    Which model are you using?

    Seems pretty cool. You should chuck a screenshot or two up at the top of the README

    You could say that about any game engine. Are you suggesting Bevy should try and not optimise performance because perf and fun are not correlated?

    I'm not an expert by any means but there are some papers exploring this using category theory.

    It's amazing how powerful and clean Postman and Insomnia both felt when they were young and followed such similar trajectories into bloat and UI-unfriendliness hell.

    Can anyone explain the use of ptrdiff_t instead of size_t (he has typedef'd "size" for ptrdiff_t) The macros are wrapping _Alignof and sizeof both which can't return non-zero numbe…

    I don't really understand why these kind of posts make it to the top page of HackerNews. Perhaps there is a bigger audience for this than you would think?

    This looks really useful! I've just started working on a (mostly pedagogical) little project making a chat server/client in C and started reading through Beej's guide to networking…

    I've only just dipped my toes into Elixir and Phoenix but so far really loving it. I feel like I've noticed it popping up on here way more often lately or is that just the ol' freq…

    I see. I wasn't aware that Nix was a build system and probably should have investigated a bit more before responding. Truthfully I don't use OCaml professionally but just in a hobb…

    I'm not very familiar with Nix but Dune is a build system not a dependency manager. You would need it regardless.

    Is there a way to have tabs at the top of the browser? I like that about Chrome on my tablet, I can just hit the tabs at the top to swap, whereas on Firefox you need to hit the Tab…

    That's awesome. I ordered an Orangecrab to start learning FPGAs with and it just arrived :)

    I'm curious what relevance NFL has to Hacker News. I'm aware this comment will probably be downvoted to oblivion but I'm okay with that, I'm genuinely curious what constitutes on-t…

    At least for me there's no way you could get buy in from others either work or friend groups without native built in screen-share which only just released a month ago or so in Elem…

    The Linux support on the Ox64 is supposedly pretty poor so far.

    Can't beat the build quality and performance of the Macbook Air M1 for the price and size in my opinion so I'm sticking with it for laptop. But as for "Desktop" I've almost fully s…

    Fantastic timing! I was just going to start looking into running Rust on Android

    I'd say one of the important ones for me is what are the mechanisms for retries under network loss or lack of connectivity in general. What is the behaviour/semantics of that? Can …

    You just summarised a bunch of information I could have absorbed from an article, and in this case a single comment on hackernews. Buying and reading a whole book for that level of…

    I'm completely over self-help books now. Why pay $20 to be taught that water is wet in 200+ pages. Exercise is good, drinking water is good, sleep is good, et cetera. The exact per…
