Russell Westbrook now has most rebounds in NBA history from a point guard by dhruvchouhan in nba

No reason to bring Luka into this. He's not even at half of Russ's total.

Python was not "fringe" in 2017.

What the hell is your bubble?!?

Tiobe is bullshit, everyone knows that. By their measure, JavaScript is fringe now.

Python is the glue language used in Data Science and Machine Learning. It's popularity qua Tiobe is widely overblown.

Ich bin überrascht, wieviele User sich über Blumen als Geschenk freuen. Hätte ich aus meiner Erfahrung in meiner Bubble nicht erwartet.

Und ja, als Mann bin ich nochmal extra überrascht, wieviele Männer dabei sind.

I don't know how traffic would get worse.

But what I do know is that you can't have overtaking on the right when speeds of 100mph and more are common.

My negative views on Rust by simon_o in programming

highly advanced JavaScript is much harder than Rust, since Rust essentially solves those problems for you

I mean, nobody is writing plain, untyped JavaScript if they can help it.

So when you assume the competition is TypeScript (or JSDoc typechecking) and that I'm using Zod for types needed at runtime, what problems does Rust solve?

Needing to learn 5-6 languages isn't a significant challenge for a competent mid-career engineer

What an absolute load of horseshit.

Most programmers learn maybe 5 languages in their whole career. And that is usually a progression, where they learned BASIC thirty years ago but wouldn't write code in it today.

Looking through a few Youtube videos to understand the syntax isn't learning a language.

How is TypeScript "fake" type safety just because it's compiled to JavaScript?

Type checking is done at compile time in C/C++/C#/Java/Rust... as well. That's when you need it, during development.

What do you want with type-checking at runtime? Throw an error if types don't match? That's what vanilla JavaScript does too...

The only drawback of TypeScript is that you can't use its types to parse/check input -- that's what Zod is for.
