The rust coreutils author said that he doesn't care about the license/rights of users. He just did it for the technical challenges.

It would be great to see a screenshot in the README to get a quick idea of how the UI looks. How was your experience using egui? Why did you choose it over other Rust toolkits?

Is that statically linked or dynamically link? If the later, does it include all the libraries and assets it uses?

First time I hear about "copyfarleft license". I wonder what that means in practice for such a library.

> the waste generated by the nuclear industry is still an unsolved problem No it's not unsolved. There are burial sites. The spent fuel is kept on the power plant for years so it cools down. Also even without nuclear power, there wo

I believe the opposite is true. You still need these hundreds of miles of power line to get you the power during the night or cloudy days. And it is actually more expensive to handle such network because the power distribution is unpredicta

According to https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_power_in_Japan , Japan had about 300 TWh of nuclear for a year at the time of the accident. So $180 billion amount to $0.6/kWh over a year if I'm not mista

That repo is to download a small template (why do we need a crate for that?), and it still pulls `gpui` directly from the Zed monorepo via a git dependency. That kind of setup is fine for internal use, but it’s not how you'd structure

> I can't wait until GPUI becomes a bit more mature/stable so I can build on top of it I wouldn’t hold my breath. GPUI is built specifically for Zed. It is in its monorepo without separate releases and lots of breaking changes

egui is nice but its API changes a lot between versions which makes it hard to rely on. Slint is stable and well documented. Its license is open source and also free to use in many cases so there is no real issue there.

You're confusing "commercial" and "proprietary". Also LGPL doesn't block static linking with proprietary software, it just want that you allow the end user to replace the library with a modified version, and th

An interesting example of bad waste management in the 70's. But hardly an argument for how safe nuclear energy can be. You wouldn't judge the safety of aviation based on the Wright brothers plane. Also note that one of the problem

Only the GUI part is relevant for this discussion as this is what Qt is know for. Other modules also have different Rust crates equivalent, or are really niche and nobody uses them.
