Just used the interface... wow I love it. I need something exactly like this.

Yes, god yes I have. Chromecast used to work just fine last year, but this year it's been a disaster. * Almost all youtube videos start playing before they're buffered, the video is paused but the audio continues playing until the

There's no shortage of choice for desktop environments on Linux. If you're looking for a system that's completely user-friendly from the top down, look at Elementary OS. I personally use KDE on Debian, Gnome on Arch, etc. and

Will the MIR/HIR stuff also help with adding features? I'm thinking of things like non-lexical scoping/SEME regions/etc. which might be easier to implement with it.

It's a bit hyperbolic, but historically Valve have been very strict about VAC bans. If your account is hacked and someone cheats, they can get it permanently VAC banned and Valve will not negotiate or be lenient about it -- ever. I kno

I believe that in all of bitcoin's major bubbles, it has never crashed below the previous bubble's high.

I think some progress will be seen in libraries first, namely things like tendril. https://github.com/servo/tendril

This could easily be added as a lint to the codebase.

Dealbreaker? This just means you need to play with let bindings a little bit until they improve it at some point. (Same goes for SEME regions.)

Rust convention is for 4-space indentation, not tabs. In fact, in the compiler's own code tabbed indentation fails tests. The way the playpen works is a "best of both worlds" approach I guess.

I don't know what you mean. The example they show is hello world. The website will remember the last thing you compiled and ran on it, and display that again when you come back. Perhaps you're looking at a different code snippet.

Well, not really, I was just stretching my brain to think of criticisms you might have been alluding to. I still don't know what is overly explicit about Rust's generics.

Aside from many of the other common reasons, Rust is a fun language to code in (once you understand it well). The language design has learned a lot from other languages, and the tooling has been influenced by many other successful ecosystem

> Generics are both pervasive and difficult - they're clean unlike in C++ but they're also uncomfortably explicit. Maybe it's because I'm used to it, but do you have an example of why you think this? I think with type

Did you miss the obvious circular reasoning here?

This doesn't help with unused variables, which comes up just as often when doing the same thing (coding piecemeal, testing if it compiles, etc.)

While we're on the topic of Dots, my favorite way to learn a new programming language lately has been to implement a clever "solver" for this game in the language (to maximize score). I wrote one in Go a while ago, and Rust r

$0.01 is just arbitrary. Some people might find that too expensive, and some spammers might find it cheap enough to profit from anyway. The problem is that the threshold for affordability is in NO way attached to the profit margins of spamm

This will just put a lower-bound on the market for spam emails, at the cost of making legitimate email more expensive (especially at scale). It doesn't matter if it's a micropayment through bitcoin or hashcash. The only real way t

So it's not a harm to freedom of expression if we allow your blog to exist, but we censor links to it because they're "automated"? It doesn't matter if it's automated or highly moderated. It's an expressio

Nobody got in trouble in the U.S. for reporting on/distributing the Snowden leaks. There weren't any newspaper raids. Nobody was asked to "keep quiet". Anyone who did censor did so out of mutual interest. Press freedoms

There are a lot of amateur day traders in the bitcoin community who just wing it. I'd say weird patterns you find are probably because of that.

I understand the Court has some role in determining intention, but the nature of the technology in the background is crucial in determining whether it violates the law. I'm confused about the implications of the ruling. Would this ruli
