The TrapC compiler can avoid most memory-safe-pointer boundary checks by using AI code reasoning (thenewstack.io)

Turns out we don't need a borrow checker after all. We can just use vague "AI code reasoning". This seems highly credible and I'm sure we're going to see a fully functional compiler and source release within the next 10 decades.

[...] errors in Go are treated as first-class citizens (values) [which] has a deeply-rooted history in programming language theory and the main goal of Go as a language itself (rauljordan.com)

[Meta] Request for Community Description (programming.dev)
submitted 9 months ago by Kissaki@programming.dev to c/programmingcirclejerk@programming.dev

Please add a community/community scope description.

The community description currently says

CircleJerkCommunity at request of a user.

But what is a programming circle jerk? What is a circle jerk? What is desired and accepted content? What's the expectation and scope on content?

It would help understanding what content to expect (subscribe, block, keep neutral?) and what may be postable or not.

(I was surprised about some post content being in this community and wanted to check my expectation/understanding.)

I once spent three days debugging a single line of code. When I finally found the missing semicolon, my team praised me as a “coding wizard.” (medium.com)

NGINX config language grates on me. Whyyy did they have to come up with their own config format? It is so much nicer to configure Caddy with JSON file for example. (news.ycombinator.com)

Well, it's always amusing how they discover that applications can run locally without depending on someone else's servers and maybe without pulling unverified code from 50 random repos. (news.ycombinator.com)
