Ahh! Of course! The problem with Concord was the price! That’s why no one cared during its free beta weekend!

IMO the best way to start in a new language is to rewrite some of your previous projects in that language.
I generally start out by rewriting a couple simple 1-3 function console apps, basic leet code stuff like; palindrome, fizzbuzz, reverse an array in place, etc, and some simple unit tests for them. Then I go ahead and rewrite some of my previous projects or uni assignments in that language.
At that point I generally have a good understanding of basics and have an idea of how to approach a new project. When I got to this point in rust I then started on threading, async, why it’s easy to return a String and an ordeal to return &str, etc.
Something I’ve always found funny about the “AI will replace programmers soon” is that this means AI’s can create AI’s and isn’t this basically the end of the economy?
Every office worker is out of a job just like that and labourers only have as long as it takes to sort out the robot bodies then everyone is out of a job.
You thought the great recession was bad? You ain’t seen nothing!

In the case of docker I’m already at the point where I no longer think it’s necessary. At my current job our stack is JS, PHP and Python. 3 interpreted languages, we then build on Ubuntu and deploy on Ubuntu. I don’t think our project really needs docker, even though it does use it. We also have wasm/wasi prepping to eat Docker’s lunch.
I’m not against immutable distro’s on principle. I imagine they still have some kinks to iron out, but I haven’t looked in on them for a while.
My opinion on these things is; if it’s a superior system, then it’ll become the new standard, that’s always what happens, and the naysayers are largely irrelevant. Just like computers, smart phones, the internet, etc.
I started learning Lua for a WoW add-on. Not even making my own add-on, just tweaking someone else’s.
Maybe this is a case of hindsight being 20/20 but wouldn’t they have caught this if they tried pushing the file to a test machine first?
If you look at projects in more popular languages like JS, Rust, Python. There is plenty of new blood in the contributors list. I won’t speculate as to why, but it looks like the new generation doesn’t like c and c++.
I think this is also backed up by the Linux kernel and thunderbird projects. Both are old c/c++ codebases and both have stated they are adopting rust in hopes of drawing interest (and contributors) from the rust community.
IMO, I’d say Dioxus is more of a portable front end framework. If you’re looking for an electron alternative i.e, something to run web applications like they are native apps, I’d recommend Tauri.
Also, this might be a bit out of date, but I believe Dioxus is using Tauri’s stuff under the hood. Although I heard this before the dev went full time on Dioxus, it could’ve changed, I know they have done a lot of work on it.
To do quick and simple explanations:
var test int = 0
assign an int, var = let in rust land
:=
This is basically an inferred assignment e.g.
a := "hello world"
The compiler will know this is a string without me explicitly saying
func (u User) hi() {}
To return to rust land this is a function that implements User. In OOP land we would say that this function belongs to the user class. In Go, just like in rust we don’t say if a function returns void so this function is for User objects and doesn’t return anything:
func (u User) hi(s string) string {}
If it took in a string and returned a string it would look like this.
map[string] int {}
I will give you that this syntax is a bit odd but this is just a hashmap/dictionary where the key is a string and the value is an int
Bruh, I do this all the time! Can’t solve a problem? Get up and walk around the house while I explain the issue to imaginary people!
I feel like helium works as well as helix. When I search Helix I don’t get the editor but if I search Helix Editor I will get what I’m looking for.
When I search Helium editor I don’t get any exact matches, but of course SEO is a dark and mystical art so your mileage may vary.
I like how at the start of the line it explicitly says “out of memory” but we’re just pretending this is some satanic bullshit.
She obviously read the error to find “kill process” and “sacrifice child” but still ignored the memory error

At work we have a lot of old monolithic OOP PHP code. Dependency injection has been the new way to do things since before I started and it’s basically never used anywhere.
I assume most people just find it easier to create a new class instance where it’s needed.
I’ve never really seen a case where I think, “dependency injection would be amazing here” I assume there is a case otherwise it wouldn’t exist.
From the way I’m reading it, it sounds like a super() call in a constructor must be the first thing you do or something you don’t do? I never knew that was a thing… Looking at my old java code, I haven’t written Java since I graduated, this does seem to line up?
I guess that’s meant to be 2025 since the graph is projected? Pretty funky screw up though.
I really don’t get it, I suppose the setting to auto fill common patterns on a form could be useful. But why do I care about an autocompleting textbox? Do you think I’ve never used a search engine in my life?
“You can turn it off”, “it’s an optional feature”, they didn’t even last a year! What ever happened to slowly boiling the frog?
