Hare seems interesting, but does it allow any kind of dynamic linkage? I just compiled a simple Hello World program, and its size is 217 kb - after stripping.

$ cat test.ha
use fmt;

export fn main() void = {
        fmt::println("Hello world!")!;
};

$ file test
test: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), statically linked, stripped
$ ls -lhn test
-rwxr-xr-x 1 1000 1000 217K Feb 27 18:03 test

I am called a srnior developer and I haven’t done a project in my spare time in many years. Not because I don’t want to, but because I do enough of that at work and I lack the energy. Most people I know are in the same boat.

Oh… is Reddit still around?

Proud of today’s code. Deeply ashamed of yesterday’s code. That is our lot in life. At least it shows us our development.

Eh. If you are not using punch tape, are you even really programming?

What a terrible loss. I love KJ and Geordie is a huge part of the reason why. RIP.

Un-fucking-believable. Time to fire everyone in any leedership capacity and start from scratch with people who are not caricatures of mid 20th century machoism.

It will certainly be interesting to see what comes of this.

I actually agree with that sentiment. Put more billionaires in tin cans and drop them in the ocean where its deepest.

Do… do they understand how this works? How anything works?

That first one alone, sensational. Also, Hildegard von Blingin’? Love that stuff!

Two very different examples:

Modest Mussorsky’s “Pictures at an exhibition” was originally written for piano (that was all the poor guy had available), and it took Maurice Ravel to turn it into an orchestral version and make it popular world wide. Both versions are great and have their own qualities, but I far prefer Ravel’s version (Although Khatia Buniatishvili’s rendition here is so really really good).

Bob Dylan’s “Lay Lady Lay”. The original is… well… it’s a Bob Dylan song. There is a really good cover version by Ministry that, althought technically is the same song, takes it to a whole other level. Love it.

I know, right? And the way every one kept defending him, saying that if he was found guilty it would only be due to his autism. And then he was found guilty, and they still firmly believed he was innocent. And then he led the authorities to the remains of his ex wife and and the rest is history. It was quite something to behold from some distance.
