    Yeah the cost of decentralization is so high that you really need to be gaining something from it. I’ve long said that if drugs were legal it would remove most of bitcoins usage. M…

    What a great statement, its not that they can't its that they don't want to use it. I really tried to like Julia, wrote it for months, but it misses the mark. I've been working in …

    Python — no threads, or built in types Julia — odd language R — not a general purpose programming language Most of the data scientist and ml engineers I work with want a new langua…

    yeah I keep up with the Linfra group, they are making steady progress. I hadn't seen SmartCore yet but that looks promising. I mainly use tch-rs which are just bindings around libt…

    Right because there are so many great existing options for ML

    Its useful for ML in that it requires so much optimization, that being about to drop down in the same language is incredibly handy. For ML software isn't lagging hardware its the o…

    It’s pretty ubiquitous among new developers but for working software engineers I think it’s uses are becoming limited. If you need a web server there are much better choices. Data …

    I use Rust for ML nowadays and I love it!

    There are a lot of people who are somewhere in between these groups and providing a language that goes up and down the stack well would be super useful. I agree it needs to be as s…

    Yeah Google really messed this up, they had a golden opportunity and they went the wrong direction. Julia would have been better but IMO they should have just created a new languag…

    Comment #26385998

    I share the exact same sentiment. I really tried hard to like Julia, spent months with it because of all the shortcomings of python. I submerged myself in its community, but at the…

    It makes things reproducible, and k8s is still containers just not docker

    I’ve been using the Rust wrapper over torch-lib for deep learning (tch-rs) and I absolutely love it. It’s way easier to use than torch-lib and you get all the performance. Unless c…

    So if humans are putting 38 billion tons into the atmosphere every year does this even make a dent?

    Its sooo many projects, if the argument is that c++ has all these libraries, thats mute, but again the c++ devs just think everything is fine!

    I guess I'll take Rust is my no good "editor" over c++ in a "proper IDE", don't think thats gonna sell most people

    Comment #24049935

    Yea agree, if your looking at it to just understand what writing a CLI in Rust is like, there are a lot of use cases in which a CLI can benefit from performance, but this isn't one…

    Comment #24049923

    Yea I would agree, Rust is imperative with some functional concepts baked in like a lot of languages have.

    This is the best I can find https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/using-api/api-concepts/ there used to be a better doc on this but I can't seem to find it again. Runtime scheme and…

    packaging == community and community is the most important aspect of a language. Yes c++ still dominates in accelerated computing but it won't for long. All these conversations I'v…

    In the modern world you should be able to grab things and quickly integrate them and see how they work as your prototyping projects. C++ doesn't conform to this model.
