This just depresses me. So many programmers back then spent time optimising algorithms. Now it's slop city.

I have massive AI fatigue. They're neat I guess, but nothing I've used has had any lasting importance. Can we move on to the next hype cycle rather than remixing this one?

The amount of jews killed by Israels neighbours is statistically insignificant compared to the amount of gentiles killed by Israel. Jewish lives are not worth more than other peoples.

5 jews killed. If Israel could cut back their daily killing of gentiles to 5 a day, that would be a massive improvement.

How far back do we want to go? We could go back to 1948 when the precursor to the IDF poisoned the wells of the Arab villages they captured, so if the Arabs returned they'd get typhoid. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki&#x2

The only nation in the middle east with a nuclear weapons program is Israel. Why not destroy that one? It's objectively more of a threat to the region than Iran's.

I do agree with the sentiment here, but "no amount of diplomacy" isn't really a description of Iran's government. That's completely unfair to Iran. They had IAEA inspectors in their country and they were negotiati

It feels disingenuous to talk of extremist muslims when we have extremist jews bombing 4 countries in 2 years, and committing a genocide. Iran has killed a lot less civilians than Israel and it isn't even close. I'm much less worr

I can't help but conclude the primary rogue state in region is not Iran - it's Israel: - Did not sign the non-proliferation treaty - Does not allow IAEA inspectors into their country - Nuclear weapons program widely believed to ha

Perhaps the viewpoint that tests are a chore or grunt work; something you have to do but you don't really view as interesting or important. (like how I describe what git should do and I get the LLM to give me the magic commands with al

I do not know this term; could you give a concise explanation?

I don't think most developers are capable of this. Call me elitist, but the concept of data from the network as being qualitatively different as data in memory is just foreign to most people.

I'd have much more confidence in an AI codebase where the human has chosen the property tests, than a human codebase where the AI has chosen the property tests. Tests are executable specs. That is the last thing you should offload to a

.NET AOT compiles comically slowly. It makes C++ look like Ocaml. I have no idea how anyone uses it for anything serious.

https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/?search=hashbrown looks like there's no way to access it, outside of hashmap. Though maybe you just need the third party hasher and you can call with_hasher. IDK man there's a lo

by LAC-Tech 1y ago
huh, does it? I always add it so I can make non-deterministic hashmaps in rust. oh and you need one more one for the hashing function I think. But I did not know hashmap re-exported hashbrown, thanks.

It's also worth pointing out that the Zig std library covers a lot more than the rust one. No need for things like rustix, rand, hashbrown, and a few others I always have to add whenever I do rust stuff.

It actually provides rust APIs to dev systems software against that run on it? I know it's written in rust, but I am talking more specifically than that.

Hey Artix! Zig's is in the standard library. From the commits it was started by Joran from Tigerbeetle, and now maintained by mlugg who is a very talented zig programmer. https://ziglang.org/documentation/master&#x

Kernels are big pieces of software. Rust is used for device drivers mainly, right? So in that case you write an idiomatic rust lib and wrap it in a C interface and load it in. Actually interfacing with idiomatic C APIs provided by an OS is

I never said 40/hours week. Very confused by this post!

by LAC-Tech 1y ago
unless you have to do anything that relies on a C API (such as provided by an OS) with no concept of ownership, then it's a massive task to get that working well with idiomatic rust. You need big glue layers to really make it work. Rus

The solution to this is to simply put an underscore before the variables you don't think others should rely on, then move on with your life.

This does not paint a good picture for FreeBSD development. An operating system of that size and complexity surely needs someone company to sponsor the release manager full time, not part time for a year. I don't say this to besmirch F
