Real talk. My youngest brother just started college and is learning C as part of his programming class. So far they’ve only taught him very 101 stuff like basic data types and variables declaration. But, out of curiosity and because his eager of knowledge, the guy already

@ptr_to_joel 1. Create a tmux session on a server and open nvim on it. 2. Tell all your devs to ssh into that server and attach to that tmux session. 3. You’re welcome.

If my business was built around the bloated JS ecosystem, I’d probably attack htmx as well.

Bun is really cool and all but, you know you’ll still be coding in JS, right?.

Trying the 1 billion rows challenge in Rust. It’s taking ~130 seconds so far using a single thread on a 2019 macbook pro. 0 deps. All custom code + std.

Let's work on improving typing skills. This is unacceptable for a nvim user

I’ve been coding for more than 10 years now. I’ve dealt with matrices a lot of times. Still never know if it’s m[x][y] or m[y][x] without trying it out first.

Dear soydevs, functional programming is more than map/filter/reduce. Thnx for coming to my ted talk.

My 2023 in a nutshell . - Stop smoking .- Started doing backend full time (almost) again. - Kept improving rust skills. - Learned OCaml (WIP).- Got rejected by a FAANG company (but with a good feedback).- Kids keep growing strong and healthy. - Still in love with my beautiful.

🦀 Useful method: skip/skip_while. - Creates an iterator that skips some items. - skip: Given `n`, skip at most `n` items. - skip_while: Given a predicate, skips items till evaluates to false. #rust #rustlang #programming #usefulmethod

I think I defined my goals from now on (all Rust related):. - [ ] Master the lang as much as I can. - [ ] Contribute to the project and/or ecosystem. - [ ] Get a full-time Rust developer job. Wish me luck 😁.

🦀 Useful method: chain. - Takes two iterators and creates a new iterator over both in sequence. #rust #rustlang #programming

@anerdguynow I do it when the thing becomes a pain point. But I’ve seen the problem go beyond devs not creating them. They sometimes don’t even care about that stuff to the point of not using them to their advantage when someone else creates the script/tools.

“TypeScript type system is better than Rust’s”. Ok, that shit you’re consuming is too strong.

I think I’m ready to do rust full time. Still a lot to learn but I’m sure I can do it. 💪. Let me know if you know about any open position. And remember, 🔄 gives you exp points.

you may not like it but this is what a real builder looks like. In Rust, btw. yeah yeah, boilerplate blah blah. easily fixed with a macro. Notice there's no error handling at all, nor Option fields. They're not needed when implementing the typestate.

🦀 Useful method: chunks . - From a slice, returns an iterator that produces slices of `chunk_size` len that don't overlap.- Last chunk could be smaller than `chunk_size` depending on the initial slice len.- Panics if `chunk_size` is 0. #rust #rustlang #programming #usefulmethod

@rustafariandev Agree. That’s why I hate the current discourse advocating for teaching high level languages, because the low-level ones make people quit.

Yes, I’m still stuck in day 4 part 2. No, I won’t copy anyone else’s solution . No matter what, I’ll do it. The outcome will always be learning.

Choosing Rust is not all about speed/performance. You also get:. - Super expressive type system. - Superior error management. - Awesome tooling.- Robust ecosystem. #rust #rustlang #programming.

Rust dominates again even after all the drama. If that doesn't tell you the lang is super worth it I don't even know what will.

A competitor?! This shit IS vscode.
Google is working on a new IDE called IDX. It's a competitor to VS Code

🦀 Useful method: enumerate. - Creates an iterator that counts each iteration. - From an iterator that yields items A, enumerate produces a new one that yields (i, A) pairs, where i is the index and A the item. #rust #rustlang #programming #usefulmethod

love when the method is called `is_valid` and returns the mass of the sun 😊.

If you don’t like rust that’s fine, but don’t try spread your skill issues here.

"I use an IDE 'cause it makes my life easier" is another way of saying "I need an IDE 'cause I don't know how things work".

@ml4funandprofit @typecraft_dev skill issue. I used Linux as my daily driver for 5 years and never had a problem that made me want to stop using it due to instability. In fact, I'm just about to get back to it.

pick rust and you'll stop worrying about if your app is IO or CPU bounded.

If the compiler wasn't written in the same language, that's a red flag. I mean, not even the creators of the language think it's good enough.

@WarrenInTheBuff The best part is at the end. "And whenever I say JavaScript, I actually mean TypeScript. I’m not a savage after all.".

do you know what's a rare, underrated skill?. Read the error message.

Lately I've been thinking about starting a twitch channel. Motivations?. - Build and learn in public. - Connect with people with the same interests. - Practice my English. - Have fun. What do you think? Would you watch it knowing I'll sometimes struggle with the language?.
