C# rightfully criticized for over-abstraction. Go for it's ridiculous repetitiveness and subpar package system.

But really the comparison should be .NET vs Go. At which point you add a very compelling alternative to the mix in #fsharp. Full .NET ecosystem. Terse & modular code.

I'm at that awkward stage in learning that I no longer react to syntax errors with "what did I do wrong?" but with "what language am I using?"

Pro tip: When hiring (or dating), normalize not ignoring that *one* red flag.

Your gut is probably right.

@FastFSharp In the meantime, we should be able to implement span64 as a library, right? Other than being a ref struct I don't think span relies on any compiler magic.

@drgurner This attitude from a book quote helped reset my look on things.

"What is past is past. never go back. Not for excuses. Not for justification, not for happiness. You are what you are, the world is what it is."

Cut a lot of drama out of my life.

I’ve never observed anyone, regardless of field, achieve lasting prominence while voicing rancor or focusing much on the failings of others. Create and share, support others and enjoy. Givers and creators always prevail.

For #UI designers, #midjourney is a new way to find inspiration for layout and style. Is this plus #chatgpt3 the future of experience design?

You can also give them all unique up addresses. Any 127.a.b.c is still local host.

[Dan Clarke 🎙 @dracan]

Today I learnt by accident that instead of using `localhost`, you can put `<anything>.localhost`. I've always manually added a bunch of explicit hosts file entries pointing to 127.0.0.1 for different local services before. This is so much better! 🙂 #devtip

Kyiv was founded in 482.

In 1147, the Grand Duke of Kyiv and ruler of the Kyivan Rus’, Yuriy Dolhoruky, issued a decree founding Moscow.

In 2022, Kyiv City Council rescinded this decree, saying it was due to a “historical misunderstanding.”

Moscow no longer exists.
