    Go 1.18 added generics to the language. This allows you to have your types take types as parameters so that you can create composite types (types out of types). This lets you get a…

    Client-side analysis allows the game to identify unauthorized access to game state, which is the root cause of most cheating (probably not going to prevent computer vision aimbots …

    > I would probably not be hiring software engineers to write a programming language that's not even used for the core product. Rust is used in Firefox

    100% agree, people like this guy are despicable.

    If you have a different opinion, then you're probably not looking for advice. This guy is writing a comment for people that don't know what the purpose of life is exactly, and who …

    Incoherent headlines, a major indication of age-unrelated brain deterioration.

    Risk vs reward, you probably _can't_ get a "career changing" course without making it too difficult for some people.

    Yeah, my question is, what's the best direction to go in: 1. Continue trying to create error-handling systems for devs 2. Try to solve this with more generic static (or dynamic) an…

    People offended here are exactly the bubble of entitled morons in Silicon Valley that this guy is talking about. I totally agree with everything he said, companies where you have t…

    Yeah that's exactly right, it's an event loop. It's hilarious to me that it's hitting "1.0" now. I remember the original release ~4 years ago?? That was way before Rust even had as…

    I am a junior developer too. Questions like this are better suited to your manager. Mine gives me constructive feedback at regular intervals, and I also reflect on my own work and …

    Furthermore, it's gotten much worse in the last year. Now the government forces gym closures and discourages people from going outside or to the grocery store, practically forcing …

    Yeah, I'm so curious about what they were doing for the last 2 years. It seems like the artists have been working on the game for 5+ years: the world is huge and full of interestin…

    I've played ~20 hours on PC, and what I dislike most is the long, downright tiring dialog sequences. It's like, half of the game is just sitting there, watching a movie, where you …

    Yeah the way I see it, once someone makes an ultimatum, the relationship is destroyed, there's no trust. You can ignore the quality of her paper or the critiques from Google, they …
