> If you design a language that doesn't allow pointers to be shared across threads at all, then you wouldn't need a borrow checker. Is that actually true? I'm pretty sure you need …

> something as powerful as what I created Could you give us more detail? It sounds intriguing.

I don't follow influencers but my guess is that they already do this, at least they use filters. If someone can use all these tools to gain considerable amount of fame and fortune,…

Most functional languages parse a b c d e f as a(b, c, d, e, f), it does not matter what b, c, d, e, f are. Do you know any language where this is different?

I really believe this is the only way you can write good software. It's mind blowing to me that most people try to "figure out" the problems before seeing what it actually is. I al…

if you don't have memory issues in your code then either it's so small that everyone participating in its development can actually keep it in a perfect state or no one searched har…

Can you tell anything about that simulator? it sounds wild:)

I'm interested in your language ideas. Could you please share them with as much detail as you can/want?

I think the idea that the program can load files as code is insane in itself. There shouldn't be such a mechanism in an ideal world. The operating system would decide what you can …

I am not sure what kind of argument you would like, you are trying to redefine the word 'deterministic'. My argument is that it does not work like that. Just because we cannot pred…

I believe you are mixing things up. A chaotic system IS deterministic, it is just really hard to predict what it will do. The fact that we (or anyone) cannot predict what will happ…

>Rust is barely influenced by functional languages. That is arguable. Rust supports and in a lot of ways prefers functional solutions for problems, for example the iterator trait i…

I very much agree with you. Having some strange words in the middle of a large code that is mostly english is just, well, weird. I think inconsistency is a serious issue.

Technically, you are right, but if multiple processes use the same shared memory is there a real, meaningful difference? You can do efficient, parallel computation in a browser, do…

Hi, I am working on something similar, it's nowhere near usable but I hope that a proof of concept version could be ready this year. My variant is focused on visual programming wit…

I believe you can use this without touching Rust. If I remember correctly they even ran Dota2 with this. That certainly does not have Rust inside.

>It's been a great strategy for 30 years and I hope they keep at it. I wouldn't say that it's been great . The evolution of C++ is insanely slow.

In a sense we already do this. For example, every time you create a website in HTML/CSS and javascript, you use high level instructions and a lot of declarative stuff. It is alread…

I really hope when the time comes and someone reinvents the wheel and comes up with a new great OS, the new OS will NOT have signals. Those are one of the worst things ever invente…

> Is there any chance this tool can produce anything close to clean, safe, idiomatic, rust code? That is generally not possible, unless the C code only uses specific patterns known…

On some architecture int is 32bit while isize is actually 64bit so no, that translation is definitely not the ideal one.

> VR? Probably not. VR looks to be the next 3D TV. It's just too much of a hassle to go mainstream. I disagree, I think VR is going to be the next big thing but it will take a few …

The length of the string is included, so you know where it ends.

The instance can fetch the upgrade from the NFS mount and also work using the previous version when NFS is down. I see no problem here.
