I was also frustrated to find the examples weren't inline, but I think this is a guest blog post which makes it a bit more understandable.

I wonder if the author has heard of KDL: https://kdl.dev/

There's a fun RustConf talk on this topic from a few years ago. https://youtu.be/tNVDjMxCz-c

I've been using Delta for a few years now and absolutely love it. Huge improvement to my command line diff viewing!

It seems to me that the point of the article is that "all the demand" is not just for C++, C, Java, Typescript, Python, etc. There is increasing demand from larger companies for Ru…

That's the most constructive takeaway you have when looking at all their work? That's an unnecessarily limited view and doesn't add to the conversation. From my vantage point their…

If you like this you might also like Nick Fitzgerald's 2019 RustConf talk: Flatulence, Crystals, and Happy Little Accidents. https://youtu.be/Ho3xr4b60Zg

In truth, that's exactly what it is. My point in writing this wasn't to say "Ooh, look at Rust being so much better". The original PHP is wonderful and there is definitely somethin…

https://tuckersiemens.com Just a log of my personal journey through tech. I don't post much, maybe once a year, but I have fun maintaining it.

I think Gary Bernhardt's corresponding Boundaries conference talk [1] is quite good, particularly because of how pragmatic he is in introducing the topic. I have been thinking abou…

In case you haven't seen it already, Cliff Biffle's "Learn Rust the Dangerous Way" might be of interest to you. https://cliffle.com/p/dangerust/

https://tuckersiemens.com I try to keep it simple, HTML, Sass (but really just vanilla CSS), and no JS. I generate the site with Zola ( https://www.getzola.org/ ), which has been f…

Congrats to the release team! I'm really excited to work with the new structural pattern matching. This feels like the biggest language change since the addition of async/await.

Personally, I'd say it's worth it now. I've been dabbling in Rust for a few years and while I still don't get to use it at $DAYJOB it's been a huge benefit to me. Those "esoteric" …

Personally, I reserve "clickbait" for links with no substance or value on the other side of the click, but I understand what you mean. Yes, the intent of the title is to get your a…

Is this an intentional troll? The post explains why those results are meaningless in this context.

I generally agree that the web could be simpler. A lot can be accomplished with just plain ol' HTML/CSS nowadays. I think there's a kernel of truth in what you're saying about apps…

That might just come down to the usual differences between Python and Ruby. A Python programmer would likely appreciate an explicit call to `subprocess.run`. Some equivalent Python…

Nicer syntax? Vastly better standard library? Those seem like subjective statements to me. Can you provide some examples to support those claims?

I think that you can do something like this with VS Code's Live Share[1] feature. And I think it's possible to do read-only sessions as well. Been a while since I looked at that fe…
