would it be better if they didn't skip the hard part? (i.e. if they re-designed it from first principles) does something being hard to do make it more virtuous? would it be better if they didn't have fun coding it? is…

if you use ublock origin you should be OK, it warns you when you try to access lubuntu.net
I remember someone making a card game GALGA [1] in Haskell and compiling a high-level "rules" DSL to a low-level "animation" DSL and "primitive" DSL for handling animations and state changes respectively. [1]…
funnily my friend just discovered that you can split it into thirds a few day ago and now does it whenever he eats a banana
list languages and array languages are quite different. in LISP, the lists are heterogeneous i.e. each element can contain different types, which is also how you can e.g. make a tree out of lists in LISP. typically in…

The point is that the first list is a series of (flawed) reasons that the author, and probably many others, have been discouraged from blogging. And even if you know they're flawed, it can still get in your head and…
Lojban[1] is a constructed language which is (or tries to be) syntactically unambiguous. Of course even fewer people speak Lojban than Esperanto, but there's still a sizable community. [1]:…
just give me the NSA putting backdoors in my chips rather than this two-faced nonsense.
Sure, just make the fields of the struct private and you can make a public constructor: https://doc.rust-lang.org/rust-by-example/mod/struct_visibil...

What is stopping someone from publishing SNKRX to a site like itch.io and selling it for 1€ instead? And if nothing is stopping it, why hasn't someone done it yet (that I know of).
I'd like to present a counterexample: SNKRX[1]. It costs 3€ and is under the MIT license, you can find it on github[2]. It sold >100,000 units[3], and AFAIK no one's massively undercut the author. I guess he's kind of…

it sounds like the danish word for carrot: "gulerod" which translates to "yellow root".
the actual copying isn't a problem, it's distribution. if i buy access to a PDF i'm not going to get in trouble for duplicating the file unless i send it to someone else. when someone uploads their copyrighted text to a…
Wow, I do something similar, however it is much more limited in scope (and all on pen & paper for now). I also share the author's last name.
is any rust code some way immune to unsafe blocks?
