@beezus_fuffoon @TrisH0x2A I get the the appeal of Rust.
I just don't get the appeal of Rust.

@kmcnam1 I don't know how beautiful python is IMO.
I like my curly braces

I think you nailed it.
If we all start developing on computers from a couple decades ago. the give-a-shit-o-meter would have to be pegged out to create competitive SW.

With great power, comes great responsibility.
The responsibility was ignored.
The power should be revoked.

If this yields any wins at all, they’ll almost immediately be eaten by more waste, and will disappear entirely. The software industry has eaten far more substantial performance wins provided largely by the hardware industry—in just a few decades, 1000x faster clock speeds, 10x more cores, 1000x larger memory, 1000000x larger disk space, and so on.

Microsoft is working on a new feature for Windows 11 that will make apps open faster and everyday tasks feel much quicker. The feature, called Low Latency Profile, gives the CPU a short burst of full power when you start an app or click on things like the Start menu, pop-up windows, or right-click menus. These quick boosts will cut down on waiting time without using much extra battery or making the computer hotter. This is part of a bigger Microsoft plan called “Windows K2” to fix common complaints about speed and smoothness in Windows 11. The feature is still in early internal tests so it has not reached regular users yet and could change before release. Most of people find Windows 11 slow and clunky so maybe microsoft finally will fix the OS

What if I could hire 10,000 Olympic sprinters to organize my closet.

@mitsuhiko What if Rust could compile on the GPU?
English
GPU's are entirely the wrong hardware architecture. Compilation is not a vectorized problem.
Modern compilers spend most of their time doing things GPUs hate: dependency analysis, graph traversal, branch-heavy logic, pointer chasing, cache-sensitive data structures, and synchronization between passes.
GPUs excel when you can run the same instruction across huge amounts of independent data. Compilers are usually the opposite. They are designed to handle highly irregular workloads with many sequential dependencies and unpredictable memory access.
You might accelerate isolated passes on a GPU, but moving an entire compiler there would likely make it slower, more complex, and dramatically harder to maintain. CPUs are already extremely good at the kind of work compilers actually do.

Someone please rewrite rust in rust with the /goal to make compile times faster. x.com/matteocollina/…

Should @nodejs attempt a rewrite to Rust like @bunjavascript is doing by burning unlimited tokens?

@BryanMaclee @htmx_org If I could use guns to make an app I would. grenades too ideally

@BryanMaclee I know it could be, but mocking popular people is just so effective, can't help it 😉

Guy calls himself a top engineer but can't figure out how to paste on a Mac
ThePrimeagen@ThePrimeagen
without googling, i still cannot figure out how to copy and paste on a mac into: 1. the provided Terminal app (which sucks) 2. Ghostty. C-V does nothing, C-v goes into escape insertion (expected). I refuse to google this and it should just be obvious...

ill bless my timeline with this on a sunday.
gemini 3.1 pro is the ONLY model I've seen REMOVE heaps of shitty code to refactor with a net-negative churn.
do with that what you will.

Entire api surface of io_uring - the fastest way to do IO on Linux - is 3 syscalls and 3 structs. But one of the structs is actually a bunch of unions (on the pic), so the amount of invariants is big! That's why liburing, the go-to way to use io_uring, is ~4k lines of code

I just dont't get the appeal of Rust.

though, perhaps, this is exactly what we need to move past npm.
think about it.
if suddenly there are millions of local node module forks thrust out into the wild. There will be security vulnerabilitys galore.
In turn. People realize the better path is to use those llm accounts to unethically hack.
They wont realize that all of their easy targets don't have any users and therefore no money to scam.
And in all this noise, an opportunity to have REAL conversations about the future of programming, might just make itself known.

@teej_dv 🤣🤣🤣
Didn't you tell it, no mistakes?
Though, it's hard not to look at this as the result of compounded mistakes.
