Protocol Buffers: https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

ProtocolBuffers’ OneOf message addresses the case of having a message with many fields where at most one field will be set at the same time. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

That's definitely the bigger thing. I think something like Protocol Buffers (Protobuf) is what you're looking for there. Output the data and consume it by something that can handle the analysis. Source: over 1 year ago

These protocols prevent an O(N x M) explosion of code that have to solve for many cases. For example, since JSON is an almost ubiquitous format for wire transfer (although other things do exist like protobufs), if I had N data formats that I want to serialize, I only need to write N serializers/deserializers (SerDes). If there was no such narrow waist and there were M alternatives to JSON in wide usage, I would... Source: over 1 year ago

gRPC uses protocol buffers (it is an open source message format) as the default method of communication between client and server. Also, gRPC uses HTTP/ 2 as the default protocol. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

That's true for a vast majority of devs, but not for everyone. There are people like Jon Blow and projects like https://vlang.io. - Source: Hacker News / 10 days ago

V uses a GC by default, but it's easily disabled per function/module via the @[manualfree] attribute or for the entire project via `v -gc none` https://vlang.io. - Source: Hacker News / 23 days ago

The creator of V made some big claims that raised a few eyeballs, they've gained a reasonable following over the years, have a pretty serious looking website (https://vlang.io) a beer-money level Patreon following and some corporate partnerships/sponsors. However have experienced some pretty brutal takedowns over the years, with some of the bolder claims about the language/compiler being exposed as being. A word I... - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

Fingers crossed for vlang[0]. It's like golang with better types and more syntactic sugar. Feels like a proper upgrade from Python. I really hope they succeed. [0]: https://vlang.io/. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

And again a No true Scotsman. If that's the kind of attitude you have towards languages, you'll appreciate V infinitely more than you might be appreciating Rust. After all, it offers better solutions than Rust, like autofree, they just aren't there yet :). Source: 11 months ago
