I'm curious what you've found the troublesome subreddits to be. I think I have a pretty strong idea what they are, but some validation would be nice.

I'm completely alright with just having fun and hosting your own little sandboxes online, but what good does it do to post and share this with others in its current state? The pict…

This entire benchmark is frankly a joke. As other commenters have pointed out, the compiler flags make no sense, they use pretty egregious ways to measure performance, and ancient …

Imagine wanting tivoization. Horrifying.

> vlang is really fast, recompiling itself entirely within a couple of seconds. Does V still just output C and use TCC under the hood?

That might be the case in C land, but C++ land usually has a lot more stuff in headers. For examples, templates are not very useful unless they're defined in headers.

>Users ... want a snappy interactive UI with lots of animations to get the "vibe" right [citation needed]

There's nothing contradictory here. Not once do I say that I've found the best solution. I merely reached a point where more effort & time spent on this problem will only give me a…

I used to go through phases where I would try this. I gave Windows + WSL a shot. I gave embracing the Apple ecosystem a shot. I gave GNOME a shot. I gave KDE a shot. I was even cra…

The problem is that writing genuinely performant Java code requires that you drop most if not all of the niceties of writing Java. At that point, why write Java at all? Just find s…

While the meaning of "source" may be intuitively obvious, it's still relatively unfamiliar as "src" is far more prevalent than "source" when referring to source files. While "id es…

Have you considered that there are other metrics people are optimizing for nowadays? Perhaps typeability, screen real estate, familiarity/convention, etc.? Do you really want /User…

> the program is no good for me dead That may be true, but the program may actually be bad for you if it does something unexpected due to an unforeseen state.

I instinctively pressed ^W to delete a word and closed the tab. Nice.

It sounds like the sort of compile-time code that you're talking about is closer to "buildtime" code in Zig, that is Zig code compiled for the host platform and executed by the bui…

Hardly fair to call it a murder-suicide. Ramazan killed Emine in self-defense.

You would only ever do all that if you had no clue what you are doing (and most don't). It's rather trivial to bypass modern kernel anticheats, especially with a hacked up KVM or c…
