This looks very promising. I love that Apache went straight to Rust vs the usual Java or similar.

Alternate title: C++ developer misses the point -- (Hopefully) former C++ developer of ~20 years (now with Rust!)

A long while back there were efforts to port Pantheon to FreeBSD. IMO, a coordinated effort to get the graphical and UX experience on Linux or FreeBSD would be better than yet another one. I do wonder about eOS staff issues. It would be a s

I'm confused. I get a new Firefox version on my Windows, Android, and Linux machines consistently, with new features, fixes, and the latest web tech minus the privacy nightmares Google is trying to feed, at a regular basis. How are the

100% How the author arrives at the conclusion that the answer is to create another browser is beyond me. Advocate for Firefox. Invest in Firefox. There you go.

Mandatory filtering/blocking seems pretty unconstitutional to me, which is just one example.

Sure, but you see it's not a 'bribe' if you just call it 'lobbying', and corporations are people, so all good.

I worked at a parental controls company for a number of years here in Utah. There were various high members of the LDS church (whom were connected with our company in different ways) that would be pushing these kinds of things all the time.

PostgreSQL every time, unless you have a specific reason, or as already pointed out, you're sure you don't just need SQLite. PSQL in my experience has vastly better tooling, community, and is ahead of the curve tech wise. Same wit

Without the law applying to all, there is no law. The fact that we've come this far -- with all that Trump has done -- and are now only getting to what equates to a grain of sand in the grand scheme of all that he has managed to pull o

All of these wonky tools are written for and by Python developers who themselves trip over the insanity. I think I have enough evidence after watching this go down for over a decade.

Why not "simply" admit that Python and it's ecosystem while broad, are an absolute clusterfuck?

"Is the Twitter replacement we've been waiting for?" ...by Meta. No. No sir, it is not. ActivityPub (Mastodon variety) has been a breath of fresh air for me. That's my Twitter replacement, though that's bad wording,

I'd love to see this living in the Obsidian.md space. If I could work on my documents in the terminal on some machines while in graphical OS's on others... why yes please.

Have any of you actually written a CRUD app in Rust? I've written a couple that I also wrote in Node and Go. Using Tokio+Actix. It was a breeze, the LoC were actually similar to Node, and the built in observability was great. Suggestin

> That’s a long-winded way of saying: ‘We’d rather make more money than care about the health of our employees.’ I wanted to come here to say the same thing, so I'll quote you instead. Greed over all other things, how swell.

Package managers are sometimes great for the user, and as mentioned, a pain for the developer in many cases. To cover even "basic" bases, the developer has to manage many package managers. Ouch. From the user side, the package m

Thanks for the info! I'll be keeping an eye on this for sure. What I'm working on is a PoC and it's working well thus far. As Extism advances and supports some of these upcoming features, it may turn out to be "just righ

Interesting. Just this week I've been building a little experiment in order to utilize WASM based plugins in a project I'm involved with. I'm using WasmEdge for the task and so far am having pretty good luck. Questions: 1. Ca

It's mentioned already, but: Android. Discounting Android as "Not Linux" enough is a mind boggle to me. Perhaps not "GNU" enough, but certainly the spirit of Linux -- customized for the particular needs, stable, fas

Yes, absolutely, and for many projects. ..but like all things, it depends on your needs. Some have already pointed out the pages on SQLite's on site regarding # of writers (the main issue), etc.

Ah, someone who wasn't around to see the years of real Java hype. I've had to work with Java professionally for a number of projects over the years, and honestly the only use for it I've actually agreed with as "good&q
