I personally love watching the live coding sessions by Andrew Kelly, creator of Zig, regarding progress with the language/compiler. Archived videos available on Vimeo https://vimeo.com/showcase/7818787
I personally use Setuptools (.py and .cfg) with pyproject.toml for the build settings. Last I used poetry was a couple of years ago, and IIRC it didn't gel well with Conda environments.
Well, the author did post the entire email thread (redacting information that may be proprietary) on Imgur. Personally, I think the Replit CEO could have explained what the specific issues were before threatening to…
> Part of the function of time is to filter out the timeless from the merely timely This is such a beautiful observation. As a kid, I wasn't into "old" fantasy and scifi, but recently have started reading them. And I…
If you loved Tales Of Earthsea, you _must_ read the last book in the Earthsea Cycle: The Other Winds. It takes a very introspective approach to the notion of mortality and immortality, which ties in with the importance…
I suffer from severe depression in general and social anxiety around more than a handful of people, and have talked to therapists regarding this. One huge benefit of therapy is that I was quite quickly able to answer…
I loved the DMT story, and I would love to know more about this Owl drawing tutorial you recommend. :F
In most cases, what you are looking for is a language server like `clangd` (works for most compilers) [1]. You can find a Language Server Protocol implementation for your editor at [2] (I don't think it lists __all__…
If the issue is with including transitive dependencies that are in your own codebase, then you should annotate the public interface header to the implementation details with IWYU Pragmas [1] that export the…
I've found that using IWYU Pragmas [1] for codebases you own and IWYU Mappings [2] for third-party libraries __almost__ entirely eliminates weird IWYU suggestions (there are a few annoyingly stupid suggestions from the…
While I agree with a lot of the points that the author is making (especially #5 regarding major labels feeding into the "viral hits" hype), I feel like the author is discrediting a lot of musicians that actually care…
As an ex-Sublime and ex-VSCode user, I realized that macros and Visual Block mode covers all my use cases for multicursor functionality.
This is a great point. Personally, the only reason I would want to switch to Emacs is Org mode but the muscle memory for custom Vim and Tmux keymaps is hard to give up.
The Rust rewrite of Coreutils (this post essentially) _is_ meant to be a drop in replacement for GNU/Coreutils. OTOH, ripgrep and fd are not "drop-in replacements". Rather, they are "replacements" that devs can use if…
I think the whole point of picking a language standard is to prevent the "space vs tabs" debate. Andrew is trying to standardize the language formatting issues, similar to tools like `rust fmt`, `gofmt` and `black`. The…
Doesn't seem to work on Firefox mobile.
I came here for an intelligent discussion on why this article seems like some sales/marketing nonsense, but stayed for the Reddit-like quips.
(On the phone so forgive the possible typos) I am not sure (1) is a very convincing argument. The subtraction of 1 internally is not necessarily gonna be there once the code gets compiled. I will personally concede with…
To me, it doesn't seem like it is LLVM doing the heavy-lifting as much as Docker/Podman (which are used through Cross). Maybe I am missing something... I definitely agree with you that Zig and Go handle cross-compiling…
I am not sure if you read the article in it's entirety. The author's point is the exact opposite: while Ubisoft developers are ok with burning churches (which magically restore themselves), they do not show any of the…
This is sooo true. I realized that there are actually some subreddits that are well moderated, and toxic stuff is quickly removed. I also made it a point to stop browsing Reddit at the first comment that is either…
I am an avid (Neo)vim user. I love it and have been using it for the last 4-ish years. I know it's not a lot, but I _am_ in my early 20's. :D I started coding only during my undergrad (computer engineer), so first…
I personally use Flatpak for Discord and Slack. I used to have issues with my package repositories not being up-to-date too, but this is much more convenient.
This is true for Autotools projects, but isn't true for CMake, Bazel, Meson, and others. Let's take CMake for example, which is IMHO the most popular build tool: most modern CMake projects prefer to use the Ninja build…
All the things you mentioned can be found in Zig! [1] It's exception semantics are very similar to Go, but unlike Go, you have to handle the error. It has constructs like `defer` and `errdefer` which allow you do clean…
