the formatter doesn’t support pure HTML, or Vue

Both are being worked on 😉

There’s already partial Vue support now, but only the JS part so far. CSS formatter is also on the way.

Good question! 😂 maybe I’m overthinking it, but you seem to be making the point that it’s silly for people to like WASM based on the argument the JVM already exists and people are not fond of it/Java. If that’s not the point, why did you make the meme at all?

Of course, technically you can compile anything to almost anything. But I don’t think linking to a project that’s unmaintained for 15 years really helps your argument.

MSFT is known for changing names a lot, but not for killing technologies.

Silverlight would like a word ;)

Easy: GritQL

But I’m heavily biased, since I’m also the one implementing GritQL support into Biome :)

Second would be Rust macros, but they’re both more difficult to write and language-specific.

You are right. But I think similar secondary benefits also come from using the borrow checker. Rust developers, by necessity, try to avoid using circular references and prefer immutability where they can. Both of these are advantages because they tend to make for systems that are easier to understand and are easier to maintain.

Yeah, it has its nice moments, but I also see it make mistakes and a lot of uselessly verbose text. It’s sometimes useful, sometimes funny, but mostly just noisy. Could be genuinely useful if it keeps improving though.

Only if your definition of soundness includes that leaks can never occur, which is not how Rust generally defines soundness. I think most Rust users know that the language doesn’t prevent leaks at this point.

I use Astro, because it allows me to write posts in Markdown and publish as a static website, though there are certainly other solutions that allow you to achieve the same thing. I just bundle it up in an Nginx Docker image and host it on Fly.io. If you want you can look at my setup here, though beware it isn’t documented (even the README is already out of date): https://github.com/arendjr/phebe

I would suggest writing blog posts about topics that you’re familiar with. Make sure you write the posts such that also people not too familiar with the material can follow it. Share your posts, and ask for questions and feedback.

Ahh, that's good to know! Thanks, together with @[email protected] fix that resolves it :+1:
