  • What's your experience with Nim?

    Jump

  • I never understood why they don't add just a little syntactic sugar. You don't need much to take it from a mess of brackets to something comprehensible.

    It was in the original design, but not the first implementation. By the time someone got around to it, people where used to S-expressions.

  • I got to avoid memory management for quite some time

    Jump

  • I can't comment whether learning C first improves your rust, but it certainly makes you appreciate what the rust compiler does.Also learning rust improved my C.

  • If an animal gets shot with lead, survives and runs away, there is now a wounded animal or an animal carcass containing lead somewhere in the wild.If it is wounded or freshly dead a carnivore will eat it and accumulate lead. That may be large carnivore or a smaller carnivore that later gets eaten by a bigger one. Birds tend to have stronger stomach acid that most mammals, allowing them to dissolve the lead better.Vultures having it the worst as they will eat any carcass and have the strongest acid.

  • Same thing with lead shot accumulating in large birds.

  • Scientists unlock secret to thick, stable beer foams - Ars Technica

    Jump

  • only serves to make something pretty in an ad.

    A photographer I know mixed a different beer in, when the one he was supposed to photograph didn't foam properly.He also sprayed on the condensation so he didn't have to lug around a camping fridge

  • If There Were Robots That Made the Perfect Amount of Food for Everybody

    Jump

  • But it need some story, some kind of conclusions, be it humor, catharsis, a lesson or something else.It is built up like funny internet comic, but leaves the reader disappointed.

  • Where is the joke?

  • why are website language switchers in the current language?

    Jump

  • Unicode uses the ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 two letter county codes to avoid dealing with flags themselves.Those are designed for nation-states, and controlled by the ISO 3166 Maintenance Agency.

    Adding the British regions was a mistake imo.

  • Every damn time.

  • A researcher should offer a sufficient compensation package to get enough volunteers after explaining the risks.

    So the poor and desperate.

  • Every damn time.

    Jump

  • Yes, for mild winters and plentiful harvests

    Bastards, we need harsher winters over here. Otherwise the moskitos and invasive species get even more numerous.

  • Archeology LFG!!

    Jump

  • One day you will be able to circumnavigate the great wall of the Netherlands by boat.To visit you take a elevator down from the water line to the bike rental.

  • Rust

    Jump

  • C++ already has much more of the required language constructs, which is why there is already an attempt to add borrow checking to C++ called circle. Until that standardizes, I wouldn't expect it in C.

  • Announcing Rust 1.89.0

    Jump

  • You can already :

      rust
        
res_res??;

    I think it's more for cases where you don't want to return, like

     
        
let new_res = old_res.map(func).flatten();

  • Handling of unlikely syscall errors

    Jump

  • I think you should make the overwhelmingly likely case crash in a controlled way, but provide a way to handle it for people who truly want to keep going in such strange conditions.

    In rust I would panic in now(), but also provide a alternative call that returns a result named something like try_now(), similar to Vec::with_capacity and Vec::try_with_capacity.In languages that provide them, you could also throw a runtime exception that can be ignored and just bubbles up to main unless explicitly caught.

  • We Asked 100+ AI Models to Write Code. The Results: AI-generated Code That Works, But Isn’t Safe

    Jump

  • If a system was made to show blogs by the author and gets repurposed by a LLM to show untrusted user content the same code becomes unsafe.

  • Use this information wisely

    Jump

  • As if a white space sensitive language protects from this fuckery.

    • How many thin spaces are one level of indentation?
    • Will anyone notice a hair space?
    • Who can tell the difference between a space and a figure space? they are the same size in a mono spaced font

  • Replication of Quantum Factorisation Records with an 8-bit Home Computer, an Abacus, and a Dog
