  • GitHub Pages to Codeberg

    Jump

  • Github Pages supports Jekyll as a SSG out of the box.

    Any documentation or tutorial – official or otherwise – that simply skips on this is getting people's hopes up just to waste their time.

  • lib.rs has a special surprise when you search "twitter"

    Jump

  • Ohh, boohoohoo, what are you gong to do, cancel your lib.rs subscription?

  • What does everyone think of this new WIP language?

    Jump

  • Perhaps, the linked page just does a poor job of selling that.

  • What does everyone think of this new WIP language?

    Jump

  • As someone also working on a minimal programming language, I might share some of the values, but using Go as an implementation language is an immediate turnoff.

    Also, not having a single code example on the linked page is super-annoying.

    People need to stop that.

  • Linux 6.17 Getting More Rusty With Many Rust Language Additions

    Jump

  • Incorrect.

    Rust is not a functional, let alone functional-first language.

  • Microsoft suddenly bans LibreOffice developer's email account, blocks appeal

    Jump

  • Surprisingly, the beaten spouse does not plan to abandon their significant other in the foreseeable future. They stated that expertise in receiving a black eye is still valuable in the domestic violence sector.

    This you?

  • Surprisingly, Kaganski does not plan to abandon Windows in the foreseeable future. He stated that expertise with the world's most popular operating system is still valuable in the IT sector.

    In this case, he needs to stop the fucking whining then.

  • Unpopular opinion: 95% percent of all modern programming langueges are either bloated/proprietary/unneccesarily complex. pretty sure C & assembly can do it all (even for web development,

    Jump

  • Your opinion is unpopular, because it is wrong.

    No normal person would think of C when told to imagine a language that is not bloated and not unnecessarily complex.

  • \Device\Afd, or, the Deal with the Devil that makes async Rust work on Windows (2023)

    Jump

  • And all of this due to the mistaken design decision to stick with the obsolete readiness-based model instead of going with the superior completion-based model.

    (You can build a readiness-based API on top of a completion-based API, but not the other way around.)

  • Worktrees: Git's best kept secret (and why you should use them) | Tom Ups

    Jump

  • git worktree is just so much easier to work with if you want to work on multiple versions or branches of some code.

    It allows having multiple IDE instances open, all fully functional and indexed, and handing over commits from one worktree to another without having to fetch constantly in between.

    Trying to emulate this with multiple clones feels like trying to do OOP in C -- sure one can do it, but it's pointless hassle compared to a fleshed-out solution that works right out of the box.

    Not to mention it's so much faster and more efficient than git clone.

  • is it worth learning golang?

    Jump

  • What a confused post.

  • is it worth learning golang?

    Jump

  • There is not much to learn, so just do it? It's not a relevant investment that would require much thought.

  • Library Design: Naming Conventions – Option & Result

    Jump

  • Yeah, avoids pointless debates whether they should be lined up in matches or not. :-)

  • Library Design: Naming Conventions – Option & Result

    Jump

  • Many languages' Option and Result types suffer from an organically-grown and therefore inconsistently named set of functions that operate on them.

    We can do better! The article demonstrates how a full set of useful methods with predictable names can be derived from few, simple rules.

  • Why the Linux Kernel Should Stick With C

    Jump

  • Absolutely delusional.

    code that is readable, auditable, and easy to port

    Yeah C is the language that comes to everybody's mind reading that. /s

    C's simplicity ...

    Is that simplicity currently in the room with us?

    ... and widespread adoption make it the best choice for this philosophy.

    Ah, the asbestos argument.

    If people want to run the latest kernels on hardware that isn't maintained anymore, they need to toughen up and send patches ...

    ... or they stick to an old kernel for their unmaintained hardware.

    Both is fine to me, but that entitled Boomer attitude of "nobody should have nice things, because that would challenge status quo" needs to die.

    Oh, why would that be? What a complete mystery! /s

  • As a fresh Graduate in computer science in 2025, I feel like I made a mistake learning full stack developement

  • Studying at a university is not a fancy job training.

    Do whatever pays your bills, and learn what interests you. Sometimes the latter will help with the former, but it would be silly to depend on that.

  • “apparently it’s a better safer C++, but I’m not going to switch because I can technically do all that stuff in C++”

    The main difference between C++ and D was that (for most of the time in the past) D required a garbage collector.

    So, D was a language with similar Algol-style syntax targeting a completely different niche from C++.

    Trying to correct your quote, it should read something like "I’m not going to switch because I can't technically do all that stuff in D that I'm doing in C++" for it to make any sense.
