Were just waiting on WASM to be able to access the DOM APIs directly, and then all languages will be first class citizens on the web, and then RIP JavaScript.

Fortran is still a good language for some purposes I think.
And I feel the same way, C++ tries to solve the problem of having too many features by adding more features.
To answer my own question: I believe it's a runtime error: https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/std/any/trait.Any.html#method.downcast
What if I specify the wrong type? let retrieved = storage.get::<SomeOtherType>();?
Is it a runtime error or a compile time error?
I'd rather believe it's a bunny than acknowledge snails that large exist.
I abandoned poetry after it was unable to install a specific version of pytorch I was using.
In pip I would do something like pip3 install torch torchvision torchaudio --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu118, but IIRC poetry didn't support the --index-url option.
I wouldn't consider Julia statically-typed; am I wrong?
The question mine as well be "what is your favorite compiled language?". There is a lot of overlap between the possible answers.
I hear you. It's no good to just cede ownership of a word and allow others to define it however suits them. But... it's Twitter, getting into a good faith philosophical discussion about the definitions of words ain't going to happen, so in many cases it's better to just not bring up the controversial words at all. Guess there's pros and cons to each.
I agree. That's why I suggest (or more like implied) that when we know we have different definitions of a word, we avoid using that word. It's a good thing to at least try if two people really care about understanding.
"Woke" is a problem because people have different definitions, and no matter what Webster or any other authority says the definition is, people will continue to have differing definitions.
How can we reach understanding when we don't even agree on the definition of words?
This is way to nuanced to deal with on fucking Twitter. If you use the word "woke" on Twitter, expect a lot of misunderstanding, talking past each other, and bad faith arguments to follow.

Deno looks interesting.
But Bun choosing Zig makes me think their priorities are not my priorities. As of now, you choose Zig (a not-yet-stable language) because you want to learn Zig and make a neat side-project. Those are not my priorities. Zig offers no unique advantages other than neat new syntax.
Deno chose Rust, which, like Zig, is new, but Rust has reached 1.0 and offers a unique advantage with its safety features. I'm not saying anything about the greatness of Rust here, only that Rust does offer unique advantages, and Rust could be chosen because of general priorities.
Bun chose Zig and then worked backwards and formed their priorities around Zig. Deno formed their priorities and their priorities lead them to Rust.
That's how I feel anyway.
