Shopping in an IKEA - finally checked off my bucket list. Pretty much lived up to all of my expectations
...which mostly just supports my belief that awesome languages depend on being awesome in all of their facets, not just for small parts or for select use cases.

When I answer this for myself, I realized that while the borrow checking is important (and probably is responsible for my initial interest and the language's huge growth), a large portion of my ongoing enjoyment is creditable to how well Rust does all of the other listed items.

I'm curious, for people using #rustlang, how many people would still choose it over Go/C++ if it didn't have the borrow checker, but still had everything else (ecosystem, macros, pattern matching, zero cost abstractions, error messages, type inference, etc.)?

I guess each of these would have to be developed independently / possibly by hand, but could be a fun side project

Curious if there would be value in a tool that replaced third-party npm dependencies in a project used for data-heavy operations (text/stream parsing, etc) with faster WASM-based libraries abiding to the same, original APIs.

It's beautiful to see how the industry is shifting focus from infrastructure-centric to application-centric cloud programming.

#InfrastructureFromCode (or #IfC) is growing, and with it the various approaches startups are taking. We viewed the main ones with examples. If you're new to IfC, start here: klo.dev/state-of-infra @GetKlotho @encoredotdev @amptdev @winglangio @shuttle_dev @nitric_io

With all the cloud frameworks popping up, I can’t help but think they’re missing a very important point: setting up infra can be annoying but it’s not the hardest part of building an app anymore. Most time is still spent solving the business problem at hand.

Why do older languages (C, Java) tend to put return types at the beginning of a function signature, while newer languages (Rust, TypeScript) tend to put it at the end?

This is a major milestone! We know this is just a tiny little step towards cloud portability; but it always starts like that! ❤️ great job and welcome to the team!

really beautiful set of semantics! github.com/Kindelia/HVM/b
cool to see new life being breathed into something as accepted as the lambda calculus.
TL;DR by tweaking the rules to make term-copying & substitution cheap, you can make a much faster Haskell-like language runtime
Smart people ask dumb questions.

Even when I feel like I've discovered a niche problem in my work, it surprises me how I almost always end up discovering someone else has already solved the same problem or a close variation on GitHub.

Great blog post on the design of WASI and how it provides a secure and portable API interface across operating systems 👉 hacks.mozilla.org/2019/03/standa
What kinds of capabilities would you want in a set of portable interfaces or APIs over cloud providers? IAM? FaaS? Buckets? Queues?
