Cry harder

Oof. Looks like this affected some other languages as well - somebody at Microsoft needs to up their documentation game, methinks.

I liked GalaxQL.

Can’t beat Iosevka in my opinion. I use the Term variant for my shell as well.

$0.26/hour is pretty good!

Well, that’s to be expected - the implementation of map expects a function that takes ownership of its inputs, so you get a type mismatch.

If you really want to golf things, you can tack your own map_ref (and friends) onto the Iterator trait. It’s not very useful - the output can’t reference the input - but it’s possible!

I imagine you could possibly extend this to a combinator that returns a tuple of (Input, ref_map'd output) to get around that limitation, although I can’t think of any cases where that would actually be useful.

It wouldn't be as relevant, since passing a function or method instead of a closure is much easier in Rust - you can just name it, while Ruby requires you to use the method method.

So instead of .map(|res| res.unwrap()) you can do .map(Result::unwrap) and it'll Just Work™.

The GNOME text editor or Nano.

I appreciate Vim, but when I just need to inspect something or change a single line, the former are easier.

As for Neovim and Emacs… I don't have eight hours to set aside monthly to keep them configured and working.

Yeah, the Copilot ad in the source viewer smacks of desperation.

Unfortunately, it's not that simple. The Remote* extensions rely on the (proprietary) VSCode server, and nobody has managed to hack it to work with e.g. Codium.

Mostly just Visual Studio Code, alongside the usual constellation of Git + assorted language toolchains.

It's plug and play at every level - no need to waste hours fucking around with an Emacs or (Neo)Vim configuration just to get a decent development environment set up.

(And yes, I would use Codium, but the remote containers extension is simply too good.)

Yeah, all of Amos’s content is gold. I highly recommend his executable packer series if you get into systems work - very interesting stuff.

OP is definitely a masochist.

True, but it’s uniquely bad in the JS world. Developers tend to rely on libraries in almost cartoonish excess.

• The language is shit in general, leading to an endless parade of frameworks and packages designed to paper over the sore spots.
• The lack of a well-rounded One True Standard Library™ means lots of trivial functionality needs to come from somewhere.
• Micro-dependencies are commonplace, leading to bloated dependency trees. I’d guess this is caused by a combination of both culture and the fact that you often want your JS artifacts to be as lean as possible.

After seeing the various forms of black magic Nintendo devs have pulled off with what is essentially decade-old tablet hardware… yeah, fine by me.

At some point, npm supply chain attacks are going to stop being news and start being “Tuesday.”

… JS on the backend was a mistake.

In before one of them starts stripping or firewalling the phone-home code. What’s Unity gonna do? Valve hasn’t signed any contracts with them!

Well, there’s just not much reason to switch yet. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.

(Well, maybe Copilot training, but I’m sure those dipshits at OpenAI scrape Gitlab too.)

But an extra fee will be charged if a user installs a game on a second device, say a Steam Deck after installing a game on a PC.

Actually asinine.
