Every so often rust-analyzer in VS Code doesn't use the latest code after a cargo update and the only way I've found to fix it is a cargo clean. This means that I have to wait 5 minutes for the next build, painful. Just because of one project update. I would LOVE a faster build.
Extra info: the updates come from my dependencies that utilize my private repositories via a git = "[path]". The rust-analyzer is pulling from a cache or older version for some reason and I don't know where it is or why.
Cursorless. It's a spoken-language programming interface that allows the programmer (of basically any language) to use specific words to target existing text, move the underlying cursor/selection relative to that target, and then run a specific modification. Think of VIM but for voice.
It runs in VSCode atm as a couple extensions along with an install of the audio tool Talon.

My current favorite is mostly Rust-based with the tide crate, tide-jsx crate, vanilla JS, postgres crate, and Postgres in Docker. Super easy, super fast (to develop and run), but I haven't made any large web projects with this stack yet, just small stuff.
That would be cool, seeing RGB GOL cells moving outward. Maybe instead of 0 or 1 brightness you could just round it for the cell's purposes, maybe having a const float for flexibility: if it's greater than threshold then it's "on".
That's awesome! What are your thoughts on keeping the colors of your face as they naturally are and as the GoL algorithm acts on the pixels, you blend the colors together?
From my experience JS is primarily used to manipulate the DOM. I haven't looked into it, but if you're correct that WASM cannot manipulate the DOM then your question, to me, is tantamount to "Why aren't people using forks to eat soup?".
I would love a staticly-typed, compiled language to come along and replace JS. If anyone is aware of how I can write Rust in place of JS, please let me know. For now, I suffer/enjoy JS.
Thanks for the suggestions. I appreciate it.
