Small Nim js fib benchmark

Oh yeah and we're so bad at code size. Stop the fear mongering.

Small Nim js fib benchmark

Unfortunately, since webpages are loaded often, and many people are on a limited data connection, code size is a non-negligible part of JavaScript performance.

Nimble on Termux uses invalid temp folder

You can probably just clone the repo or use it has a submodule and then add it with --path when compiling But best to use the termux package since it has fixes for this unless you specifically need devel. If not then you can apply this patch file before building devel

Nimble on Termux uses invalid temp folder

Nimble on Termux(Android) (current devel version) tries to access /data/local/tmp/nimble_19543/. How can I change the path of the temporary folder? How can I "install" a package (like bigints) without using nimble. Even on a rooted Android device it's hard to make /data/local/tmp accessible for

Internal compiler error - how to debug?

I have managed to reduce the size of a source file which triggers a compiler error - see bug 19984. Now commenting out a single line makes this source file compile. Thanks for Hint, Helmut

Nim 2: "Memory can be shared effectively between threads without copying in Nim version 2"

I guess we need an API for it. But here are the required steps for `ref T`. (For dedicated types like `SharedPtr[T]` it is easier): * Ensure the destination is still empty so that no unprotected RC decrements can happen. * Ensure there is no race on the destination location. * Use an atomi

Nim 2: "Memory can be shared effectively between threads without copying in Nim version 2"

Is '''cast(gcsafe)''' an answer to this problem we can rely on?

You need to compare this figure to the result

You will have a reduced number of results from the search engine, and at the same time have the time you need to scroll and examine the results. When you want to search for a specific website, you need to restrict the URLs that will be included in the search. Example of site search on Google To

Why I enjoy using the Nim programming language at Reddit.

Since you're working on data with Nim, perhaps could you give me feedback on Nexus' ORM, if you have the time? You can't do joins yet, but for my own purposes it has worked quite well.

Nim 2: "Memory can be shared effectively between threads without copying in Nim version 2"

When I'm just curious about the implementation details, I read the C code. And as I can tell, it's safe after moving, as `local` is then set to `nil` (, which is the side effect of moving.) But the operation of moving can be unsafe, as it's unknown if `move` is an atomic operation. You may need

How to add a file to a project without importing

Do you mean that you don't need anything from `startup.nim`, but need it to run? If so, from startup import nil Run

How to add a file to a project without importing

By `include` -ing it: `include startup` . Combine with `when` block you can decide whether to include `startup1.nim` or `startup2.nim` or others during the compilation. @templatedperson > What's the use case for this? To treat both `main.nim` and `startup.nim` as a single package, as opposed t

How to add a file to a project without importing

What's the use case for this?

Nim 1.6.10 RC2

Can we automate testing on Nimble libraries ? I have tested it on nim-lang/bigints. No bugs, no obvious speed regressions.

So, the answer is: "no way"

Small Nim js fib benchmark

I played with `nim js` and recorded the results here : It shows that `nim js` compiled JavaScript code is as fast as native JavaScript code for this particular example. Tested on `nodejs` and `js78`. It also shows that `nim e fib.nim`

Why I enjoy using the Nim programming language at Reddit.

You founded Pushbullet? I don't use it anymore, but in the mid 2010's that tool was one of the best things since sliced bread. I had my phone and all my devices hooked up to my browser and would just text + message everyone from there. Great stuff!

Why I enjoy using the Nim programming language at Reddit.

I started to work at Reddit when data team was quite small and got to choose my own tech, back then the tool was not that important for reddit as it is now. Founding Pushbullet was great but it did not use Nim, wish I would know about Nim back then. Same with game Istrolid, i wish I would have u

Nim 2: "Memory can be shared effectively between threads without copying in Nim version 2"

Pff so use `cast(gcsafe)` to make the compiler shut up.

Nim 2: "Memory can be shared effectively between threads without copying in Nim version 2"

Is that safe? How can we tell? What are the rules with multithreading and ARC? For us who didn't implement it we're just left guessing about what we can and can't do here.. This example "works", but I have no idea if it actually works (added in some echos to make sure the string is actually move

Via `echo string(someSql)`

How to add a file to a project without importing

By using `import startup`. There are other ways via `--import` on the command line or in some config file but these are bad. ;-)

Nim 2: "Memory can be shared effectively between threads without copying in Nim version 2"

This runs into the dreaded `is not GC-safe as it accesses 'g' which is a global using GC'ed memory` error though.

Untested but what about: type X = ref object a: string var g: X proc foreign {.thread.} = var local = X(a: "abc") g = move local spawn foreign() # g now has an X Run

How to add a file to a project without importing

Let's say the project consists of two files: `main.nim` (project file) and `startup.nim`. I don't want to import `startup.nim`, but I want to compile and link it. How to do it?

nvim-summon: Neovim plugin for adding standerd library imports

One of the most annoying things when writing Nim code is having to add imports when you use symbols from the standard library. I created a proof-of-concept Neovim plugin to make it easier:

Nim 2: "Memory can be shared effectively between threads without copying in Nim version 2"

Araq's recent post "A cost model for Nim" states that "Memory can be shared effectively between threads without copying in Nim version 2". This is related to a problem I have been struggling with for a long time. Basically, the problem is this: * I have a program with two threads, A and B.

Nim 1.6.10 RC2

It works great for me (although the choosenim upgrade step failed while trying to update nimsuggest because I had VSCode running). It is nice that using the incorrect -mm:orc switch fails with a much better error.

problems with gcc.exe and gcc.linkexe

looks like one lib your app depend on is linked with glibc dynamic and it was not built with musl statically as you wanted. (Maybe libnss ) as suggested in different occasion with same error. Not sure which linux you are using but i will suggest using a fully musl built linux distro like alpine

> I also tried to put some random text istead of musl-gcc and got no error so > they seem to just do nothing Are you sure you're set Nim to use GCC? For example on macOS the default is clang. Try also adding `--cc:gcc` in addition to your flags. And yeah, if you're using httpclient for anything
