I'm not familiar with Go or Rust but...

K Go (made by Google), F TypeScript, M Rust

Hot take:
Fuck TS, marry Go, kill Rust.

So what's your Go compiler and browser written in?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I was under the impression that the Go compiler was written in C/C++, though don't quote me on this one. My browser however is Firefox, so touché on that one.

It's either C/C++ or Rust, right? And the thing about Cu̎윈

Segmentation fault

There's plenty of applications that aren't critical enough to require precise memory management and where a GC is a worthy tradeoff for the simplicity that Go brings to the table, but sure, if you are interested in going super low level that's what you are left to work with.

And it's probably fine. If I had to pick between C++ and Rust I would choose the latter any day of the week but thankfully not every developer has to go that low.

Oh yeah, don't get me wrong higher-level languages have a place. C and I assume Rust are no good if you just want to hack a simple thing together. Low-level languages are bad is indeed a hot take, though, and I've fully bought into the Rust hype, at least vs. C/C++.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Nah I didn't say that it's bad lol. Didn't mean it that way, at least. The way I understand the "fuck, marry, kill" game is that:

  • Fuck: down to play with it every once in a while
  • Marry: always down to use it
  • Kill: never want to use it

but if someone else wants to play with Rust who am I to stop them

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago

Fuck go

Marry typescript

Kill rust

Kill typescript, fuck rust, marry go

@defcon201 @defcon @programmerhumor @TypeScript @rust @golang

Fuck TS, marry Rust, kill Go (but only because I have to kill one, never used it)

fuck ts, marry go, kill rust (no language should have magic returns...and its pretty close to unreadable)

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

I wish implicit returns could be turned into an error in the configs of a project. It was impopular at the time and probably still is outside of Rust, it permeated through every control structure because of how the language is designed, but the worst part is how unnecessary it was

It would've cost nothing not to do it

It would've made no one upset

Now Rust is the only language to do what it does - and it has this shit in it
