And they even made the C++ version more verbose than it should have been. Most people would write: class Person { int age = 0; }; I wish rust would make default struct field values this easy to write.

MS and Apple have the same thing, they're just less successful. Just a browser and an OS was previously seen as antitrust (and it looks like MS is being anti-competitive in this space still). Just a browser and a search engine can allo

A company owning a web browser isn't the problem. A company owning a web browser, OS and search engine shouldn't be a problem either. I don't know why the remedy can't actually address the problem, and the DOJ can't

If you could pipe the ripgrep output into an editor, make changes, and have them applied, that would be great. Once you get all the text you want to change in one buffer, it should be easy to make repetitive changes quickly in your editor o

Lack of MRU tab switching and preview tabs are two reasons I haven't switched from sublime. Glad they are listening to requests.

No high ranking USG official should be using insecure communication channels, as it will inevitably lead to leaks that could damage the state (secret information). What Clinton did was dumb, but no one should have sent her classified emails

Maybe someone can chime in on why the standard library's std::function can't be implemented as efficiently as this library purportedly is.

This article seems to assume that problems in P are computable no matter the size. If it is shown NP=P, but the best algorithm we have is O(n^100), we still don't have a computer that can actually finish the computation.

Too many times I've 'solved' a Project Euler problem like this: 1. Write a program to solve the problem inefficiently. 2. Look up the sequence F(1), F(2), F(3) ... at oeis.org

This is one of the trouble spots I have with Go. Say I have 3 members that must be set, and 5 optional members. Go's solution is to make the 3 critical members private so that someone using this struct will probably figure out they sh

'Use tagged literals for struct initializations'... I'd rather the compiler help me make sure i've updated all uses appropriately when I add a new field.

Go's success has me confused. My team enjoys using Go, but to me it feels like i'm a prisoner. The designer's slavishly followed opinions are laser focused on reducing variation across go codebases. There's definitely

Something i've been using more lately is Ctrl-R + Register. Great for inserting text in command mode. For instance, you can do this to insert your recorded macro (if it's in register q) as a norm command: :norm Ctrl-R q

Mathematics is like a fractal, given some axioms it explodes into an infinite set of true equations. No one has to observe math for it to exist. I think our universe(s) could be the same way, given some natural laws, or equations, everyth
