08:44:10Amun-RaI use nim python anc C almost exclusively (and zig on rare ocasions); I tried to be a friend with rust but our relationship failed
08:46:03Amun-Ratrue, the rust community is awful but that's something I've never cared about
09:03:03FromDiscord<kapendev> I am dealing with Rust right now because of wit-bindgen and I hate it lol.
09:27:39FromDiscord<dyingupnorth> I just discovered Nim a week ago and I have been learning it everyday extensively since then. This is the most fun I have ever had programming, I started as a brand new programmer a year ago and I have only done Python, Nim is such a elegant beautiful language
09:31:53FromDiscord<nnsee> In reply to @dyingupnorth "I just discovered Nim": i remember those being some of my first emotions towards nim as well when i first got started with it :)

10:11:42FromDiscord<aethrvmn> c, nim, zig↵(@indelusionalizationary)
11:07:46Amun-Rawhat I (ab)use the most are probably distinct types
11:12:24*beholders_eye quit (Ping timeout: 264 seconds)
11:37:28FromDiscord<nevillegg> In reply to @eebahn "nim's entry point is": zig looks extremely overhyped
11:37:51FromDiscord<nevillegg> Just like rust, people would do the same "just rewrite in zig"
11:38:07FromDiscord<nevillegg> And everyone hates that type of programmer
11:38:59Amun-Razig doesn't have rust's zealotry
11:39:07FromDiscord<mr_rowboto> Luckily no one is saying 'just rewrite in x' here.↵Haven't seen the 'rewrite in zig' folk tbh.
11:39:44FromDiscord<mr_rowboto> anyway, guys you have to check out my nim rewrite of `sudo`!!!11111
11:39:44FromDiscord<nevillegg> In reply to @mr_rowboto "Luckily no one is": You will see after 6 years lol
11:39:52FromDiscord<nevillegg> In reply to @mr_rowboto "anyway, guys you have": YESSS

11:40:23FromDiscord<nevillegg> In reply to @Amun-Ra "call it p-sudo-nim": doas-sudo-nim?
11:40:27Amun-Ra;)
11:41:55FromDiscord<mr_rowboto> In reply to @nevillegg "You will see after": tbh I've been orbiting zig for a while... not even near as toxic as rust.↵I think it's because Andrew is very measured and his strategy is not to REEPLAAACCCCC but just to provide an excellent tool to build native code.↵The fact that Uber is usign Zig to cross compile zig is just an excellent example of what rust was supposed to be doing.

11:42:58FromDiscord<nevillegg> Zig having a code of conduct.
11:43:07FromDiscord<nevillegg> Is a big red flag for me.
11:43:39FromDiscord<mr_rowboto> Well, it's def a flag for me... how bad is it?
11:44:09FromDiscord<mr_rowboto> Are developers required to wear pink cyan and white socks?
11:44:44FromDiscord<nevillegg> In reply to @mr_rowboto "Are developers required to": Not sure lol

11:45:12Amun-RaI'm all for no llm/ai policy
11:45:25FromDiscord<nevillegg> In reply to @Amun-Ra "I'm all for no": huh
11:45:39FromDiscord<nevillegg> In reply to @Amun-Ra "I'm all for no": Do you agree that llms help us when searchign stuff
11:45:59Amun-Ranevillegg: yes but I'm not talking about this
11:46:13Amun-RaI'm against writing ai slop prs
11:46:23FromDiscord<nevillegg> In reply to @Amun-Ra "<@1178997991697305641>: yes but I'm": you are talking about like, ai slop stuff, ai written code
11:46:26FromDiscord<nevillegg> right?
11:46:35Amun-Raright
11:46:42FromDiscord<nevillegg> hm
11:46:45FromDiscord<mr_rowboto> Ok, read, it's not that bad.
11:46:47Amun-Raso called vibe coded PRs
11:47:03FromDiscord<nevillegg> In reply to @Amun-Ra "so called vibe coded": definitely agreed it sucks
11:47:09Amun-Ramr_rowboto: true, as much as I don't like CoCs, that one's not bad
11:47:24FromDiscord<nevillegg> Vibe coding shouldnt be on floss projects
11:47:31Amun-Ratrue
11:47:41FromDiscord<mr_rowboto> my only point would be the "inclusive language" part because it has already a bad rep and is usually weaponized.
11:47:58FromDiscord<mr_rowboto> but in any case that's up to the community (and Andrew) for interpretation
11:47:59FromDiscord<mr_rowboto> so it's fine
11:48:26Amun-Ramr_rowboto: yes, that one can be weaponized and can quickly turn into politics
11:48:27FromDiscord<nevillegg> In reply to @mr_rowboto "my only point would": Definitely agreed
11:48:54Amun-Raand thought police
11:48:57FromDiscord<mr_rowboto> It's not overblown at all. In the end any law can be weaponized.
11:49:08FromDiscord<mr_rowboto> Even the "fair" ones.
11:49:13Amun-Ramr_rowboto: not the law of gravity
11:49:16*Amun-Ra runs

11:49:28FromDiscord<mr_rowboto> _specially_ the law of gravity
11:49:41Amun-Rathen again you may be right

11:52:24Amun-RaI finished implementing wasm-wasi target and I gotta say it works perfectly
11:53:01Amun-Rait only required implementing a few js glue functions
11:54:15FromDiscord<nevillegg> In reply to @Amun-Ra "so called vibe coded": Hey what about taking help from AI? Like asking stuff like is there is X library in nimble and stuff? Not code.
11:54:20Amun-Raworks much better than emcc one
11:54:56Amun-Ranevillegg: that's perfectly fine
11:55:15FromDiscord<nevillegg> In reply to @Amun-Ra "<@1178997991697305641>: that's perfectly fine": hm
11:55:55FromDiscord<nevillegg> a
11:56:32Amun-RaI'm only against vibe coding something without any grasp how things one's vibing works; that also applies to finding "bugs" with AI without checking and any understanding the output
11:57:58Amun-RaI used AI for that wasi js glue - AI generated skeleton functions I filled the code into; I use it like google alternative (google is unusable nowadays)
11:58:50Amun-Rajust don't ask AI for things hard to find online… it'll lie to you ;)
12:44:47Amun-Raif anyone wants to test it / 'steal' the wasi glue logic: https://retro.rocks/poirot/wasm/
