern MMOs I find myself instead attracted to the idea that individual characters shouldn't be able to do everything. I feel like forcing players to interact if they…
This is my perspective too. Whenever I find myself having to use Windows (which these days is just for games with Windows-only anti-cheat), the annoyances feel so much more pronounced.
Most likely you specifically don't have much reason to care about Zig. Meanwhile, C can still often be found in areas where high performance and precise control over memory are important - such as in small embedded…
It's a strange sentence for sure. Organising your programs around data and its transformation happens to mean you are aware of how hardware organises, represents, and transforms data, and accommodate that to keep things…
It's seems clear to my family and friends that they have some sort of checklist for writers that includes garbage like mandatory regular sex scenes. In my case, they have _finished_ a tiny tiny percentage of their…
"Rust has mature and production ready frameworks in Actix Web and Rocket" Why is Rocket considered production ready when it's only just at version 0.5? Similar <1.0 stories can be found on crates for sqlx, rusqlite, and…
Ok, sure, there are a whole bunch of reasons that my function might not actually finish. In this case, though, it's specifically not finishing due to invisible compile-time additions Zig is making to the function I've…
Within main(), your snippet will give you an error at compile time "function with calling convention 'Inline' cannot be async". In my snippet foo() is invoked in an async context using the async keyword, and when foo()…
My original reply is kind of sloppy, here's a snippet to better illustrate my confusion: https://gitlab.com/-/snippets/2290425 Specifically, examine this: fn foo() void { bar(); std.log.info("foo() is finished", .{}); }…
This article was my first exposure to async in Zig, and I find it rather at odds with the "No hidden control flow" selling point of the language. fn foo() void { bar(); std.log.info("bar is finished"); baz();…
PoW also favors those who are already rich it's just abstracted by one layer of them having to buy rigs for mining farms, instead of being hard-coded in the same way as PoS.
I've been running Lineage OS without any Google Play Services and it's been pretty rough. A lot of apps from various APK mirrors just straight up don't work, even when they seem like they shouldn't be affected at alll.…
Yeah, if you click too many links without an account it'll bring up a sign-up pop-up that takes you to the previous page when you close it. You can get around it by opening the link in a new tab, or save yourself…
Personally I haven't found Stack Overflow useful for anything in a looong time. At work, usually my problems are specific to whatever proejct I'm working on and my peers are the only real source of answers regarding…
The readmes in each section are fantastic. Also, I cannot believe how straight-forward bootstrapping is on a modern ARM chip compared to x64, where things become painful quickly thanks to decades worth of backwards…
Yeah, I don't know how America can be considered a so-called "free country" when the people living there will get angry at me for using slurs and being generally discriminative. I'm sure it's just a matter of time until…
