GTK deprecated Glade, so it's really not the fault of the Rust bindings. But to be honest, Glade's only useful if the language doesn't have good syntax for creating widgets defining properties on those widgets. Creating GTK a

As far as languages go, Rust is better at resource management than C. Especially GObject C.

There is no need to undo anything. We regularly test CUDA functionality with our packaging, and it's the whole point of having the packaging in the first place. So you don't have to manually install things from a third party repos

Every programming language that has ever existed has had evangelists. The tech field is littered with them. Whether that's people who play video games and fight over GPU brands and console brands; or people who fight over operating sys

You can avoid virtually all friction by sidestepping shared mutable references altogether and writing your GTK application in a more idomatic Rust way. For example, instead of passing shared references of application state to every widget s

Depends on what parts of the environment you're looking at. The compositor that's the basis of the entire environment will be written entirely in Rust, based on smithay. But applications written for COSMIC are currently based on G

`sudo apt install nvidia-docker2` works on 21.10. I have been packaging NVIDIA's container toolkit since tensorman was created, because tensorman doesn't work without nvidia's container toolkit. It's a dependency.
