Julia is another contender. Julia code can be as performant as C++ code, but Julia code may be even more elegant than C++. Even without accounting for Julia's metaprogramming features, the compile-time expressiveness is top-notch. It s

Yeah, double-word floating-point loses many of the desirable properties of the usual floating-point.

I don't think testing against every existing dependent would make sense currently. The issue is the lack of tooling for mechanically checking whether the dependent accesses implementation details of the dependency, in which case it wou

What I wanted to say is that I'm skeptical regarding "interfaces", either as a language feature or as a package. Although TBH I have not yet given any specific "interfaces" design more than a cursory glance, so my p

The Julia world is already quite careful with testing and CI. Apart from the usual unit testing, many packages do employ integration testing. The Julia project itself (compiler, etc) is tested against the package ecosystem quite often (regu

Julia is not without warts, but this blog post is kinda rubbish. The post claims vague but scary "correctness issues", trying to support this with a collection of unrelated issue tickets from all across Julia and the Julia package

Julia does this for parametric types, too.

> Recompiling everything every time. > recompilation on every run breaks this Your comment is exceedingly misleading. Whether and when Julia code gets compiled is up to the user.

> Pkg.jl is also not great, version compatibility is kind of tacked on and has odd behavior. Huh? I think Pkg is very good as far as package managers go, exceptionally so. What specifically is your issue with it?

Pratt's method only targets the operator precedence languages, not the DCFL. So much less powerful than LR parsing.

The TLDR describes your method accurately, though. You do store your OTP secrets in a password store. That said, the significance of using two separate password stores isn't clear to me. Under what threat model is that supposed to be a

TLDR: use a password manager to store your secrets. An OTP secret key is just a secret.
