Sounds like a great way to get dozens of dependencies before you even write a line of code

And then bisect fails because it finds one of the many commits that broke the test before the actual regression

by assbuttbuttass 2mo ago
Suppose we have a failing test. For many commits, gp carefully separated their change that would break our test, from the change that would fix the test. At some point, someone forgot to run the tests, and introduced a commit that broke the

Of course, but this thread was in the context of someone "carefully curating" their git history

That sounds like it would break bisect

Hmm I wasn't familiar with join, but it looks like you still need join + fmap for the construction? I believe fmap would also need a generic method

by assbuttbuttass 4mo ago
It's (sadly) still not possible to express monads with this change, since generic methods can't implement interfaces. You'd probably want something like: type Monad[T any] interface { Bind[U any](func(T) Monad[U

I really want to like Helix, but I wish the developers paid more attention to performance, or were more receptive to outside contributions. Helix can really chug, even on small files, and the perception in the community seems to be "it

Which aspects of Rust syntax are adapted from ML? Semantics sure, but to me the syntax seems a lot more similar to C++ (e.g. semicolons, type parameters using <>, etc.)

I fixed an almost identical bug at work a few months ago: an internal service was calling some network device, and would only fail for IPv6-only devices. Turns out it was trying IPv4 first, and then when it failed, it would retry the reques

At least for the Spanner DB, it's good to have a randomly-distributed primary key since it allows better sharding of the data and avoids "hot shards" when doing a lot of inserts. UUIDv4 is the typical solution, although a bit

One cool thing about J (or any APL language) is that LLMs absolutely cannot write J code, so the whole thing feels like a breath of fresh air from the usual LLM slop

Very interesting to see the ML influences like ~ for unary minus, unscoped enums, mut on specific struct fields... It seems like over time, a lot of that was replaced with C++-style syntax and semantics. Presumably to make the language appe
