Speaking only for myself, I'm considering Flutter + Rust because I want to write everything in Rust, but there aren't great GUI options for Rust atm. I've heard good things about the rust<->dart bridge so it seems like

Thanks. Oddly enough I never noticed the 'chat' link before which has the details. https://lobste.rs/chat UPDATE: Actually I don't see it on the home page, so maybe not so odd I never saw it. I found it this

I like this site and would like a login, but apparently I hang in the wrong circles because nobody I know is a member. Any tips on where I might be able to meet someone who can vouch for me?

I wouldn't say upset. I like this move and it should have been done long ago. However, knowing that he waited until now to play this card shows that he doesn't care in the slightest for those rotting in prison, he simply wanted to

I like "the book", but I felt more prepared for the real world after reading the O'reilly book, 2nd edition. That was sufficient for me to write any code I needed. If you want a deeper understanding, "Rust for Rustaceans

I think things like this are great, but you have to keep in mind WHAT they are good for. This is NOT going to teach you Rust. What it is going to do is very quickly get you familiar with the ecosystem and relate it to something you know alr

Speaking as someone who has been WFH for the past 10 years: No, not typically, although I did get like $25/mo. credit for Internet at my past job. To be fair, I sought WFH it was not forced on me - they would have preferred I been in t

They likely get some of that. For example, I do laundry, and for me, 70% of that is popping one load in the washer, transferring to the dryer and back out. After that, I quickly fold and put away. That sort of task could easily be done I su

Not sure there is anything official, but I just uncovered this sentiment in my research after scouring tons of chat forums, etc. while researching GUI toolkits. There seems to be an understanding that QtWidgets is in "maintenance mode&

As long as you dynamically link and don't use the non-free components (charts, etc.), I think it would be just fine for a C++ or Python app. However, personally, I am leaning towards Flutter atm. They have decent emulated native lookin

AFAIK, QML is now their full strategy for desktop and mobile. QtWidgets is still supported but is considered somewhat legacy I believe. New projects are typically encouraged to use QML I think.

Doesn't yet have a table or tree control - would only work for very basic UIs in this limited state. Also, GPL and all that entails (with rare exception that you can petition for a free license if a very small entity or open source).

At first I thought this too, but if you look at the actual "features" they are adding they are all more less just smoothing out existing features. There aren't really any major new ones I can't think of that expand the &

I will agree Rust has a higher "cognitive load", but not if you write it every day. I think Rust might be tough to leave and come back say a year later, but Go admittedly would be easy. That said, having written 50K+ code in both

Agreed - I really like OCaml. Unfortunately it isn't popular enough to get tons of ecosystem love, so I could never find the libraries I need. I'd be pretty happy if it got more popular. Maybe the new multicore work will help.

I really like the engineering principles in general that the Go team uses, however, I just don't like Go. That isn't meant as a slight or anything other than simply my opinion. That said, I really like the idea of a simple languag

Only? That is one meal. Many eat three meals and snacks. Very easy to hit 150g of protein in a day consuming meat. There is a good comment below on the breakdowns.

I do not think that is enough, and by the look of the body mass of most people I see, most don't get enough.

I'm a weight lifter and consume 100-150g daily. I think everyone should consume around 75g daily (I should add: as an absolute minimum)

I will respectfully disagree, and at risk of downvotes, I think food science is a very difficult field due to difficulty getting good cohorts. Vegetarians and vegans tend to be very health conscience, but often studies lump "meat eater

I can see how it could be hard for someone used to high level languages and who doesn't care about how memory actually works "under the hood". The secret to learning Rust is really the same as C/C++: you have to learn to

by nu11ptr 4y ago
This exactly how I felt the first two times I tried it, but I never really just dove in. The third time I just dove in. The learning curve is straight up, but once you are over (took me about a month), Rust isn't really all that hard.

I haven't done much experimentation, but I've heard the same. Currently, for new projects I try to design with as many crates as possible in order to a) keep them small b) make as many 'spokes' (aka not dependent on othe

I'm a huge fan of Rust (I write in it for a living), but I still can't help wonder how they are going to tolerate the compile times. A couple of drivers...no problem, but what happens once they get a large number of drivers in Rus

Wow, interesting - I didn't know that. That is very cool... no more special handling for windows in cross platform handling then it sounds like (at least for UDS).

I guess it depends what kind of code you are writing. I've written all of the above w/o too much trouble, but yes, those are the harder parts. However, most of my code is just basic logic, so has very little interaction with that

by nu11ptr 4y ago
Have you written any Rust code by chance? I personally think Rust is easier than C++, possibly because it is a lot smaller language than C++ (at present). It isn't magic, but it kinda feels like it. To be able to do low level coding kn
