Hi guys, I'm a soydev trying to learn rust. It's hard, especially with the references, ownership, the compiler goes crazy every time and I just throw all the references, dereference until it stops. I'm not used to it coming from JS. Do you have some resource, tips to improve on this? Thank you very much. Side note: what is your...
They're very useful for the boilerplate stuff and it's somewhat rewarding to type out 3-4 letters, hit tab and wind up with half a dozen lines in a bash script or config file.
They tend to get in the way more for complicated tasks, but I have learned to use them as a psychology trick: if I have writer's block, I just let them pump out something wrong since it's easier to critique a blob of text than a blank page.
This is something I’ve been wondering about for a long time. Programming is an activity that makes you face your own fallibility all the time. You write some code, compile it or run it, and then 80% of the time, it doesn’t work exactly the way you imagined. There’s an error message, or it just behaves incorrectly. Then you...
I found for myself that part of the journey in career advancement was looking at code, thinking "wow this really sucks! how could they be so stupid to do this!" and then realize that I wrote it a year or two prior.
Humbleness comes. I've since adopted it as a metric to determine if someone is really a senior or lead or level 60 paladin or whatever.
I'm a beginner who just started to read the rust book, I find it quite tedious and wonder how long does it take u guys to read it? Also, any suggestion after finishing reading the book?
I plowed through it like a textbook on my first read, not really to absorb it 100% but to at least make the cadence and content familiar. I read it as a reference in parts on subsequent reads.
it makes just as little sense to me (programming.dev)
I really do love the fun IDE colors....

I personally use tabs (programming.dev)
Love that quote (lemmy.world)
Google Domains shutting down, assets sold and being migrated to Squarespace (9to5google.com)
Time to migrate I guess.

Are you still using AI tools to help with development?
I trialed GitHub Copilot and used ChatGPT for a bit, but recently I found myself using them less and less....
