Handling The inferred type of x cannot be named without a reference to y

This error is notoriously fickle to reproduce or resolve. It can always be fixed by adding an export type for a name TS needs to compile your types. Here's how to find where the change needs to be made:

1. Navigate to the source of the diagnostic in the repo's _tsc.js file (line 52151 as of TS 5.7.3). You can search for reportLikelyUnsafeImportRequiredError to see all references to it if needed. Add a breakpoint in at that position:

if (!attributes) {
  // ADD BREAKPOINT HERE ⬇️
 context.encounteredError = true

hi, i'm daniel. i'm a 15-year-old high school junior. in my free time, i hack billion dollar companies and build cool stuff.

3 months ago, I discovered a unique 0-click deanonymization attack that allows an attacker to grab the location of any target within a 250 mile radius. With a vulnerable app installed on a target's phone (or as a background application on their laptop), an attacker can send a malicious payload and deanonymize you within seconds--and you wouldn't even know.

I'm publishing this writeup and research as a warning, especially for journalists, activists, and hackers, about this type of undetectable attack. Hundreds of applications are vulnerable, including some of the most popular apps in the world: Signal, Discord, Twitter/X, and others. Here's how it works:

Cloudflare

By the numbers, Cloudflare is easily the most popular CDN on the market. It beats out competitors such as Sucuri, Amazon CloudFront, Akamai, and Fastly. In 2019, a major Cloudflare outage k

Bevy + egui in a text-based, turn-based adventure game.

I won't go too far into the nitty details (lol), but this is generally how I've structured my WIP mostly-text-based, turn-based adventure game. I emphasize that because I suspect this approach doesn't work all that well for other styles of games. Specifically, because practically everything in my game happens on-click; there's very little running in the background.

TL;DR?

Nah, I strained my eyes for this.

Implementing complex numbers and FFT with just datatypes (no floats)

In this article, I'll explain why implementing numbers with just algebraic datatypes is desirable. I'll then talk about common implementations of FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) and why they hide inherent inefficiencies. I'll then show how to implement integers and complex numbers with just algebraic datatypes, in a way that is extremely simple and elegant. I'll conclude by deriving a pure functional implementation of complex FFT with just datatypes, no floats.

Legend of Worlds

⚔️ Salutations fellow legends! ⚔️

Wow! Time has passed quickly since our last blog post, however, much progress has been made! Today, we're going to go over the technical aspects of the core engine for Legend of Worlds and what has been accomplished so far. The core of the engine has been completed, and now we are at the point where we can focus on gameplay and world creation logic!

Legend of Worlds is a cross-platform, cross-play, 2D online sandbox multiplayer experience where you can join, play, create and share player created worlds. This blog post covers the open-source game engine I've created in order to build this game.

The Problem

In the last post, we discussed the benefits of Rust and WebAssembly in our game engine architecture. Rust gave us many benefits, but one issue it gave us was long compile times, depending on the more code and libraries we jammed into one module. This was getting to be a problem, as a Rust project starts off on my machine as a few seconds to compile

Let's list here crates that enhance Rust as a language.

It not "batteries" like in stdx, but Rust-specific crates for workarounds for various missing features and experimental ideals from non-accepted/postponed RFCs, or just hacky tricks.

The list is supposed to contain (mostly) crates that are internal to Rust, not ones for making Rust deal with "external world" like other languages bindings, file formats, protocols and so on.

Primary focus should be on crates that are not easy to find by conventional means (e.g. no algorithm name, format or protocol to search for).

Note that quality of the listed crates may vary from proof-of-concept to stable-and-widely-used.

What the Heck is a Monad, Anyway?

Querying one's favorite search engine with the text "a monad is" yields this answer on StackOverflow, which explains, in excruciating mathematical symbology, what a monad in fact is. But, don't worry. Understanding monads doesn't require you to learn the nuances of such concepts as moirails and eigenfunctors. I would suggest that the concept of monads can be distilled into a clearer single sentence.

A monad is a control abstraction that defines a composition of effectful functions.

Let's unpack.
