Yea... i'm a huge fan of Rust and it is my primary language these days, but despite my many complaints with Go.. it's not bad. In fact it's pretty solid. I can't imagine the primary slowness in ipfs-go will be solved by

To be fair though, that sounds... mostly legit, what you did that is. Ie in many cases in school i don't think they actually care to teach you the subject. What good is that subject really going to have on your life going forward? Even

Yes, imo - because they don't just mistrust - they randomly trust alternatives. Mistrust is warranted, definitely. Trusting random sources that fit their heavy bias is something we should all be hyper aware of and fight. Yet we don

It kinda is. Kinda like when documentation is so repeatedly outdated and incorrect, that when you need new information you just skip documentation entirely. Are you wrong for skipping documentation? Yea, maybe. Is it entirely expected? Yea.

Honestly, so is Go. I used to use Go, and it's boring as hell. I hate it for a few choices they made, but they definitely achieved their goal. It is quite boring. I agree with you though, so is Rust. The less boring areas imo these day

I worked in Tacoma (Washington State) and the drive on I5 there could turn a 25 minute drive into a 4 hour slugfest. Worse yet, about once a week it would be 3 hour drive, almost without fail. It was awful.

They painted it like reality, though, no? You seem to paint the landscape as full of tools and imply that they're used. Either they're insufficient or they're often under utilized, simply due to the number of bugs we see. N

I like some of those, maybe 10% of the time (because i'm reasonably anti-social) , but man it has to be really good to put up with a commute. Wasting 1-2 hours of my day, with the potential to have it become a 4 hour drive once every

I recently switched back to Obsidian (from nothing) . It doesn't solve everything the way i want, but it's the closest. The biggest thing for me is it's very open to plugin development, so my goal is to heavily modify it m

I would think what we have now already covers everything. Doesn't matter _how_ you produced an infringement, if you make something too closely to Mickey and sell it, you're infringing _(i'm speaking loosely, ofc)_.

Yup. I write all my UI's in Rust. I write, well, everything in Rust. Why? Because i prefer it, and there is no task that i feel is fundamentally hindered by Rust itself. Shortcomings in libraries can definitely hinder, but that gets
