Your benchmark suggests Deepseek V4 pro performs worse than Deepseek V4 flash? That is in an interesting result. Any comments on that outcome?

Nice job! It would be helpful when using public transportation to see the names of places overlaid on the map.

Any practical tips for hardened security when programming? Don't want to be exposed to npm/pip/cargo installing password/browser cookie stealers. What worries me is the little to no isolation between the dev environment and the rest of the OS for day to day use.

That sounds plausible. Vercel equivalent for the Python ecosystem. UV deploy

They just need to add a task runner feature (already being worked on) and the one tool to rule them all would be complete. Package manager, linter, formatter, type checker, task runner. Am I missing something? Maybe a build tool?

$15,000 CPU is better than a $5000 CPU?

You can do all the benchmarks you want, but if you don't factor in price, then of course the more expensive product (in general) is going to be better.

It is the same thing with the Snapdragon Elite and Mediatek Dimensity 9400. The SDE is the faster processor and more expensive.

People do not seem to understand that these chips are in different price brackets, even between Qualcomm and Mediatek. That is why there is a discrepancy in performance.

Would not be fair to compare a $20 toaster to a $50 toaster and say that the $20 toaster is slower.

No harm if all these requirements are met by some framework to cater to the Rust community.

In my opinion you should for 99% of cases use Golang for your web backend. Any other languages there are tradeoffs you are making.

Go:

- very easy to learn and grok Go code

- static typing

- fast compilation

- single binary (easier deployment)

- strong standard library

- large library ecosystem

- go routines for concurrency

- highly performant

Maybe Java,Kotlin and C# but they are still an order of magnitude more complex and resource heavy than Go.

Good concept!

The important thing to know when learning hotkeys is how to perform the same action using application UI.

Otherwise the keyboard becomes an obscure medium for discovering application functionality

I would love to have a version of Caddy written in Rust. I believe that this is going to happen some point in the future. Nginx has the best performance but not a good UX compared to caddy. Rewriting to Rust or C++ will make it the ultimate reverse proxy.

The solution to the poor standard library in my opinion is for someone like NPM to step up and provide the defacto language library. It will help in reducing the sheer volume of JavaScript dependencies to only one library.

It is genius. As a "startup", for free you are getting community, traffic, marketing and terabytes of free image hosting.

Plus think of it this way, websites fight tooth and nail to stay relevant to the user. You win that fight if they "install" your app. Joining their Discord server means you have installed their application to one of the most frequented messaging apps. If this was a website, you would have forgotten about it after couple uses. At least when it is in your discord server dock, it is visible to the user and in their mind.
