These are both big motivations but not the only ones. But there's still play. There's still curiosity. And there's still the drive to understand something for yourself.

I've been using rust since 2017 and still code in it professionally and am a fan. Moonbit is pretty cool too so I thought I'd mention it for other people who like cool things.

I'd argue for moonbit -- faster compile times, almost as fast, smaller wasm artifacts and like lean can have proof of correctness built in.

I think this is only a partial answer but I've been surprised by how familiar dev leads become with the app even if they are not in the code. They tend to stick around and they engage in the problem solving on a higher level and develo

I think evals are the key here. If your fable system fails them, it's a bad system for your use case. If not, compare cost with other systems that also succeed.

To me this doesn't seem like a disaster but just the kind of thing that happens as you role out a service and expose it to new challenges. Presumably they haven't had the chance to do a lot of flood training but now they have that

I hadn't even thought about these -- inspecting and deleting from the TUI makes a lot of sense.

Thank you! Good question. I haven't done any work yet to make this fast so it might not be too quick...

My kids and I have been playing this for about 20 years. It's worked on Linux, Mac and Windows and has never stopped working. In the meantime so many other favorite games have disappeared or become obsolete. There's no absolute re

A couple of months back I was looking for a fun quick project and also was having space issues on my Mac. So github copilot and I wrote a little disk usage exploration tool in rust with very few dependencies. It's called "syz&quot

My son just started using 2B on his Android. I mentioned that it was an impressively compact model and next thing I knew he had figured out how to use it on his inexpensive 2024 Motorolla and was using it to practice reading and writing in

Don't love touchscreens that much. But I did love my Toshiba Satellite. It was like writing on paper! Down with capacitive screens and long live Active Digitizers!

Had a broken key on my m2 air that I couldn't easily fix. Took it to an Apple store and a tech worked on it for a bit and came back with it fixed. No charge. I was pretty grateful!

I've been building a flutter django app around sharing and using checklists. I use it myself by iterating on checklists and then tracking my usage of them and recently added orgs for privately shared checklists. So it's easy to cr

Often on HN the comments are a better read than the original article. This time the article is so good -- clear, funny, succinct, accurate -- that it's a better read than the comments.

Project Euler was what I used to get comfortable with my two main languages -- first python and then rust. I loved to solve it and then look through all the different solutions and find pretty ideas and idioms.

Sounds like we need either a viable alternative or a next thing. The next thing will probably be AR glasses and we could use some alternatives to Meta and Google and Apple.

If a friend told me they liked Rust but didn't like the borrow checker, I'd probably point them to Gleam and Moonbit, which both seem awesome in their own niches. Both have rust-like flavor and neither has a borrow checker.
