I think it's important to note a couple of things about this. First, Casey offers refunds on the handmade website for anyone who purchased the pre-order. Second, the pre-orders were primarily purchased by people who wanted to get the i

Could you expand a bit on 'immediate mode design purity'? I've done immediate mode stuff from scratch and my experience had been "just write whatever code you need to get it to work," there hasn't really been a

This is not actually that difficult if you just want the basics. I have a project that implements just the x11 key & mouse events, and the shared memory extension in 400 lines of Rust. Was worth it for me since it eliminated dependency

Let's say I'm sorting some information about an event occuring in Florida, USA next year. It will be on July 4th at 3:00pm. I store this as an ISO string: "2025-07-04T03:00:00Z-5". Florida (and the USA as a whole) have b

Not sure if it could be extended here, but I've seen a lock free hash map that supported lock free reallocation by allocating new space and moving each entry one by one, either when the entry is accessed or in a separate thread concurr

I read this as mut1 and mut2 both being downgraded to shared references because they aren't used to mutate anymore. I'd imagine that's not what's actually happening though?

I use a similar technique for typing all the symbols. If I press f I get f, r gives me r, but if I press f and r at the same time with my left index finger positioned between the two keys I get $. w and s are {, e and d are }. All the other

Is this just an issue with the way the editor is presenting the LSP feedback to you?

I use an android (and iOS I think) app called Xodo. The "reader mode" re-flows the PDF into a screen-width single column like an e-book. The latest update really buried the option in the menus, but it's there somewhere and wo

Most teachers I know vastly prefer to grade on paper rather than digitally. Easier to just circle sections and write comments with a pen than deal with the review features in a document editor. I suppose they could print them out themselves

by jayshua 3y ago
Usually it's done so that the teacher can tell how long the paper is without counting words. Times New Roman at x pt with 1 inch margins fits a well known average number of words per page. The assignment will usually be "write x n

Yes, that's basically the rational that Jose Valim (or was it someone else?) gives when asked. I still document almost every defp function in exactly the same way I document regular public functions though. (Why is it here, how should

Idk, I think I still want them to be private. One example from just a few days ago was an ecto schema module that had a number of changesets. admin_changeset, director_changeset, manager_changeset, normal_changeset. Each one only differed f

I can still document them with regular comments, just not with @doc documentation "comments" because the compiler gives a warning that @doc can't be used on private functions. It just bothers me a bit that the stuff I'm

by jayshua 4y ago
My only complaint is that I can't document defp functions. Yeah, they're not part of the public API. But in my non-library application the next developer coming along might need some info, and it would be nice to have it work the

My experience has been due to the type system, I agree. (Also the compiler enforced semver.) I've never had the opportunity to use type script, so maybe it does offer similar benefits to Elm in that area. That's extent my personal

I maintain a 50,000 line elm app. It's not the most used app in the world - has between 50-100 users. But it has had a sum total of 2 bugs since launch - both logic bugs in some complex financial projections. Contrast with an elixir ap

I wonder if having only an IPv6 address would provide enough obscurity to be reasonably secure in this case? Or maybe those allocations are still to publicly guessable?

The type system can force you to handle both cases - the data being in the expected & typed form, and the data not being in the expected form. You would have a function like this: parseJsonString : String -> Result Error Person Where
