The shortest ooc quine
👋 This page was last updated ~12 years ago. Just so you know.
A few days ago I posted an ooc quine. But while browing HackerNews, I found an even shorter one. The shortest!
Here it is, in its full glory
Can’t see anything? That’s an empty file. It will compile and run just fine. ooc doesn’t require a main function - you can just shove code in there that will run at the program’s initialization. If there’s none, no big deal! It’ll just not run anything.
That’s one nice side-effect of simple design.
Here's another article just for you:
Getting in and out of trouble with Rust futures
I started experimenting with asynchronous Rust code back when futures 0.1
was all we had - before async/await
. I was a Rust baby then (I’m at least
a toddler now), so I quickly drowned in a sea of .and_then
, .map_err
and Either<A, B>
.
But that’s all in the past! I guess!
Now everything is fine, and things go smoothly. For the most part. But even
with async/await
, there are still some cases where the compiler diagnostics are,
just, so much.
