The Zig project has also left GitHub relatively recently https://ziglang.org/news/migrating-from-github-to-codeberg/
If you haven't already I'd check out Zig. It does what you're describing if I am understanding correctly. There are some choices in that language I find annoying, but maybe you'll still enjoy it
I've gotten into pinball the last year and also love the ones you listed. Some of the newer machines I've had a blast with include Stern's Godzilla, Ghostbusters, and 007 machines
I don't think RTO and "serious about work" are directly proportional. Some people are much more productive away from a noisy and distractive environment. I think it just depends on the person
For me it was pointers. I used C throughout college and I never really grokked the "address to a value" description, but one day it finally just clicked and now I love pointers
I'm not sure why you're being down voted. This is my exact use case as well. For what I do (front end development) it's incredibly nice to have a Linux command line for most things. I'm stuck on Windows due to legacy…
Most recently I think the spirit of this kind of device has been captured in the Playdate (https://play.date), but you're right that there are no new handhelds from the big companies
I actually loved Helix, but moved from it to Neovim for performance and customizability reasons. Helix becomes unusable with multi thousand line files, but I imagine it's something that will eventually be solved as the…
Do you have an example where adding a function to the std library broke existing code? I wasn't aware this was possible
Yeah I could see that. It seems nice and simple at a glance, but I remember some of the lifetime requirements being incredibly strict and hard to work with
I just started looking at `vulkano` this week and have found it pleasant to work with so far. Do you have examples of high level graphics libraries that you consider poor quality?
To piggyback off this, another reason that I think software freedom is valuable is community support. Things like LSPs, syntax highlighters, and that sort of support doesn't have to wait on JetBrains to integrate it…
I strongly agree. I thought I would have this same feeling with Rust way back when I first learned about it, but the more I use Zig and Rust, the more I prefer the former for systems programming
Who would you consider good DNS hosts? I'm looking at setting up a static site and am new to the whole process
Amid Evil, Ion Fury, and Dusk are all great. Great recommendation with Hrot. It looks to me like a mix between Quake and Half Life
What politicking are you referring to?
Ah, meant to say "without the standard library." My bad
I've been playing with Rust myself in my free time, and if you use Rust with the standard library a stripped executable should be smaller and more comparable to C than what you're seeing with the standard library…
I felt the same way. I ended up setting firewall rules for Minesweeper because there is absolutely no reason for it to be calling out to the web for ads to serve. The game still works fine!
I had a similar experience with Spacemacs. I currently use regular Emacs with some packages (evil-mode) and find it much easier to deal with and configure than Spacemacs. Emacs does take some additional configuration…
This is so cool! I'm really impressed with what I've seen out of Zig so far. I need to come up with a project to try it out with. It seems like a great successor to C
Really well done! This is a very great idea and well executed
This book is a great resource for thinking about how to optimize your code. And while VGA programming is not as relevant as it was, I still found it really fascinating to read about. Plus, the chapters on Quake are…
That's a good point! This might be a good way to go about it
I use C a lot on my personal projects, and I have enjoyed learning Rust and playing with it to potentially replace my use of C. For the most part Rust has everything I want, but interfacing with C libs and headers can…
