   Quick Rust noob question: I heard there's a new book in writing. Should I wait for it or read the current one?

    For me, the hardest thing with learning a new language is immersion. I can study grammar, read books and use Duolingo all day long, but in the end it comes down to "living" it. I wish there was an app for that.

    I view it differently. The benefit is being in control of your data, and there's not much of an inconvenience. It's up to competitors to implement the standard. The user will just have to press a "move" button.

    Not right now. I'm following the install from source guide so it'll be as close as possible to production. I'll change some things the omnibus package does better, then apply the GDK stuff so people could use it for developme

    I'm working on a proper Docker setup for GitLab development which I think can be made production-ready pretty easily after the development version works. It's hard separating the different moving parts (gitlab, gitlab-workhorse, g

    I have actually opened to book on a random page I don't remember reading, then looked for a relevant sentence. You're right about excluding information (as in my third example), but my second example has practically all of it and

    What bugs me with some books is that they have excellent content but are written redundantly. This leaves me reading 300 pages instead of 120. Why can't this: > We cannot talk to the designer, so we rely upon whatever information is

    Thank you both for answering. One question I have is about "targeting GUI apps". Why wouldn't developers be able to distribute non-GUI apps using Flatpak and AppImage?

    I often see Flatpak and Snappy compared, but is there a comparison between them, Nix, Guix, and even GoboLinux?

    I just use an old quality phone. I got a Nexus 5 in 2015 very cheap, and it works great to this day. Nexus 5X's price is on the way down, and there are plenty of other quality cheap phones to have, like the Chinese models. Some will ne

    The most important feature of the Teslas, in my opinion, is safety. If I had to choose between a Bolt and a Model 3 -- poor safety ratings would have been a deciding factor. Also, I hope it can't be "benchmark-optimized" like
