This won't affect most users as they will be using the cache.nixos.org substituter and haven't modified any package that pulls repo.or.cz repositories, but it's still amusing.

There's no Virtual Terminal, aka TTY / VT, so the kernel is smaller and the insecure VT impl in the Kernel is not compiled in. In general, you get less moving parts and a more solid system. The functionality of the VT as a fallbac

You need to enable the option-key-as-alt config option (I recommend only doing it for left option) as alt and option aren't actually the same thing. The name of the config key may be different but it exists

Currently Linux and I think BSD, and the creator has said he wants to support MacOS and Windows, though those will only be included in the paid product. On Linux and BSD, it supports Wayland and X11, though Wayland is better supported. ie,

Radicle.xyz fixes this with COBs (Collaborative Objects). They're stored inside your git repo as normal objects, and benefit from its p2p mechanism as well. It's the true sovereign forge.

Sorry, I meant `&Vec<T, dyn Allocator>`. And no, it is possible. Here is an example that does it with BufReader, which has T: ?Sized and uses it as a field: https://play.rust-lang.org/?version=stable&mode=debug

If the `A` generic parameters were changed to be ?Sized, it would still be possible to make `read_to_end` support custom allocators by changing the signature to `read_to_end(&mut dyn Vec<u8, Allocator>)` Not sure if that is a brea

That's more of a distro thing than "Linux being a few screws loose". I vastly prefer the OpenBSD kernel too, but if you use a distro that does things properly such as NixOS, the BSDs are the ones that feel wonky.

Holy slop. This does reflect my experience with Claude Code too. It just writes TOO MUCH damn code. It's never able to understand the tiny change that would make the software actually be better without guidance, and at that point I&#x2

This whole rant is uninformed & it seems like the author is completely ignorant of anything happening outside his well. But I'll bite the Rust rant anyway. > Where's your SSL? Right here: https://www.memorysafety

They're still not enough. Even with those, it's really easy for stuff to slip in. You should just pick the nearly exhaustive option instead

Many such cases. Nushell fixes this: https://nushell.sh/ I've been using it as my shell for 2-3 years, and it has improved a LOT since then. The interactive experience is great, and it's wonderful assembling scrip

I also use 3 spaces myself, because 4 spaces is too damn wide and 2 spaces is a little bit too small. I would use tabs instead, but rustfmt doesn't handle it well at all in some of the nightly options, I've had it use spaces where

This is horrible and goes against the purpose of tabs. You should NEVER use tabs for alignment, only for indentation.

Server-side declarations are a thing now & are used widely (in anything other than GNOME)

@dang, post is from 2018, so adding (2018) to the title may help as the current state of font rendering on Linux is pretty fine.

Almost MacOS-tier font rendering, for free: FREETYPE_PROPERTIES="cff:no-stem-darkening=0 autofitter:no-stem-darkening=0" Probably only good in high DPI monitors though.
