@csepp damn, I guess I never really had to solve that sort of thing, I'm not sure I understand what you're asking me in the first question.

@neauoire In more concrete terms, you have code that only cares if its input can be indexed randomly, or maybe iterated in sequence. A simple example is something like grep. If it's generic enough, you could grep through RAM, or through messages streaming through a network socket. But yeah, some people just don't realize others have different needs. Favoring compiler simplicity is entirely valid if you want to self host on simple hardware. |
@csepp I'm just ranting over here, but maybe all these people are solving problems I haven't had to contend with yet too.
If that's the case it's a bit frustrating to see them take hits at projects that tackle different scales of problems that shouldn't be hindered by the tools they need for their scale of problems~
