My high school also had a hidden copy of Unreal Tournament squirreled away on a network share somewhere, half of CS class always finished up with 20 minutes to spare to get in a few rounds. Good times.
Hey all, author here!
I’ve been fiddling around with learning x86 assembly recently, and was surprised at the lack of readily available, easy to use documentation. I did find [zneak/x86doc](https://github.com/zneak/x86doc), which does an excellent job at parsing Intel’s official reference, but I struggled to find some common instructions since they were nested under op-specific pages. Godbolt’s [compiler-explorer](https://github.con/compiler-explorer/compiler-explorer) also provided a nice docs-on-hover tool, which borrows from x86doc as well. I put these together to create a site that allows searching through all instructions from a simple UI.
Let me know what you think! The project is still very fresh, so if you’re looking for a place to knock out your last Hacktoberfest PR, come take a look :)

+1 for Elixir. If you like Rust syntax, you should also check out [Gleam], it compiles to Erlang and has full interop w/ Erlang/Elixir.

I've tried to self-host email for my domain a couple times over the past few years, and I always end up falling back to a paid host for this reason; I rarely use email these days, but when I do (or usually when I'm expecting an email from a recruiter or other business-related sender) I need some sense of confidence that it will go through correctly. The lack of ability to confidently send via self-hosted setup definitely feels intentional, which sucks.
Great article btw!
To say that you never have to think about those considerations in Svelte is pretty unfair - reactive declarations/statements are functionally equivalent to hooks, and they also carry a somewhat nonintuitive cognitive load until you've begun to "think in reactivity". It's also worth considering that hooks, while unintuitive in function, do use intuitive, non-magical syntax (unlike Svelte's reactive syntax). FWIW I like both, I just think they're both equally unintuitive until you make the mental connection.
Not OP, but have used Elixir pretty extensively; the major selling points for me are the friendlier syntax and more active community support, plus with rebar3 + Elixir's seamless Erlang interop you really don't give up anything, you can use any existing Erlang/Elixir libraries with a single syntax. It's pretty great.
