I think you are trying very hard to disagree on basic stuff that works very similarly across different language ecosystems, and (looking at other responses) that you're very angry.…

The Rust compiler/language has no notion of semver. Saying "Rust is unstable b/c semver blah blah" is a tad imprecise. Semver only matters in the context of judging API changes of …

I think we're mixing 2 things here: language backward-compatibility, vs. standard practices about what semver means for Rust libraries. The former is way stronger than the latter.

I think the precise pre-condition is that the theory should be recursive, which means either a finite list of axioms _or_ a computable check to determine whether a given formula is…

As other top-level comment indicates, this is debatable: https://github.com/xorvoid/meson-brainfuck/issues/1

I kinda recall some comments by pcwalton about APIs that would ameliorate context-switching costs at the kernel level: https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&que.…

I see, it seems we misread each other.

> The "working group" is some people on Discord Fair enough, we should correct our mention of WebDriver BiDi to "tentative standard". BTW, not sure if you hold some grudge against …

> Firefox has added support for some webdriver APIs[1] that this proprietary "WebContainers" product depends on Hi, WebContainers does not depend on WebDriver BiDi. We did mention …

hi HN, there's a companion technical post by yours truly which might be more appropriate/technically dense for your taste: https://blog.stackblitz.com/posts/supporting-firefox/ (I'…

I replied in a sibling, but anyways: I mean, I can also see that _on paper_, but by the same reasoning, MS would have never thrown away their engine.

As I said, I'd like that to happen, but I don't see MS being bothered by diverging priorities enough to fork after _throwing away_ a whole engine to avoid duplicating work. At leas…

Can you elaborate on what makes you think that? (I'd love it to happen, btw)

Pardon my ignorance, but is prop drilling a problem once you've bought into Redux or similar?

> The goal of every top-tier collider is new physics I would argue that the goal of a top-tier collider is to go to new energy ranges, plain and simple. Absence of new phenomena is…

Shameless plug: https://jrvidal.github.io/aes-demo/ I like this one better though.

I'm not sure that's correct. `UnsafeCell` is a Rust lang item that might disable some optimizations, I think? https://doc.rust-lang.org/src/core/cell.rs.html#1483

> The nice thing is that RefCell is not magic I'd like to point out that `RefCell` does contain a bit of magic, since it is based on `UnsafeCell`, which is _the_ core "primitive" o…

* How much is "way cheaper"? I've heard that VTC licenses are getting more and more expensive, around ~50K € (if I remember correctly). * What do you mean by "concentrated in very …

I think your fears are a bit misguided. WebAssembly runs within the same sandbox as JavaScript code. I don't see how this would constitute a _higher_ security risk than browsers as…
