Maybe someone should artcraft the good debugging tools.

Sell it as if you were Ikea selling furniture, not a craftsman selling furniture.

I really like that drag-and-drop in the code editor... can I have some keybindings to do it with the keyboard?

I prefer the right click menu to work like normal over them overriding it so it doesn't work.

Zig can also compile to C so at least it's as portable.

Maybe people are having fun reinventing the wheel? Maybe they want to try other ways to solve the same problem or pick different trade-offs. Maybe they don't like the license, plenty of software has been written from scratch just to avoid the license of existing software.

Try Codeberg, it's specifically for Open Source.

And I guess this is why I don't like Free Jazz. It sits close to the random noise side of the spectrum. I guess other people can feel the patterns in it.

Just call it CVE-2026-111497. More accurate and much easier to remember and to talk about with your boss.

They feel harmed by the AI companies training AI on their data so they feel retaliation is justified.

This one seems to be tested against some php projects like Doctrine and WordPress and pass most of their tests. They themselves say it's not ready for production yet.

The unforseen consequences of progress? Nobody thought cars would be bad for the environment when they were inventing them. Heck, 5 years ago nobody was thinking seriously about AI having the potential to exterminate us.

I wonder if a rust-to-c tool would help you, your mold2 would just be the cached result of that. Would that C code still be treated as a binary dependency since it would not be very human readable?

How about a rust-to-wasm process, you store the wasm binary, but have a human readable wasm interpreter that only implements enough for mold to work? Would that be trusty enough?

If you are gonna use LLMs to put the code in prose, skip the middleman and just read the code & tests directly, it is actually pretty readable.

You can't RTFM. The language is in development and any manual would get out of date fast. It's better use of their limited resources to focus on completing the language, then focus on the manual once the language is not a moving target.

I wonder if their very long words result in more or less token usage.

I'd rather them be frank than use corpospeak.

Sending a repro and saying you don't understand why it doesn't work is valid too.

Why such high expectations from a 0.x project? They explicitly break backwards compatibility now so they don't have to do it once 1.0 comes. There's nothing wrong with waiting a few years before trying Zig.

They want to focus first on bugs hitting people's actual code to unblock them, not theoretical bugs that LLMs can hit by coming up with some contrived code, regardless of the quality of the bug report.

Which sucks when I'm writing about SQL because it works both ways: "An es-cue-el query" "A sequel query"

But which GUI toolkit will they use for all their new rust applications?

You can pout it on itch.io and write a devlog there.

Funny Joel's last blopost was about creating a new leaky abstraction on top of HTML https://www.joelonsoftware.com/2022/12/19/progress-on-the-bl...

Is this supposed to read as Norway's YAML?

Automating https://xkcd.com/221/ eh?

I do not use Twitter but some people who do interesting things somehow still do and only post about them there. It's all so tiring.

They keep public records updated quarterly (neat!). Until June they had 774 users and 2090 repos: https://codefloe.com/codefloe/analytics/src/branch/main/repo...

It was on typewriters because the fonts were monospace so the period would have some extra space to its left, the double space after it made it easier to see at a glance where a new sentence occurs.

That just means you have a potential userbase for an alternative for non-TUI people. If the market is that big, why not take it for yourself?
