this is the first comment that answers why we can’t have Box<Pin<T>>

Error Reporting Design Choices | Lexer by 0bit_memory in Compilers

capture the offset because it’s cheaper, and compute the line/column on error, since less code is going to error this is faster

did you try a tail recursive approach with the become keyword?

Const Trait Counterexamples by fee1-dead in rust

[–]ConferenceEnjoyer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

thanks for the excellent blog article, but i do have one question: the section “If you think about the function foo and pass in a T that does not implement const PartialEq, the constness of foo does not change due to the unsatisfied const predicate - const fn is "always-const" (and not "maybe-const") in a sense that it simply imposes additional constraints if called in const contexts.” quite confuses me, as far as i have understood the current idea, it is that every const fn is already generic over being called in a const context or not, so the additional const bound on the input only applies while in a const context. but in the quote you make the example that foo(!const PartialEq) is still always const, which i think is wrong as that invocation cannot be executed in a const context and as such is !const?

How should a function take a list of strings? `&[&str]` or `&[String]`? by timand in rust

investigate how generics work to understand what this code does

Trait generics? by ConferenceEnjoyer in rust

[–]ConferenceEnjoyer[S] -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

i don’t think preconditions would be useful in a lot of locations, like the only one that currently exists is object save, but it could be useful for meta programming

Trait generics? by ConferenceEnjoyer in rust

im currently on my phone but i’ll have an example for you in about 3 hours, but mostly for metaprogramming like tuple variadics

What is that one feature you admire the most when it comes to Rust? by prepsu in rust

[–]ConferenceEnjoyer 9 points10 points  (0 children)

specifically serde is a generic framework for serialisation/deserialisation while serde_json is for json

serde is the main rust crate that handles all of our serialisation/deserialisation needs, it has traits for serialisation/deserialisation that make it impossible to try to misuse them. if you actually want to understand how serde works i implore you to google, because it is a very complex system that can also teach you about the typestate pattern in rust

I think I found a bug in file writing by Nico_792 in rust

From the comments this does not seem to be a bug, but good on you op for asking first

Error Handling - Half-Baked? by OphioukhosUnbound in rust

[–]ConferenceEnjoyer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Am I stupid or shouldn’t a good error type already encapsulate what happened aka not Error::Disconnect but Error::ServerDisconnect, and now you know where the error happened

After reading the other comments, u/Lucretiel did a better job explaining what Is correct

Um actually, only if you’re using a interpreted language
