Might be a song from Kevin MacLeod? His songs get used a lot on the YouTubs.

When I just searched "Kevin MacLeod jazz", the first result was "Acid Trumpet", which seems like it could fit your description.

Yeah, it generally works fine for sauces, but you're not going to get salt to permeate into your noodles from just throwing it on top afterwards, for example.

I enjoy anise-fennel-caraway tea. It doesn't taste as watery as many of the fruit-based teas and not as bitter as black tea and such. I find, it's also decent at clearing out my throat.

Peppermint tea is second place for me, for very much the same reasons. 🙃

Not sure, if I stopped listening to mainstream music around that time, but uh, both of my examples are from 2011, apparently:

  • Kind of a classic response to this question, is "Pumped Up Kicks" from Foster The People. It's got that upbeat melody, and the lyrics are this:

All the other kids with the pumped up kicks
You’d better run, better run, outrun my gun
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks
You’d better run, better run, faster than my bullet.

  • And my other example is "The A Team", apparently originally from Ed Sheeran, and apparently also with an upbeat melody. I think, I only ever listened to a cover version. But yeah, it's about drug use and sex work, and how those kind of necessitate each other...

Krass, dass Wissing ausgetreten ist. Ich konnte mit seiner bisherigen Politik wenig anfangen, aber man bekommt ja auch nur die öffentlichkeitswirksamen Themen mit. Wenn jetzt so viele Minister abhanden kommen, hoffe ich, dass es tatsächlich positiv ist, dass er hier die vielen kleinen Themen weiter führen kann.

"Holist", as in "Looking at it as a whole, that was exhausting". You can see how they typoed and tried to correct it.

"Steuerzahler" ist auch einfach eine großartige Bezeichnung für einen Menschen...

We've got a WebAssembly web-UI at $DAYJOB. Implementation language is Rust, we use the Leptos framework (although other mature frameworks are available for Rust).

Pros:

  • Same language and similar tooling as in the backend. Most libraries work the same way (obviously excluding libraries that read from the filesystem, for example). This is especially good, if you've got lots of "full stack" devs.
  • Same model classes as in the backend. If you change a field, the compiler will force you to fix it on both sides. It is compile-time guaranteed that backend and frontend are compatible.
  • Rust is a nicer language than JS/TS. I find especially Rust's error handling via Result and Option types + pattern-matching works really well for UI stuff. You just hand the Result value over to your rendering stack and that displays either the value or the error. No unset/null variables, no separate error variable, no ternaries.
  • Having a strict compiler makes it less bad when you're lax on testing, and frontend code is a pain to test.

Cons:

  • If you've got pure frontend folks, or people who are deep into React or Angular or whatever, those are not going to be as productive.
  • The JS ecosystem is massive, you just won't find as many component libraries for Rust, which can definitely also reduce productivity.

With me being in a team with few frontend folks, I would definitely opt for it again.

Netscape. Specifically the homophobe guy that's now leading the Chromium-based browser Brave.

I'm being a jackass about it, because that was 28 years ago. You can't say they should stop bloating the web and then bring up an example from before Google even existed.

We're talking something like 500 full-time devs currently working on Firefox vs. a handful of unpaid volunteers working on the forks.

So, they might survive, but they won't make a ton of progress. And security vulnerabilities would become increasingly difficult to keep fixing.

 

So, this uses a macro, but if you're thinking anything is possible with a macro, it's actually not in Rust. The input does still need to parse as valid Rust tokens.

Which means the authors asked themselves at some point: Is the Rust syntax a superset of the Python syntax?
And well, it's not. In particular, some Python keywords will just be tokenized as an identifier (like a variable name).

But it is close enough that the authors decided against requiring a massive string to be passed in, which does amuse me. 🙃
