What do you mean? C is unsafe 100% of the time. Rust is only unsafe in unsafe{} blocks.

Nonsense, Rust has plenty of native libraries for HTTP and JSON.

Whenever I hear "It's never too late to do X", I can't help but think "Well in this case, there is no harm in waiting a bit longer, is there?".

On Windows, I use AltDrag.

XCode has been trying to unleash agentic power for a while now, it's almost like it doesn't want to leave its cage.

Not mentioning the fact that Swift is nonexistent outside of the Apple ecosystem, and worse, Apple is explicitly not supporting it outside of the Apple operating systems.

Show, don't tell. If you need ten pages to explain your project and even after I read your description, I'm still left confused why I need it at all, then maybe... I don't need it?…

I mean, Gas Town is 100% vibe coded, and its very own author says AI can't be trusted to write reliable code. Draw your own conclusion.

Switch to Android and you should be safe.

> It is not possible to say which exceptions are possible So repeating the same mistake that Spring made by using runtime exceptions everywhere. Now you can never know how exactly …

I think OP was just making a comment on the asymmetry of the syntax. Brackets [] are usually used to dereference. Why is this written lea eax, [rdi + rsi] instead of just lea eax, …

What strange choices. For example, to express the sum from i=1 to n: sum_(i=1)^n Why use the exponent sign to indicate the upper limit? Am I taking crazy pills here? How about usin…

I really like IDEA's .http files [1] Very similar idea as Bruno: everything is configured in text, which I always find myself more productive in that full blown GUI where I need to…

The reason why Apple didn't go bankrupt is not because Jobs brought NeXTStep, but because Bill Gates gave them money months away from having to shut down.

It kinda did, though. The Amiga with its revolutionary coprocessors (Denise, Agnus, Paula) was a game changer. However, id Software taught the world that the important part of the …

Just Rob Pike expressing to the world how ignorant he is of programming language theory that was discovered after 2000.

The first time I saw this trick was with ProDOS on the Apple ][, circa 1983. ProDOS came up with this new call syntax where the parameters to the API follow the call to it. For exa…

FYI Swift did this years ago.

You're assuming the Moon is traveling toward that specific system... It's going in a random direction, and probably in a straight line. Statistically, even at light speed, they wou…

The problem with Python (and dynamically typed languages in general) is not so much knowing the language, but understanding the code that people write with it. Since there are no t…
