Man. https://blog.rust-lang.org/2018/05/10/Rust-1.26.html is a pretty good summary of why Rust was nearly unusable in its first stable form.
08:23
<&McMartin>
Particularly the "nicer match bindings" part.
08:47
< Vorntastic>
I suspect I would get more out of this if I knew any rust
08:47
<&McMartin>
Well, the amount of finicky garbage that needs to be added for "unwrap an nullable value", mainly
09:05 * Vorntastic examines, figures it out

McMartin: Every single one of those new language features is something that would have made me much happier last week when I wrote some Rust for exercism.
09:58

Particularly the `impl Trait` stuff.

< RchrdB>
so, slightly fun Haskell thing
20:15
< RchrdB>
I have a system which has 5 different things going on inside it, and I want them to all run as separate processes (largely so that I can assign them different scheduling priorities)
20:16
< RchrdB>
I had them building as 5 different binaries. Then I was wondering why linking takes ages and the executables take up 125MB.
20:17
< RchrdB>
I forgot GHC doesn't do dynamic linking out the box, so I'd duplicated 99% of the code into each of the binaries.
20:17
< RchrdB>
Changing it to be one "busybox"-style binary, where there's one binary which acts like any of the other 5 depending on which argument you invoke it with, gave me one 25MB executable instead of five 25MB executables.
20:18
<&McMartin>
Your invocation of busybox suggests that this is a trick that works with some success even with languages like C.
20:20
< RchrdB>
"busybox" is almost always shipped statically linked so yes.
20:20
< RchrdB>
If busybox were shipped dynamically linked it wouldn't make so much difference. Perhaps some.
20:25
< Vorntastic>
Git and man also do this
20:26
< Vorntastic>
(apropos is technically a symlink and then man checks argv[0])
20:27
<&McMartin>
I have just been linked this, er, manifesto. https://makefrontendshitagain.party
20:28
<&McMartin>
I feel for the full effect it should also be done entirely with strictly conforming CSS and maybe even restricted to XHTML 1.0
20:28
<&McMartin>
And if possible No Javascript
20:33
< Vorntastic>
I feel suddenly educated stupid
20:34
<&McMartin>
TimeCube would have been improved by a bunch of animated gifs of seals spinning balls on their noses, it's true.

<&McMartin>
The difference is that with the non-ML approaches you can analyze the result and see clearly that and why it works~
20:44
< RchrdB>
maybe I should pick up ML, 4 times my current salary would be nice, I could buy biscuits.
21:14
< RchrdB>
...one SELECT statement that has caused postgres to spend over 24 minutes working, so far.
21:15
< Vorntastic>
That's a good time. How big is this database and what terror is the query perpetrating
21:19
< RchrdB>
It's really a giant UPDATE hiding inside a stored proc to be fiar.
21:19
< RchrdB>
It's summarising the contents of one table into another. Really it shouldn't be in SQL in the first place but I'm not going to fix that now.
21:20
< RchrdB>
Maybe some time a few months *after* I finally deploy this mess for real.

I'd like to note that it took five readings to notice that maybe the SUDDEN DISCO BALL was suposed to be out of place, because we all know it ought to be there
22:52

You don't have a disco ball in your coding corner?
