@colingorrie Naïve question but really curious. Why do people need old English?

@ajsadauskas @molly0xfff as a coder i can vary loc for the task with 1000x difference

Why webassembly is a big thing?

Isn't js just compile with JIT ?

@engelbart I found the book Zero to Production in Rust (zero2prod.com/) a great 2nd step once I finished the Rust book. You get to build something - and get help along the way! #rust #zerotoprod

I hadn't considered how some of the semantics of Rust would make writing a good linked list library harder than usual. I'm also surprised there isn't one in the standard library. This post had a good coverage of the topic, from this non Rustian's perspective anyway. #rustlang #programming #rust diziet.dreamwidth.org/13476.ht…

Just finished reading the first book about .

Perhaps I need to implement something to memorize.

I've got an idea

I am a pretty slow, normal human being, nothing like a 10x young genius.

But I have almost 20 years of IT experience and some common knowledge of related things.

I'm thinking of streaming my attempt of implementing a service on a new for me language with the idea that there is nothing to be afraid of.

I will google something, copy paste, stuck with errors and think that I am hopeless for one minute and that I am a genius for another.

In other words it will be like "an usual Monday of a software engineer".

But may be the fact that eventually I overcome all these challenges will encourage someone not to be afraid.

What do you think? Stupid enough?

@travismitchell @pluralistic what about carwash? Shouldn't they have their own server as well?

Just watched "all the quiet on the western front".

Well, I liked it.
And I liked even more what they didn't show exactly but made us understand.

CW idiocracy 

"CW" virtue signalling is ridiculous.

I am dead, I can’t believe this AI intro text I just got. If you thumb through it, there are all the usual suspects like breadth-first search and probability.

Then you open the first chapter and it goes HARD on the current state of things.

Then it’s back to mathematical notation like nothing happened.

I'm impressed with the robustness of the mastodon-fediverse so far, under extreme duress.

kudos to the sysadmins
