We always hear how great Rust is, but I’d be curious to know where it isn’t.

• In any project that’s sufficiently advanced and written in any other language. You don’t simply do a rewrite of 100k+ LOC just because you want to use Rust.

• Somewhere where you’d rather use a scripting language like Python. I.e., rapid prototyping or gluing together some infra components.

• A situation where your team’s expertise is in some other language.

• A situation where a library/framework is native/only available for a certain language.

Few of these are strictly technical requirements. It’s obvious that you can use almost any language to do almost anything, including Rust, if that’s what you prefer. However, the context matters in the real world.

All this being said, I wish I had a chance to write Rust professionally. It’s a neat language.

No, it’s actually a comment section for a Youtube video, and it is appropriate to voice an opinion related to it here.

The meme you’re parroting fits better when someone goes wildly off-topic, which is not what happened here.

Here is an Iron Law I have learned from two decades on Facebook: If you are 39 years old and married with two children, you do not get this ripped unless you are deeply unhappy.

Oh man, that hurt.

Sorry I can’t really contribute to your question, but would anyway like to take the opportunity to air my grievances: I hate Youtube shorts and TikToks with fierce passion. The format of short videos makes sense and is a good idea to some extent, but who the hell decided we’re not allowed to rewind our videos anymore? I want to hunt down that person, go to their house at night and tell them that they are not very good at their job so loud that their whole family can hear it.

I think Zuck does BJJ, not judo. Which would be even better for the cage fight.

Also, having hydraulic joints and titanium frame helps to absorb any damage Musk could inflict.

Nebula is not bad. I paid for it for a year, but had some issues with not enough content and the buggy UI on Firefox. If Youtube blocks adblockers, I’ll certainly go back to it.

The good thing about Lemmy is that it’s open source. Community requests are easy to make and will be discussed. Creating third party apps should not be an issue either.

The bad thing about Lemmy, on the other hand, is that it’s open source. There’s no VC funding to hire hundreds of overpaid developers to fix things quickly, so we just have to be a bit patient and give the devs time to make the necessary changes.

Anyone care to explain what this is? I went to the subreddit, but couldn’t find it there either.

I’ve really enjoyed the lack of guerrilla marketing on Lemmy. But indeed it’s great that the platform is not so big that it needs some algorithms to decide what to show, and in doing so attracts all kinds of content optimizers.

Seems like the way to make energy out of fusion would be to burn the budgeted cash instead in a conventional furnace.

The meltdown happening right now is surely a spectacle to watch on the side lines.

The free VC money to tech ran dry, as the interest rates began to rise over the past year or so. I wonder if Reddit is feeling the pain and they’re desperate enough to pull all this shit? Or are they trying to do an IPO before they run out of money and now try to push up any possible revenue, including the recent lay-offs?

In any case, keep the pop corns warm and close.
