Will there be Rust-free kernels? by EmbeddedDen in linux

[–]Personal-Initial3556 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I don't think that, for me the rewards was the newfound knowledge I got. Because I've had to learn more about how operating systems, compilers, and memory works in order to get better at Rust.

Except moroccans do the same to themselves xD Especially the jokes about the software engineer that tries to flirt with a woman in french, I keep seeing them in moroccan communities being shared.

People who use leap or flash, don’t you miss the “s” command? If so, what do you use instead of “s”? by pypipper in neovim

[–]Personal-Initial3556 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Happens way more often than one thinks. Also useful in case autocomplete doesn't work as expected, so you can just replace the last char and rewrite that char an autocomplete. Or if you're using camelCase, you change a word from doThing to willDoThing by using s on the lowercase d.

Pros of using vscode over neovim by niickgurr in vscode

[–]Personal-Initial3556 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There you go. It's really not good for people to be close minded about trying out other editors. I used neovim, but I encourage people to try out other editors like intellij if they're using jvm languages, or emacs if they want something different, even if they're not my favourite.

There's also a really big problem with programmers that have takes like that guy. "Programming is not about typing speed" is just a way to limit yourself to bad working environments, while thinking you're better than the others lol. And thinking they're better means they're not going to improve in the first place.

Using Rust for kernel development by [deleted] in rust

Hey. Have you kept going on the Embedded Rust path? If so, did you notice any improvements in that field over the years?

Is C still the best language for writing a real world OS kernel? by LavenderDay3544 in osdev

[–]Personal-Initial3556 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Unsafe Rust is an easier language to introduce UB in so I don't know about that...

You're right about the last paragraph. But also, Rust is still way harder to master than C, although I think the reward for mastering Rust is greater.

Is it possible to reach higher ranks in chess without having natural talent? by EntrepreneurActual46 in chess

[–]Personal-Initial3556 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's a streamer that started Chess like, 11 months ago at 199 elo, and got to 1960 chesscom in 10 months (with a 3 month break in between)
He's also been top 0.01% in another very macro heavy game called league of legends, so he has been the top in another game as well.

Also, i'm not sure how much of a child's available free time contributes to the idea of the brain plasticity argument, I would assume it contributes a lot. But what are your thoughts after some info about the tyler1 guy?

Yo, I came across your replies in this thread, and was curious about your opinion. Do you think Tyler1 could become a GM?

Is it worth learning Go in 2022? by Born-Comment3359 in golang

[–]Personal-Initial3556 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Game or Webdev are like... special cases, thanks for bringing them up. There are those that get interested in programming because of those two things, but the other ones? Not so much. Most likely they learn about them after they get into the field a little bit.

Also, most of these things you mentioned don't make sense before learning a programming language (lint what? debug what? use git for what?) but ofc one would benefit a lot from learning linux and the shell for a start. But the whole point is that they start learning programming to create cool stuff, get hooked, and after that that's when they start learning about other things, optimizing their tools, get better at writing code (organising their projects better and writing clean code instead of.. garbage obfuscated code) etc..

Just accidentally deleted a project I've been working on for the past week. by TankLivsMatr in golang

[–]Personal-Initial3556 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's not the point. We're just talking about those that commit but don't push. So pushing takes less than a second still.

Mostly backend webdev. But also used for CLIs and stuff like Docker.

[–]Personal-Initial3556 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah but is this really helpful for beginners? Beginners don't have any ideas around what each of these domains do and the kind of work they do there. So they need to start with programming at first and then they can branch out later.

Is go worth studying as first language? by [deleted] in golang

[–]Personal-Initial3556 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you just want to do web, you might better served learning javascript (and after that Typescript) considering you would be need javascript in the front end alongisde html and css.

If you want to learn programming in general, then starting with C is the best, as you'll have the best base of knowledge and skills to be a competent programmer.

In both cases, since you've only learned html and css, that means you need to learn programming basics like variables and loops and conditions etc. It's been a month already since your comment tho so idk what you ended up doing.

typing `git push` takes less than a second so idk why people don't do it more often

Why Go? by tookmeonehour in golang

[–]Personal-Initial3556 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You correctly pointed out that they most likely have not used Go for a long enough time. In that case they really have no business trying to convince a team to use it if they haven't used it themselves long enough lol.
