"function colors" represent genuine differences in execution contexts (e.g., async vs. sync, CPU vs. GPU) that cannot be eliminated through type systems or syntactic workarounds. It criticizes efforts…
The author, a software developer, finds generative AI tools like Claude highly useful for certain tasks, such as Java Spring Boot development, but notes that local models are only adequate and that th…
After two months of full-time Rust development, the author plans to use Rust instead of C++ for future performance-critical projects. A key reason is that Rust's syntax is cleaner than modern C++, par…
