• Idk if this is r/techsupportgore or r/softwaregore

  Something that helps me is If you want to reformat, Winderstat scans your drive and shows you the size of every folder, plus a visual representation so you see whats taking up more space exactly. Source: 10 months ago

• Game is taking up too much space and crashing

• 2 issues, not enough disk space to open some stuff on my computer, and defragmenting has been stuck at 75 percent for hours.

• Things I've learned about building CLI tools in Python

  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 / 8 months ago

• Ah, Go, with its simple and straightforward syntax, where things just make sense (most of the time, before generics were added)

  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
