By that definition, you shouldn't be using computers or calculators or contacts application on the phone. These tools are augmenting our own computational units we carry around. Sort of like a external storage or a external tpu.

>> Intensity and difference need to be encouraged—genuine striving and passion. The courage to love fragile transient things, to form deep attachments and let them sculpt and wound you. Desire for stasis and placation is the default.

Fear is the first step in taking steps to compete. Its an acknowledgement of the threat from a better product. If any company doesn't have that they will fail. This can be seen during the ballmer era where he totally ignored the threat

If your current OS is the market leader why wouldn't you lose sleep over it. They are running a business and have to worry about the competition. Progress on competing products might be good for consumers but not for the employees or s

Another way to put it is: Rust is world's best c/c++ teacher. Once you understand and surpass borrow checker, your c++ code will be much less error prone.

Most cataract surgeries in private hospitals cost around $200 in India including the lens cost. If its done in camps where multiple patients get it done the cost might primarily be lens related.

Problem is the ring leaders of the scam call centres that actually finance the operations and move the stolen funds are usually not Indian residents. Once one call center is busted, they move to recruit another. The employees themselves are

If only it would not gobble up so much memory. For an ide that has been around for this long, one would have assumed they would have switched to a more performant non gc language by now.

Excellent summation. Majority of the software developers work on crud based frontend or backend development. When this thing's attention goes beyond the 4k tokens its limited to, there will be very less number of developers needed in g

Don't know why most of the distros default to gnome. It's an absolute nightmare for usability. Without extensions even bare minimum things can't be done. If you are a windows user switching to Linux, should definitely stay aw

While there is no pure rust model yet, there is a crate with bindings to the cpp model (probably not to this one).

I just don't understand how people can't see the threat. All you have to do is keep showing bad news videos about inflation, crime rate, illegal immigration to turn population against the government subtly mixed with normal videos

Honestly the rust web frameworks are quite good. I don't find them any more verbose than say typescript or golang because enough higher level types exist to abstract away complexity. Majority of api code is just crud and business logic

Dell XPS is the only laptop where I have seen this working reliably. Worst part is that thanks to zram, many distros removed hibernate functionality. So its not possible now to either sleep or hibernate on many laptop/distro combinatio

May I suggest you take some time to understand the concurrency and memory management parts of Rust a little more to figure out where your program is falling. I agree it's not an easy language to pickup, but the use case you mentioned i

It sounds a bit like gate keeping :). Not to mention, Rust complexity can always be dialled down to a GC language if corresponding sacrifices in performance are accepted. There are a whole lot of domains where you can get away without using
