Note that for providing more platform support, there is also rustc_codegen_gcc which just replaces LLVM with libgccjust but keeps the rustc frontend.

I agree with this as it puts emphasis on semantics rather than syntax and encourages focusing on intentionally similar code rather than unintentional. A related principle is what I call code locality. Instruction locality is the grouping of

For those unaware, some ask "why" - No need to look up the version (though some IDEs do it for you) - Auto-completion - It shows you what features the crate has and whether they are activated, making it easier to discover features

I've tried switching a couple of times. I had plugins that didn't work and had to look for neovim equivalents. I felt lost in figuring out how to adapt my configuration to the neovim way of things I tried some features (treesitter

I had wrist issues with LabVIEW. When doing a lot, I had to be very particular about my posture and equipment. I had always wished they'd integrate those demos where there is no more manual layout. Pixel level layout, even with an auto

`cargo udeps` tries to uncover unused dependencies. I wish we had more reliable ways to detect it so we could integrate it into cargo.

I've been switching a lot of generated files to being checked in (with CI verifying they haven't drifted from the source). The primary motivation has been performance. For example, in Rust code, it means I don't need to foi

Earlier in Rust, I saw people recommending `#![deny(warnings)]` (always turn warnings into errors) but I think the community has shifted since then because I feel like I don't see that as much and instead see people disabling warnings

The Rust Cookbook [0] was meant to be one way of maintaining a curated list of crates though I don't know how much attention it has received since the 2018 edition documentation blitz. As for a central batteries-included crate, its bee

This is what I was used to at a prior day job (another one just didn't keep a version in source). When I took over cargo-release [0], this was also the default though not anymore. Benefits of keeping the last version - Easier to detec

I find rustdoc lacking for clap. rustdoc does a good job with API reference documentation and is improving in its handling of examples but derive reference and tutorial documentation are a weak point. For examples, its improving with the e

Don't forget about proc macros. If they don't, I wonder if one of the auditing commands should support drawing attention to build.rs and proc macros like this.

Glad to see an explanation for why they bypassed cargo. I had wondered about that when the PR was posted as it didn't contain any documentation for why they were going off the beaten path. However, I'm a bit confused at the reas

One of the reasons I appreciate this book so much, even if I disagree with parts, is the author's humble approach starting with the title, with both "a" and "philosophy". Throughout the content I also felt like he

You need to check both that its valid and that its still open. Many times I've seen TODOs with issues in code where the issue was closed. Since nothing gates the Issues being closed, you've now broken CI by closing them. Say you

Another reason for a system like yours is TODO is just another backlog but one that no one tracks and grows stale. I much prefer either - TODOs are resolved before merge (your FIXME) - TODOs are moved (not copied) to the team backlog (maint

pip-compile only generates it for your current platform and python version. Poetry generates a lock file for all platforms and python versions.

Does this generate a cross-platform lockfile? Besides usability, that is probably the most important feature from Poetry for me but I didn't see any details in this. The most annoying anti-feature in poetry is inability to override dep

One downside to implicit constexpr is its harder to know when an API intends it as a user and harder to enforce it works as an author. Seems like it could be easy to break compatibility.
