   I guess it's USB-4 ports, which are Thunderbolt 3.

   This is not minor. In Rust "x = y" specifically only copies or moves bytes, no magic involved, no code is run except something like memcpy. - If the type isn't marked Copy, it's a bytes move (which will very probably be

   The Book of Shaders is in the dark. Too much parallel processing ?

   I know you US people are going through tough times and I deeply sympathize with you, but I'm not fan of political ads in release announcements. There are countless more serious problems in the world that would also deserve some publici

   Sadly the state of the internet means that only TCP and UDP will be widely used for the foreseeable future. There are a quantity of old routers which just throw away protocols they don't know, and they don't know much. See http

   Indeed I'd also like some Europeean equivalent (maybe that deserves its own Ask HN ?).

   Sodium bicarbonate is a magic substance which has so many uses, it almost looks like it's a cheat in the matrix: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_bicarbonate#Uses From the list: - cooking (leavenant, baking po

   I think it all depends on how your function is used in the end: - if all you're doing is using the value with an added "?" for error handling, like "a = sqrt(b)?;" then Ok-wrapping is perfect, I love it. - if you ne

    I distinctly remember Outlook doing top-post by default (and making proper replies tedious) way before GMail existed. That's when top-posting invaded everything.

    Initially my take was Javascript is for quick-and-dirty code, Rust is for beautiful thought-out architectures, and Go is somewhere in the middle. Nowadays I tend to do even quick hacks in Rust.

    MacOS may have been a little late. Windows NT, OS/2, Linux did preemptive multitasking since beginning of 90s, even AmigaOS had it in the 80s.

    Or if you already run dsnmasq you can: - uncomment this in your dnsmasq.conf: addn-hosts=/etc/banner_add_hosts - put this in a file in /etc/cron.daily: wget -O /etc/banner_add_hosts &#x27

    From the conclusion: When we started this project, we found that Rust was more difficult to use than any other language we had used previously. Ownership and moves were foreign concepts to is, and we were constantly fighting the Rust compi

    They say in the intro that capacitors don't explode. My past time as EE student tends to prove otherwise.

    I'll be very interested in following how a powerful nation with a perceived "selfish" way of life (extremely limited sick leave, no medicare, etc.) performs in this scenario.

    I thought it was what started the ECS architectures which are all the rage in game engines nowadays, and start bleeding in GUI and other fields too. Doesn't seem such a bad idea to me.

    There's often a final "e" in French, which is then changed to "eu" after the word gets reversed (and then often truncated). Another example is "herbe" (literally "grass" but now more often used f

    That's all nice, and I thank Firefox for blocking all these, but once there are too many browsers or extension doing the blocking, I wonder what will prevent sites to implement tracking server-side instead of client-side ?

    Serde is one of Rust's killer feature which makes you appreciate the philosophy behind the language. With just a few annotations you have a robust and complete parser for whatever format (JSON, TOML, etc.) automatically built for seria
