If you code exclusively using those types (and the `*ptr_t` ones) then you precisely express to both the compiler and the next person reading it what is supposed to be in those variables.
This is true, but usually fewer people die in the construction of those utilitarian housing projects
Is this why the council recently topped a tree on my road that's been breaking up the pavement? We thought they were cutting it down since they dug up all the tarmac around it, but they just knocked the top off, taking something like 98% of the leaves with it, and then put fresh tarmac over the exposed roots. We've been puzzling over that for a week...
It's a thinly veiled advert for Atopile. I don't know if it's a company behind it or just someone with a lot of money to spend on advertising since their about page (and docs) both 404, and the "packages" link sends you to a login screen that tries to unlock 1password. I guess claude can make circuit boards but not functioning websites?
maybe they should go get some then
Yes they have? It's a fairly common method of teaching children sentence structure.
Pedagogy aside, take a look at what books looked like before the printing press.
> for experienced readers syntax parsing happens as automatically as it does in natural language without any need of colors.
If you're reading slowly, yes. The colours help you skim-read.
Why do you feel the need to intentionally hobble yourself? The human eyes can take in a spectacular amount of visual information at a glance, using colour, texture, shape and so on to instantly classify and identify things.
Decades of visual design research have proven that colours and shapes improve understanding and you're using a device capable of complex and rich information display, but you want it to look like a book because ..?
> You do not need to build an API: the server generates HTML and sends it to the client, with no middleman.
You're still building an API, it's just inside the websocket handler rather than http. Essentially this is yet another DIY RPC framework.
Why reinvent everything yet again? jQuery still exists. All the required methods still exist too. You can build a bog standard HTML website and then use progressive enhancement to fetch the next html page and replace the content of the current one with that, which has the benefit of handling middle click perfectly.
On the other, I do think that we should put people in prison for posting on facebook. That way I won't have to keep seeing my crazy uncle at family gatherings!
The actual implementation may have been very janky but the idea itself is sound: If you want to interact with arbitrary services then providing one single protocol (ideally not JSONRPC but hey) with a standard api discovery method and standard starting method call means your super-intelligent machine god can connect to any MCP service with just a URL and figure everything out from there.
That was also the thing that destroyed it for me, since navigating between history entries started getting more and more unreliable and sometimes clicking on the input box would randomly resize the entire window or move it between screens. I don't entirely know how they managed that one.
Why is every company seemingly trying to re-implement agents themselves rather than making their product work with the existing ones?
Like if you're already at the point of setting up stylesheets & classes with a pre-processor why would you do that and not say use scss with some mixins for the more complex reused parts? At that point any IDE plugin that knows CSS can give you completion and your compiled sources will look a lot like the written ones in the dev tools.
I also read his Write Great Code series and generally found it to have some pretty good advice, but it was also full of things like recommendations to never trust compilers and to write lots of arcane unreadable magic code to unlock ultimate speedy hacker cred.
That being said, if you want to learn about ASM in TYOOL 2026 then you could do a lot worse than learning it from someone who doesn't trust compilers and does everything themselves.
