twolodzko/rusch: Minimal Scheme implemented in Rust

A partial lisp-implementation in Rust.

I’m a bit biased, but IMHO writing a minimal lisp interpreter is a great project to learn a great variety of features of any programming language.

Snapchat se cherche de nouveaux leviers publicitaires - Next

Snapchat testera bientôt l’intégration de publicités dans l’espace de son interface dévolu aux conversations entre amis. Evan Spiegel, son CEO, justifie cette décision par la nécessité de trouver de nouveaux leviers pour soutenir la croissance de l’entreprise. Il illustre dans le même temps la course à la performance publicitaire dans laquelle sont engagés les grands réseaux sociaux.

It means few storage compared to other social networks. A similar usage can be found with Signal. Signal allows it with the conversation settings.

Zero items, the field i not set at all.

Avoid that: pass an array and call it a day

Be Simple | Matthias Endler

Totally agree.

I keep my life simple because I know my time is limited. Time and health are my best proxies for happiness.

How?

Mostly by saying no.

No streaming subscriptions. No gym memberships. No Instagram and TikTok. 6 years old shoes and wardrobe. No meetings if possible. No commute; I work remotely. No property; I'm a happy tenant. No trips. No great home cinema setup. Limited tooling on the computer. No notion or Obsidian if a text file + git is enough.

On the other side, relying on reddit or HN for comments is exclusive.

Simple means focused.

Yes, there’s a creative process and they allow themselves to be creative, but they do so in a very constrained environment: their office. While others chase trends, they do the thing they’re always doing.
