People don’t talk about quite much, when they talk about MGSV they talk about how insanely good of a stealth action game it is.

It can't do these things because it's not wanted. Say you have the following: enum Value { Float(f64), Ptr(*const T), } Do you want the compiler to disallow certain bit patterns in the Float variant simply so

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as GNU/Linux, is in fact, just Linux.

Not to distract from what is undeniably a pretty cool thing, it's hard to even call these "games" as there's absolutely no decision making going on. I absolutely loathe games like these because you're not actually d

I'm not really sure what position you're taking but taking a rake can certainly change the legality of an activity; in California, playing poker in private is considered a social game and is legal, _except_ if party is taking a ra

I'm not really arguing with your point, I'm correcting your incorrect description of what I'm saying. To argue with your actual point: I don't really care about the overall context, actively disallowing tests in a codeba

Did I say that my way was the right way? No: what I said was actively disallowing tests in every situation was the wrong way. There is no ability here for the cost benefit analysis to change over time. There is only no tests

A dictatorship? Are you being forced at gunpoint to talk to people? Perhaps more unsurprisingly, at the mere suggestion that socializing is good for you (it demonstrably is https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11403

Talk about Poe's law. I know what ECDSA is and if you brought it up in a random conversation unprompted I'd try to find your spaceship so I could escape the conversation on it.

I think people underestimate how pragmatic meta programming can be because there are some obvious downsides. Arguably one of things that made Rust so popular was its inclusion of procedural macros. But beyond that the thing I don't und
