There’s a difference between ” it hasn’t changed because it doesn’t need to be changed” and ” it hasn’t changed because it’s impossible to predict the impact of any change, and no one wants to be responsible for things breaking”.

He’s also doing a lot of argument by definition.

For example, he argued that God exists because morals exist. This follows from his own definition, which states that morals can only come from God.

Unrealistic. This is way too coherent. Needs more word salad.

There was a German mathematician who allegedly managed to do it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theodor_Kaluza

Strange stories were told of his private life, for example, that he taught himself to swim during his thirties by reading a book about it and succeeded at his first attempt in the water.

It’s for their servers. I guess it might have to do with cache optimization reasons. For performance reasons, they want to ensure they can fit as much as possible in the cache. One extra byte can throw the memory alignment off, which cause wasted space in cache.

Just my guess. There might be other reasons.

Static lifetimes confused me when I started learning rust. The error message guides the developer to the wrong direction.

It took me a while to realize that just using Arc is sufficient in most of those cases.

They have made it very clear that they don’t want any contact. Enough many people have been killed in attempts to get contact with the tribe. I think the ethical thing to do is to respect their wishes and leave them alone.

I think the problem is that many introductory examples use unwrap, so many beginner programmers don’t get exposed to alternatives like unwrap_or and the likes.

I’m a OOP programmer.

I wrap everything within Arc<Mutex<>>.

I’m a happy dev.

This is why I rarely use AI for coding. How to put my thoughts into code is not my main concern. My main concern is that another person should understand my thoughts when reading the code.
