    xD Using the same module written in Rust, we can do even better on the same machine, 165k+ TPS.

    Excited to see where this goes. It's just the beginning!

    > I think they actually make a fair point because in this case "hard to do" probably equates to "makes the compiler a lot slower". They are wrong in this case. When considering whe…

    Off the top of my head: Poor error messages, any type checking is run on the generated code so harder to enforce properties, and if code generation is not in-language, then the bas…

    Thank you! I tried hard to make this blog post easy to read so it's nice that it feels that way. :)

    An interesting example is the addition of `{-# LANGUAGE LinearTypes #-}` to GHC. The primary interest for this "experiment" is not from academia but from industry (tweag IO). Anoth…

    Note that in Rust, `.match` would itself provide the general way: let number = foo.bar().baz().match { it => it + 1 };

    Comment #19640094

    I think it's not a good idea to talk about them as one thing and the use cases also differ. `const fn`s are deterministic ("pure") functions that can be evaluated at compile time i…

    I don't think the Go 2 generics proposal amount to type classes; From what I inferred from the proposal, contracts are structurally typed rather than nominally such that you don't …
