@Boost_Libraries This is pretty awesome. Is it simd-optimized?

[NeoSmart Technologies @NeoSmart]

It doesn’t take a genius to realize the night-and-day difference between how an adult and a child talk or write. You’re interacting with a glorified pattern detector. It’s its whole job!

[Sick @sickdotdev]

Wtfff??? How did they even detect it?

[NeoSmart Technologies @NeoSmart]

It's been six years and rust-analyzer remains the slowest and buggiest LSP I use. It's amazing how quickly it goes from "incredibly responsive" to "it's faster to compile in another terminal window" as the project size inches upward. (even with splitting into multiple crates!)

@rebane2001 Name and shame! Which browsers?

@Mileage_impo Analog MPG gauge goes hard!
(I imagine that’s ~instantaneous and not average MPG?)

@venglin FreeBSD 15 is safe?

[NeoSmart Technologies @NeoSmart]

@oxcrowx Use gitea.

[NeoSmart Technologies @NeoSmart]

@uproxide Wrong because FreeBSD isn’t Unix certified itself. Lineage is irrelevant here.

@ThePrimeagen It was an ai slop codebase prior to the transition and it’s an ai slop codebase after the transition, just in a different language.

@jorandirkgreef @sehz_ai They’re both Turing complete languages, obviously, but some patterns might be more awkward or require more friction. But you might be surprised at the kind of abstractions rust lets you write, even for non-idiomatic patterns, with some creative lifetime annotations. Zig is nice.

@StokeWillie @bungoman Only for the uninitialized variable case.

@marcsh @bungoman Please don’t turn C into JavaScript. Thanks.

@CryptoCyberia Windows 2000 was undeniably stable. But it was still common and easy for bad third party drivers to give you BSODs because it was before user mode drivers were a thing.

Changing a one to a two is a *two* bit change, both in ascii and in binary.

[2]After our failed competition, we headed to Apple Store and bought the mbp m5 and spent less than half an hour to set it up and found a fixed offset is changed 1 bit on it, so we just change 1 bit on our exp and it worked with a 100% success rate. Yes just 1 bit change, 1 to 2.

@IntCyberDigest There is nothing too weird about a low-priority bug fix not shipping for 34 months.

[NeoSmart Technologies @NeoSmart]

Anthropic got scammed so bad. Funny how no one in the rust community even wants to claim Bun!

[oxcrow @oxcrowx]

Anyone remember when Bun forked Zig and said they "optimized the compiler with AI"?

They made the compiler non-deterministic -- Meaning sometimes it will work, sometimes it MAY not.

Schrodinger's cat ahh compiler. 🤡

It would be nice if serde json supported dot delimited getters. So much boilerplate currently.

[Boost C++ | Open Source Libraries @Boost_Libraries]

Boost Blueprint 048: Boost.PropertyTree. A generic hierarchical key-value store that reads and writes JSON, XML, INI, and its own INFO format through one unified API

Query nested values with dot-delimited paths: pt.get<int>("server.port"). If the key may not exist, use get with a default value or get_optional returning boost::none. Iterate subtrees. Modify in memory and write back to any supported format. One data structure, four formats, zero schema boilerplate

Level up your C++ architecture. Follow @Boost_Libraries for the #BoostBlueprint series

@HSVSphere Because only babies would find that useful.

[NeoSmart Technologies @NeoSmart]

@jarredsumner @simonklee But how many of those were due to index-out-of-bounds that are still there? How many were papered over with unsafe? Rust provides these guarantees when the code was developed in it, not automatically ported over with minimal oversight by an agent.
