Taiwan and China are two separate countries.

Thunderbird is going hard on Rust all of a sudden. Recently they started using it in Thunderbird and now they’re starting a whole service in Stalwart (written in Rust).

Super awesome.

Source? Really dislike all these unsubstantiated claims everywhere.

Just took a look but the reviews for the app seem not great.

The thing which really stops me from Google Maps alternatives is the lack of reviews. Very useful.

Plus, goddamn I wish they would modernize their UIs.

Not an ORM, but uses Rust’s compile time macros so you can write raw SQL and it will type check everything against either a real database connection or a JSON cache of the database’s schema.

Absolute best of both worlds.

I’d absolutely qualify it as non-secure in this context. Signal is E2E encrypted but there are no systems in place where it understands who’s added to a chat and validates access based on ACLs or anything. Authorization policies are critical in securing systems.

I thought you are going to mention that she’s receiving an enormous amount of money from the government, even though she’s Republican.

I can forgive someone for now knowing who specifically enacted some bill or something, but being simultaneously against supporting people with government handouts while relying on $400K from the government to survive? Wtf.

Four times??? We’re almost diving by zero here. Sanders is basically infinity times more sane.

Well it’s not slavery - you still get paid.

It’s just that everything you’re paid and probably more will get sucked back into the economy to pay for necessities to live, and if you don’t make enough money to afford that then you die.

But they aren’t killing you directly, so not the same thing.

Yep, we disagree. The world and technology especially is an extremely complicated place. IMO any complex system that is built upon “humans should just know all this complexity and keep it in mind all the time” is fundamentally broken.

I think you’re saying the same thing as what I am. If it’s more complex than what you may think, the language should guard against it. If not, it should make it simple.

Rust, for example, is the only mainstream language where it isn’t possible to read from a file handle after it’s been closed. Doing so is a compilation failure. This is just a general invariant of “how to use files”.

But you also don’t need to think about allocating or deallocating memory in Rust. It does that fke you automatically, even though it’s not GC.

JS can also be complicated when it tries to hide realities about the world. E.g. is a const array or object immutable? No, the pointer is. But pointers don’t exist! /s

I mean, this is correct in many cases, unironically.

It should be one of the core purposes of a programming language to help humans to write the code they intend. If a language doesnt do that then it’s bad.

it’s not

it is

years are a unit of time and you can’t count time

wtf lmfao

No, it isn’t just hype. The hype is justified.

Outside of security you have some very really world benefits, like performance gains in various scenarios as well as lots more people willing to contribute and a much better type system (more maintainability).

I feel like bananas would be cold as hell if they were growing that fast.

I’m a big Sanders supporter and totally get where youre coming from, but facts are facts. Bernie is right a ton of the time. He can be wrong once in a while without it damaging his reputation. When someone’s wrong, they should be called out regardless of whether you agree with them the rest of the time.

Is it actually Made I’m Germany? Or is this just a German store which sells keyboard Made in China?

If you voted for Harris / Clinton then you’re just giving the DNC more power to push ineffective candidates we didn’t ask for, which is an even greater vote for Trump.

See? It works both ways.

If you didn’t vote for Trump, you didn’t vote for Trump.

The strategy to stop a lot of people from voting for Trump should be campaigning / education. It should not be to push people to vote for someone they don’t want to.

Maybe i should start saying I make $90 billion a year as a tax optimization
