Adding one more discontinued project to my graveyard, https://t.co/Pq6SAfqDKS. All interactivity is implemented using #htmx. Backend is in #golang. #buildinpublic

[Bad & Wrong @BadWrongOU]

Leaving it here for posterity: Echo – a web-service for converting Apple Music to Spotify. Used #htmx and #golang by the way. https://t.co/618ur8CZ3w

Had to sacrifice my sleep for this documentary. It was good. “The winter is coming”.

I watched the C++ documentary. Here's my review.

We live in unprecedented times. We have the opportunity to talk to people who were at the origins of groundbreaking modern innovations. C++ will exist for millennia. Its creators will not.

I was fascinated by how C++ became so popular. Basically:

1. They did an outstanding job. Everyone wanted to use it.
2. Bjarne gave as many talks as he could to let people know about C++.

The marketing budget was abysmal in the beginning. Bjarne's employer gave him just $5,000. It was barely enough to organise a single conference.

C++ was so good that even Brian Kernighan himself said that C isn't suitable for problems where C++ excels (yes, that Brian Kernighan from the famous The C Programming Language).

What astonished me the most was how C++'s focus on performance enabled it to become so widespread and survive several "winters," such as periods when hardware was getting faster and faster every year. Nowadays, C++ is used everywhere: phones, operating systems, embedded systems, finance, energy grids, and scientific computing. Even the entire AI industry is powered by C++

C++ is a net positive for society, and making C++ better makes the entire world better.

Of course, C++ is not without its flaws. It is becoming bigger and more complex every year. It's really hard to learn C++ and use it effectively. The onboarding time is insane. Besides, safety remains a significant issue.

Regardless, exciting times lie ahead!

@ChShersh I wonder how the design by committee problem could be solved.

Hopefully, this mission also brings us some stellar 6k desktop wallpaper.

@Neovim Surprised to see the stream behind a paywall.

@ThePrimeagen Also,

> AI will create free/cheap energy, free education, cheaper and better food, homes that build themselves and medicine that makes you as healthy as a 30-year-old when you’re 100.

Should we expect free RAM at some point?

@TheGingerBill Or we can install pkgs in a sandboxed environment.

[Ihar Suvorau @suvorau]

@mitsuhiko I’d sleep better if ‘pip install’ also wouldn’t execute arbitrary code. https://t.co/jijd10N0NP and https://t.co/cxvOrVV5Z7

[Ihar Suvorau @suvorau]

Who would’ve guessed that arbitrary code execution on fetching a dependency can be exploited. Nobody https://t.co/jijd10N0NP and https://t.co/cxvOrVV5Z7
