    I really like in Rust how you can reinit a variable with a different type e.g. “let rect: Rect = rect.into();” It’s just so damn useful and I’m not sure what the downside is, it su…

    Nah that editor is much better if you're just using Python, but vscode imo is better for polyglots, the experience and keybinds stay the same across languages once you work out `ta…

    vscode is an incredible piece of software, better than all the paid options in my opinion, the amount of features they pump out month to month is outstanding, just a bit slow due t…

    My company runs everything on AWS lambda, I’ve worked on Lambda with Go, Python and Typescript before this, Rust is by far the best experience I’ve had. Async works great, it’s def…

    The point is though as OP said, all the pieces are in place, it only takes one crazy person or government to give something like this access to actually act out the things it’s say…

    It’s the fastest gaming chip now, but not sure a 0.5% to 1.5% improvement over the standard 13900K warrants an “insanely fast” tag

    sccache works really well and there’s only two steps to install it and enable it globally, speeds up compilation time a lot as well: https://github.com/mozilla/sccache

    I have Asahi Linux installed on mine, it works great including the GPU, I’m mainly developing for ARM64 AWS Lambdas now as well so it’s nice having the same arch. Some things are s…

    Still, how much they pay their developers a year? Would be over $150k I imagine, drop him $10k which he deserves and a sincere apology and we never would have seen this article, th…

    I still really like Python for scripts and small programs, but I’m always going to use Rust now for CLI’s or anything larger, I get the problem you have with it, but the trade off …

    It’s funny when someone is parroting the doom and gloom they hear from mainstream media, and you point out something like how world hunger and poverty is at an all time low, the st…

    I hopped jobs to go from using Go to Rust, I was sad and bored, now I'm happy and energized. Always going to be things you dislike for sure, but life's to short to be using a langu…

    I worked for the three largest mining companies in the world, and a much smaller miner before that. The small company had 1 geologist, 1 mining engineer, 1 general manager and an o…

    I'm also interested in this, the segmentation faults Primeagen found in Bun were concerning: https://youtu.be/qAYFepR4GcE?t=370 might have been fixed by now though. I was seriously…

    What they did with Dota 2 was really surprising, the AI did a technique where if it was ahead it would go behind the enemy tower to get 100% of the gold while the enemy would strug…

    I've made contributions to Rust repos and it was a great experience, they helped me along and were very quick with responses. I never even considered it for Go because the communit…

    I like Lex, he's very open and wears his heart on his sleeve, he gets good answers sometimes because he's fearless with the questions he asks. His first intrview with Jim Keller is…
