  • You’re definitely not supposed to be looking at what anon is doing and finding it good. This is more like a zoo where the exhibit is the strange, chaotic and sometimes racist creature that is Anon.

    Personally I read them mostly for the humor, and mostly for the exhibition of the strange world view that Anon sometimes have. It’s interesting (concerning?) to be reminded that people like Anon exist out there.












  • Hmm don’t really agree, as you can observe different parts of space on different time periods due to light’s finite speed and time dilation and such. Not all parts of space are at the same time simultaneously. Also, relativity tells us that the state you observe is different from the state of another observer. So you can’t really write this number of the universe down (or at least, you can only write your own personal number down but it won’t be the same as anyone else’s number).






  • How do you find people who are interested in long-term relationships online?

    In my experience, this is rare. Most people who meet others online started as friends with some common interest. I met my wife like this. It was never with the intention of a long term relationship, we were just friends online. We knew each other as friends for 2 years before getting together.

    I would recommend DnD (or other games) as others have suggested too.

    Also this is kind of random and I have no idea if it is a good idea, but maybe try https://duolicious.app/ - I saw it randomly the other day and your post reminded me of it.



  • The borrow checker

    This is indeed pretty unique.

    the way it handles exceptions and nulls

    This is really just the fact that Rust has sum types - but those kinds of types have been used in many functional languages (Haskell for example) for a long time.

    the way it handles stack/heap

    This is just the same as C and C++ and any other low-level language that requires you to distinguish between the stack and heap.

    composition pattern instead of oop

    I mean if you’re only looking at OOP languages then this will be new, but functional languages have done this for a long time.

    So yea, I think a big part of what makes Rust great is that it has managed to take these really, really good ideas from functional programming languages and made them work in a language that is not entirely functional. This leads to a perfect blend/best of both worlds with regards to OOP and functional programming :)
