@ZeroCool my desk is currently 52,572,500 miles long but I need a bigger one.

This is why I try my damnedest not to write in weakly typed languages.

string + object makes no logical sense, but the language will be like “'no biggie, you probably meant string + string so let’s convert the object to string”! And so all hell breaks loose when the language’s assumption is wrong.

zalgotext ,

You don’t necessarily need types for that kind of thing though, a strict linter that flags that code works just as well

Blackmist ,

Some automatic conversion is fine.

a=3+0.2

print(“Hello {name}. You are {age} years old”)

That kind of thing. But the principle of least surprise definitely applies. If you get to the point where you’re adding two booleans and a string, I feel like the language should at least say something. At least until the technology exists for it to physically reach out of your screen and slap you.

Who would use that kind of type coercion? Who? I want to see his face.

dejected_warp_core ,

I take this as less of a “I can’t use this intuitive feature reliably” thing and more of a “the truth table will bite you in the ass when you least expect it and/or make a mistake” thing.

Just use a formatter. It’ll show you that the second one is two statements:

  1. {} (the empty block)
  2. +[] coerce an empty array to a number: new Number(new Array())
dejected_warp_core ,

I totally get that: use the right tools and you’ll be okay. This applies to many technologies in this space.

With respect, I still take this advice like hearing “look out for rattlesnakes if you’re hiking there.” It might be safer to just hike where there are no rattlesnakes, instead.

flying_sheep ,
@flying_sheep@lemmy.ml avatar

You’re right, of you have compete freedom, do that. If the place you want or need to go to is most comfortably reachable via rattlesnake road, bring boots.

In other words, if you don’t think the wasm landscape is mature enough to build a web thing with it, you are stuck with JavaScript, but you don’t have to rawdog it. I haven’t run in a single weird thing like this in years of writing typescript with the help of its type system, ESLint and a formatter.

marcos ,

It’s not even the coercion that is the problem here. The types are already bad by themselves.

Docker fan mindset

frank , in How big is your desk?

I have a KVM switch so I can control my array of computers with one monitor setup. I have a normal desk and a big closet to house all the computers.

PlexSheep ,

We just have a warehouse with a few big computers. We just use our desks to access them.

it satisfies the borrow checker or else it gets the hose again

5714 ,

If the borrow checker fails, the thing in their hand might throw some very effective error messages.

Wooki ,

method exists, but the trait bounds were not satisfied

TootSweet , in How I date

I think that’s just how every Rust developer learns Rust.

The Rust compiler tends to turn my impostor syndrome to 11. I assume she has some kind of humiliation kink and I do not consent.

Anticorp ,

You didn’t say the safe word! The lessons continue.

lauha ,

“But you didn’t tell me the safe word”

“That’s not the safe word either”

AeonFelis ,

This is Rust. You don’t need a safe word - safe is the default. You need an unsafe word instead.
