Cool to see this pop up today. I'm building a new language and just a couple of days ago the concept of guard methods came up as I was trying to tighten up equality semantics to be…

"can only be good" - you can't imagine ways in which they at least could be bad?

Please add Wasm support :) I'm making a whole new language to get around the problem you're talking about: it brings no runtime at all. One of my targets is a Sandstorm like system…

There is a significant difference between experiencing an apple through your own faulty senses and reading words from someone else who experienced an apple through their senses.

It's his blog. He can talk however he wants. You, however, don't have to read it.

This would be much better titled "Bluesky Acquires the AT Protocol Trademark"

LLMs have nothing to do with any of that.

This statement is just ridiculous: > Recently, there's a lot of talk about AI allegedly finding security flaws in software. That is an unsubstantiated claim. As such, it would need…

LLMs are fantastic at generating new languages given docs and examples.

Yes, this works if your RSS server has its own DNS record that you control, and is essentially what the Domain Handle -> DID indirection gives you in AT Proto. What Bluesky and AT …

I don't think it's misleading at all, the comment you're looking to is. People really do ask where "The AT Proto server is" as evidenced by this thread, and the really is no "AT Pr…

There is no "AT Proto server" - https://overreacted.io/there-are-no-instances-in-atproto/

And how does RSS let you move your data to a new host while preserving your identity like AT Proto does?

Yes, but no official builds yet that I know. This is a really important issue for online playgrounds and IDEs.

They shouldn't add the ternary operator, it keeps `?` from being usable on it's own for safe navigation and requires the ugly `?.` operator, like `a?.[b]` or `f?.()` instead of `a?…

So don't use compilers at all?

Do you think that once GCC gets a working Wasm backend[1], that it might be possible to build Linux for Wasm directly and skip the RISC-V VM? [1]: https://www.phoronix.com/news/GCC…

No, there are people who look at the better and cheaper housing the rest of world has and who want that for us too.

Being against bad housing regulations is not "anti-regulatory sentiment". Some regulations just aren't good. We shouldn't valorize rules for the sake of rules.

We need people to be less racist and stop voting for politicians they hope will hurt the right people.

You're supporting a company that makes a model that has been intentionally directed to think that white genocide is a major problem today. You do you, but that's a very morally imp…

Browser users. Pre Mv3 extensions were a huge vector for malware. My in-laws were hit by that.

[flagged]

Yeah, I think calling the Mv3 versions "secure adblockers" would be more accurate.

The speaker is right. Why should "system" interfaces and interfaces from other components ever be fundamentally different?
