Disposable code is here to stay, but durable code is what runs the world, and it isn't going anywhere either. www.honeycomb.io/blog/disposa...

Disposable Code Is Here to Stay, but Durable Code Is What Runs the World

Every day I seem to run into yet another post with someone solemnly opining that “writing code has never been the hardest part of software engineering. And hey, that’s smashing.

The 0.12 version will start to use Zig language to build Neovim itself.

This should improve overall Neovim development and should not have visible effect on users.

Ah, very nice! I remember thinking how they managed to pull off rendering the sequence diagrams on the fly like that, but never actually bothered to check the sources

TypeScript team: rewrites compiler in Go.

Go community: what do you mean your new compiler takes more than a minute to compile? Unacceptable. Dishonorable even. We are so sorry for this sub par experience. Not how we do things around here.

Two days later: WIP 5x speedup.

HN: why pick Go anyway?

My piece for TIME:

"Ukraine has options. Europe is still in the game.

Ideas on how to mitigate the damage from Trump’s siding with Putin are boiling. As long as we, the people, want to keep our country we love, there is always a way forward."

Never, Never Underestimate Ukraine

My country is not a Banana Republic that will simply bend to President Trump's wishes, writes Illia Ponomarenko.
