"how do we get a reasonable compensation for this" by selling millions of $1000 phones, surely!
Replying to @beuc
"we had to break apart a model we have been working on for fifteen, sixteen years", each new device involves tremendous engineering effort and investment, the core technology fee is our means of answering the question how do we get a reasonable compensation for this.

While checking performance is important, better type checking is the main focus for Ezno. On this simple script, Ezno catches three issues not caught by TSC

Whenever a new tool written in Rust comes out, everyone wants to know how it performs. Now it is out, I have some statistics. It includes STC, another really fast TypeScript checker! See the full benchmark here: github.com/kaleidawave/bench…

Now Ezno's checker is open source I thought it was time for new post. It includes a deep dive into some of the current logic if you are interested in contributing! kaleidawave.github.io/posts/…

If you use TypeScript, are interested in Ezno or have any ideas for improving type checking in JavaScript tools, then I have just made a survey to gather opinions over a few questions. thx 🙏 ezno-survey.pages.dev

With some luck and perseverance I managed to get Rust code compiling for classic Mac OS. I built bindings to Open Transport and then made a little weather app as a demo: Ferris Weather. Check out the post for all the details: wezm.net/v2/posts/2023/rust-…

I built a Rust crate to parse MacBinary and resource fork data. As a testbed I created a webpage that uses the crate compiled to WebAssembly to show the data contained within a file you select and allows you to download individual parts, all client-side. 7bit.org/macbinary/

I found it hard to work out how use the DeRez tool when building my temperature converter for classic Mac OS so I wrote up the details so there's something for the next person to find. wezm.net/v2/posts/2023/derez…

In my ongoing quest to run modern programming languages on classic Mac OS today I wrote a temperature converter in C Nim. C is dealing with the toolbox functions and Nim parsing, converting, and formatting the temperatures. Code: github.com/wezm/classic-mac-…

New video! I’ve published the second and final part of my #Rust URL shortener project. I make it a bit more efficient, add some compile time validations, and finally deploy it to #Deno Deploy on its own domain. youtu.be/bQnab_6K1ok

New video: Building a URL shortener in #Rust that can be deployed to #Deno Deploy. I tried to capture the actual coding process but also tried to edit it so it’s not too slow. youtu.be/d-tsfUVg4II
