So many interesting findings in the post. The tantivy binary search & rust binary search only has one different at the end, knowing the size of the slice ahead of time, right? Could the rust compiler infer the size ahead of time?

I am all for the Go idiom that variable name length should be directly proportional to it's scope, the code samples in the post have take it a bit too far and make the code harder to read. it would be so much more readable if the struc

Sometimes it's not about show how smart they are, developers aren't clear about the code they are writing. when I write code for a concept i don't understand completely, it tends to be complex and cryptic. I'll go back t

They are important in Haskell because they allow "real world" tasks to performed and give the ability to reason about functions. They are _useful_ for non-pure function programmers because it's a tool in the tool box which ca
