It would be great for Rust to have a Linux target that doesn't use libc, but from what I've read, not many people are interested in this. Found this as well: https://github.com/sunfishcode/mustang Some discus

Didn't Go already realize that it can't use direct syscalls on anything other than Linux? They made some mistakes in the past but by this point I think they learned their lesson. On Linux, using direct syscalls is a good idea, sin

The actual, real usability of Discord is way better than IRC's, it's not even close. Every time I tried to join IRC it has been a massive pain in the ass. So first if you want to join anything on libera.chat, you have to register

> You may want public proof Monero has view keys for that. > Zcash has much stronger privacy guarantees This is false. The fact that it uses ZKP doesn't make it's privacy stronger. I'm not going to state more points on

Sure, a few organizations may actually need some obscure feature that Oracle provides, but again, it's niche. For most companies, Postgres provides way more features than they will ever use. And for the other 1%, it sometimes happens t

Postgres is currently the most advanced RDMS, anyone who's not locked in by Oracle or whatever and doesn't use Postgres for new projects is likely misinformed. Postgres essentially made every other RDMS obsolete except for some ni

> Opting out of privacy gives it more plausible deniability So if you actually want to interact with the real world, you have to opt out of privacy? And if you enable privacy you are automatically treated as a weirdo? I don't get th

They aren't. Zcash has opt-in privacy, which I think we've established doesn't work. By this logic BTC also has opt-in privacy – just use a mixer. Well, except that your BTC will be tainted if you do it, which effectively mak

It's not clickbait. It provides a lot of evidence as to why Adam Back is Satoshi. Not just "he uses double space" either. It would be helpful if you could actually respond to points the video made, instead of making hand-wavy

Surprised that noone mentioned Barely Sociable video on Satoshi Nakamoto[1] (last of a 3-part series). Pretty strong arguments as to why Adam Back is Satoshi, the amount of coincidences is just way too many IMO. Craig Wright is definitely n

Apple can remove your app for whatever reason anyway, pretty sure every single company has that clause buried in their ToS somewhere. It's not like they constantly exercise it, but it's more for "just in case we really want t

I'm constantly annoyed by programs that try to make "fancy" terminal UIs, with a ton of formatting, colors, utilizing as many terminal features as they possibly can. It just seems like such a hack to me. The terminal IS NOT m

They don't "allow" it, but most apps that need background execution just ask permission for geolocation tracking and pretend to use it, for example iSH[1]. There are a few activities that the app can do to prevent itself from

Should be noted that Rust didn't have a 30 year head start unlike C, so it's obvious that it won't have support for every single embedded platform under the sun, at least not yet. It could in principle. And because C is more

This is because for any n-bit number, the maximum value is 2^n - 1, e.g. 2^8 - 1 = 255 But the number of values is just 2^n, because that includes zero.
