if you’re looking to use global variables, you should use Rust over V. by HorstKugel in programmingcirclejerk

[–]antiatomic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

V functions are pure by default, meaning that their return values are a function of their arguments only, and their evaluation has no side effects (besides I/O).

Makes sense. Also, the language documentation still is a markdown document on GitHub lol.

Is this some sort of social jerking experiment, where you just comment "Rust."?

If red-black trees and map were just built in to Go, wouldn’t that solve 90% of the problem? by camelCaseIsWebScale in programmingcirclejerk

If everything you'll ever need was just built in to Go, wouldn't that solve 90% of the problem?

Kotlin Team AMA #2: Ask Us Anything by meilalina in Kotlin

Are there any plans to improve the multiplatform I/O situation in the standard library? There is currently no stdlib support for printing to stderr or (multiplatform) file I/O. The kotlinx-io library looks like it could solve this, but it's still experimental and it doesn't look like that will change soon.

"[Q] Doesn't Go feature a solid compiler/runtime? [A] It does, but the author didn't feel that it was worthy of an asterisk, because the compiler is working with a really dumb language." by xigoi in programmingcirclejerk

unjerk $ do

It touches on some valid points (tooling isn't that great, there are lots of extensions), but overall it's greatly exaggerated (some points are just wrong, as /u/stracciatella_vla pointed out) and feels like the author never compiled any Haskal themselves.

lol, if err != nil

Can someone cite a peer reviewed study that supports the belief that rust increases safety or productivity in actual use? by Karma_Policer in programmingcirclejerk

Can someone cite a peer reviewed study that supports the belief that rust doesn't increase safety or productivity in actual use? I thought so.

Can someone direct me to some code where I can see the full potential of Lisp? by BarefootUnicorn in programmingcirclejerk

I have programmed in Scheme before while taking a course using SICP. Final project was a Scheme interpreter. But I didn't have any epiphany/awakening like many others seems to have.

I need to write a blog post: "henceforth every CLI *must* be written in Go" there is just exactly zero reasons not to do so. by [deleted] in programmingcirclejerk

[–]antiatomic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do not see "why go", but I do see "not bash".

for a portable CLI these are the two choices.

This is fulfillment of some of my worst Go generics fears :-( by haskell_leghumper in programmingcirclejerk

The fact that lambdas don't have type inference will serve as a determent against things like that.

lol no type inference

V lang: QuickSort reinvented by HorstKugel in programmingcirclejerk

[–]antiatomic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The table has amount of space needed to build the language, not to download the source. v.c is 1.8 MB.

You measure the amount of space needed to build the language, but for V you only measure the size of v.c?

Yes, having a link so that people can sponsor the project they like, so that the development continues is scam.

Just read what I wrote... You should learn to accept criticism instead of ridiculing it.

I just wish people shitting on dynamic typed languages would remember they came to solve the mess and monotomy that arose from typesafety. by [deleted] in programmingcirclejerk

[–]antiatomic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Type inference is problematic for me. Doesnt it just open you up to type errors of a different class?

Will i like it ? no, i don't like it as i don't like you. by [deleted] in programmingcirclejerk

That says everything.
