InCoding - Week 4
Environment-Friendly Programming Languages and More
Welcome to Week 4!
Hello, world! Today is Pocky & Pretz Day, so for our fourth newsletter, we present you with sweet and lovely programming stories!
Which Programming Languages Use the Least Electricity? 🌎- As citizens of the world, we programmers should also participate in the global effort to achieve Carbon neutrality, right? Let's only use programming languages that use the least electricity and save the world!!! Just kidding. But for battery-powered machines, languages that consume less resources, such as electricity and memory, are more energy-efficient. Click to see which languages can save the world!
Hot Reload Support on .NET 6 🔥 - If you use a language that requires you to build before running the application, it sometimes feels cumbersome to rebuild every code change. Good news to those who use C#! Hot Reload feature, which allows applying your code changes while the application is running without rebuilding, is coming to .NET 6. But don't expect this will always work. Even the Edit and Continue feature, which Visual Studio already supports, does not always work.
(YouTube) Kotlin Also Supports WASM ⚙️ - With application logic involving complex and advanced computation moving to the web frontend more and more, the need for a stable, high-performing program execution environment is more crucial than ever. In the end, we have no choice but to use compiled languages rather than interpreted languages. As a result, the major web browser companies jointly created WebAssembly (WASM), an open standard, portable compilation target, to address this problem. Following the footsteps of other programming languages, Kotlin can now also compile to WASM. Remember, whatever you do, you always end up going low-level!
(Humor) How Docker Was Born 🐋 - When a customer reports a bug, I'm sure you've seen a developer say, "It works on my computer." Well, the best answer to that is, "Then let's send your computer to the customer." So to keep their computers to themselves, developers made Docker! LOL
See you next week! 🍫♥
