I believe the Binja folk originate from the CTF folk.
It is of course an exaggeration, but that's what is somewhat annoying to me. But dismissing this point by just saying me "get better" after literally years of using Rust is a bit of a weak point, or am i in the wrong…
It also drives me insane when i dump the problems i have with Rust about this exact issue, that i usually have to restructure my code to satisfy the compilers needs, and they come at me with the "Skill Issue" club... I…
There's also a fundamental difference in Zig and Rust. Ever tried reading std code in Rust? If you have, you would notice one thing really quick: it's borderline unreadable. It's a hornet's nest of Generics over…
I mean reading through the article it was only considering author's present perception which is a bit too naïve in my opinion. Out of my head, the benefits of having a `build.zig` that you learn right from the get go…
I think that'd require a different Datatype than a Raw pointer. Allocating heap memory is a side-effect that's not really predictable, if you take all the factors into account. However i can see a world where this may…
I am not entirely sure what the Author is criticizing? It looks like a comparison to Odin rather than any critic. And also: I don't quite understand most of the Arguments. UB is often a way to ensure that certain…
This looks interesting to me, as i am currently using GlazeWM, but a lack of scriptiness makes it a bit of a hassle for me to use, it also sometimes is glitchy especially with a specific set of applications i use. I…
Very nice project, i think the way you navigate is implemented spot on! Although i have some questions / concerns: - "Command mode" (`:`) seems a bit more different compared to Helix / Kakoune and maybe even VIM. I…
I'm in my mid 20s, but already have ~4 years of professional experience. Basically for me this "day of productivity" can extend to up to 3 days, but yes the cycle in general is always to some degree: Productive -> Lazy…
Location: EU, Germany, Munich Remote: Yes, only! Willing to relocate: Not for the next ~2 years Technologies: Back-End | Rust, Go, C, C++, Zig, Linux / Windows / macOS, SQLite, generally interested in almost all…
Interesting take. For me it was quite the opposite, regular Linux distributions annoyed me because after having them set up, some stupid mistake (either from my side, or from upstream, unsure about this) caused my whole…
I would say that different technologies serve a different purpose. So, saying, that e.g., Zig is generally better or worse than Rust doesn't make any sense to me, as both Languages have a different purpose. I would much…
I would love to see some examples, as i am not entirely sure what's so of-putting by it. My personal subjective opinion is, that yes, the syntax can in some cases look a bit off-putting (like the || capture) but…
This pun made me happy and sad at the same time.
I am basically a long-time lurker, and recently decided to make an account here. Basically, for me, i just wanted to have the ability to kind of 'boost' posts i thought were interesting / informative and i want those…
My 2 cents to this as a helix user. 1. it's just nice to see your selection before u do any action. 2. There's not benefit to the new model, either you like it more or like it less, why does everything have to give a…
If i am not mistaken, that's one of the larger selling points in Favour of Zig, isn't it? I am pretty sure the C/C++ capabilities will stay in the Zig toolchain for a very long time :)
tbh, i don't even think that promotion a product based on their language is a selling point (unless it's a lib of course!) But this whole `built with X` is in my opinion just some 'i try to appear cool by using x…
