See the reply to parent. For a hobby project I think it's an interesting experience to try. Especially if you also intend to write a back-end in Rust. But for production use, and p…

It's not easy to separate WASM specifically from Rust, and also hard to separate Rust from seed-rs, the UI framework we're using. But as far as problems with all of them together, …

What are we supposed to be competing for? Reason is a tool that makes different trade-offs than some other tools. These trade-offs might work for you or they might not. It all depe…

Unfortunately not. It's an inseparable part of the Reason syntax. You can however use either the desugared form: ([@JSX] div(~foo=bar, ~children=[child1, child2], ())); Or a prepro…

I think what @chenglou was referring to are issues like the "value restriction" [1] and the need to wrap "uncurried" FFI functions with a function that "adapts" it to curried form,…

Good to see bors[0] getting some well deserved credit. That guy's a beast! [0] https://github.com/bors

Great, that's actually useful information. But you could have safely skipped the "first!" comment. Being first does not make you any more superior in the front-end world than it do…

Please stop the fanboyism. OP did not say there was anything wrong with Vue, but asked if there was any specific reason it was chosen, and suggested they try something that comes w…

He does suggest a solution, it's just not an easy one. But it is simple: Organize and get shit done. He often uses the womens liberation movement, civil rights movement and anti-vi…

But even then the protocol is hidden, so still not the full website address. Much better though. Thanks for the tip!

Don't you think the owner of this deserted island with enough resources to live on might at some point object to you being there and force you off his land? There is no living outs…

Sure. I think it's more prevalent among Go zealots, probably because so many were lured into it by the inital hype, but it's not at all Go-specific. Another example is the hype and…

I don't dislike Go. I just think there are zero use cases where Go is the best choice. But what I do dislike is when people try to hype and con others into adopting a language to j…

What if you can't understand the logic of the compiler, and therefore aren't able to write any code in the language at all? Sure it's not very error-prone, but it's also not very u…

Compare a hammer and nails to a nailgun with various safety mechanisms. Which one do you think is easier to understand, and which is more prone to sore fingers?

I'm not the parent, but my impression is that Go is productive more in the sense of quantity than quality. It is easy to pick up, understand and use. But it is also very error pron…

1. Rust was designed for low-level systems programming, and in particular the multi-threaded kind, where performance and memory control are important. So things like web browsers (…
