The borrowchecker is what I like the least about Rust

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2026-01-04 23:27:50

Written 2025-07-18 Among the 2010's cohort of programming languages, Rust is probably the most widely lauded. The main selling point of Rust is that it manages to combine speed and low-level control with a high level of bug-resistance, more commonly referred to as safety. The main innovation of Rust - really, its claim to fame - is its borrowchecker: the part of its compiler that enforces Rust's ownership rules and thereby allows Rust to achieve all the memory safety that garbage collected lan

2025-06-23 How to store Go pointers from assembly The standard Go toolchain comes with an assembler out of the box.

More mundanely, Go comes with a garbage collector. This post explains how to make these two components play nice, if we want to manipulate Go pointers from our assembly. Preamble: Go’s

While working on a paper about allocation profiling in VMProf I got curious about how quickly the RPython GC can allocate an object. I wrote a small RPython benchmark program to get an idea of the order of magnitude. The basic idea is to just allocate an instance in a tight loop: class A ( object ): pass def run ( loops ): # preliminary idea, see below for i in range ( loops ): a = A () a . i = i The RPython type inference will find out that instances of A have a single i field, which is an i
