Fast and Hard Code | Armin Ronacher's Thoughts and Writings
But it’s not just people picking less common languages but also that they are increasingly working with “much harder” technologies. All of a sudden I have seen people do some really impressive stuff with DWARF files, eBPF, custom network drivers, custom crypto and really old computing hardware. Many of these things were previously off-limits for lots of developers. In some cases (eg: crypto) you were even pushed away because those things were intentionally gatekept by the people in the know.
So maybe the world will have more slop, but it might also have more developers in it, that want things to be fast and small.
C'est une idée agréable. Quand je repense aux galères rencontrées sur les ESP32 où tout est difficile. C'est intéressant de pouvoir se pencher plus sur les principes architecturaux et systémiques que sur des galères d'implémentation.
