Rust

Filter and map fuse into a single pass; collect decides what comes out the other end.

let names: Vec<String> = users
    .iter()
    .filter(|u| u.active)
    .map(|u| u.name.to_uppercase())
    .collect();

More in Systems

RAII file handling in C++ Systems The stream closes itself when it leaves scope, whether the function returns normally or throws. Records and pattern matching in Java Systems A record plus a switch pattern removes most of the ceremony this used to take. Result and the question mark operator in Rust Systems ? propagates the error to the caller, which is why Rust functions rarely need explicit error branches. Worker pool with a wait group in Go Systems Fixed number of goroutines draining a channel, with the group ensuring main waits for all of them. Check a malloc result in C Systems The allocation that nobody checks is the one that fails in production. Null-safe chaining in Kotlin Systems ?. stops at the first null and ?: supplies the fallback, replacing a stack of if statements. Async/await with a task group in Swift Systems Runs the downloads concurrently and collects them, with cancellation propagating to all of them. Context with a timeout in Go Systems Cancels the request and everything downstream of it after two seconds. The defer is not optional.

Random picks

A GitHub Actions workflow for a Node project Build & CI Caches the dependency install, runs on a matrix of versions, and fails the build on a lint error. Pretty-print and query JSON Text Processing jq for the common cases: reformat, pick a path, filter an array, and reshape. Sort and deduplicate lines by a field Text Processing Sorts on the second column and keeps the first row of each group. Extract matches with a regular expression Text Processing grep -o prints only the matching part, which turns grep into a crude extractor. Find the commit that introduced a bug Git Binary search across history. Mark a known good and a known bad commit and git narrows it down for you. Centre a box, two ways Web & CSS Grid is one line. Flex is three and gives you control over the axes separately. Deep clone a value JavaScript structuredClone handles Dates, Maps, Sets and cycles, which JSON round-tripping quietly destroys. Merge dictionaries Python The | operator returns a new dict; |= updates in place. Later keys win in both.
