I love how the punchline of the article is, "if you are in management you can stop these people!". But 98% of people in management are these people. The remaining 2% are on the sho…

This is why stratagems like quiet quitting exist.

We'd probably be good on a team together. Nice to see like like-minded people in here.

Respect? In 2023? Think that died for profit in 2010.

I'll take obvious jank over hidden jank any day personally.

The value of human life in most places is exceedingly low. In the US if a company kills ya due to an OSHA violation the company pays something like 35,000 to OSHA. I imagine that's…

Look I'm only for it if someone is making some money here.

Lol "dear free laborers your code must be flawless or you will be sued"... Hmmm sooo... About changing my hobbies...

You don't have to clone... Really you don't. If you want fast rust code, learning how to avoid that is probably step 1.

Just practice. Screw all the "how to learn x" grind culture stuff. Just download it. Build a project with it. Read other people's code. Rinse and repeat.

It's a jack of all trades but a master of none. Nothing wrong with that until there is. Then you end up with two languages. This works fine for a while. Until you need 3... Next th…

I know where you're at because I used to feel the same way. But what if rust was designed to make manual memory management as painless as possible? IE, it's the antithesis of a lan…

Is it obscuring the logic to explicitly handle the cases where an item may not exist, or to tell an engineer when they are copying memory? In my opinion it's the opposite.

Orders of magnitude slower with few options for improvement except writing in another language in a lot of cases.

That's wild. First time I saw a match case, if let, and matches! Invocation I was freaking relieved. No by hand type checking in a dynamic language, having to consider corner cases…

Infact... Early stages of a project should make heavy use of owned and cloned types while you figure out the bottlenecks and work out how to architect the solution.

Isn't it just "go mod install" or something? Oh you probably tried it when golang changes where it cached packages. I feel you that was a super crappy time to learn Go.

You probably shouldn't deal with lifetimes outside of first order use cases in 9/10 cases when a project is in its early stages. A clone or wrapper type isn't all that expensive in…

Hard agree here. Once people understand rust, not read some bullet points on a blog they start to understand how useful even the tooling is. Only thing I'll add is. 8 times out of …

If you spent more time with rust your opinion of it would change. It's strength has nothing to do with rewriting software. It's easy to maintain, and pretty fast to write. I prefer…

Yea like the ones where we throw an entire AWS server room to try multiple random seeds, using gradient descent until it works, but honestly a RNG might work just as well, in a few…

Aren't these two things directly related in a lot of cases? Or is the only reason they often aren't because "AI" is completely unregulated in the US?

That's hilarious and absolutely true. I think he omitted a few shadier things too.

In ML people don't read the literature, establish precedent or even formulate sound hypothesis'. Why this got posted here, I'll never know... Oh wait I know, next week someone will…

Let me ask you this though, is it more profitable?
