How is it worse than JS? It's a different thing...

Joke's on them. I'm not using ad-blocks, but have been training my neural network (non-AI) to ignore them.

Yeah, if this is not upstreamed eventually, it will have to be rewritten again.

IMO not adding a separate character for Turkish was a mistake since unicode tries to support lower/upper case conversion (which doesn't apply to Han characters).

Not on iOS or other locked systems.

Not just MacOS, on Linux this is the correct strategy too. It covers more cases: either a new instance is starting, or it hasn't fully loaded the file yet.

Do all the letters have separate unicode codepoints? (no reuse Latin ones?)

by silon42 1y ago
I wish there was a single letter universal locale with sane values, maybe call it U or E, with: ISO (or RFC....) date time, UTF-8 default (maybe also alternative with ISO8859-1) decimal point in numbers and _ for thousands, metric paper &#

HTML is pretty bad (XUL was better), but (subset) of CSS is probably OK.

IMO, one thing I like in npm packages is that that usually they are small, and they should ideally converge towards stability (frozen)... If they are not, something is bad and the dependency should be "reduced" if at all possible.

Yeah... if you don't have 100% feature test coverage (and more) you will almost certainly lose features (aka cause bugs)

Maybe C++ should copy some Swift, before attempting to challenge Rust.

+1 ... Rust has done pretty much the minimal thing that one needs to write C/C++ like programs safely... things must fit together to cover all scenarios (borrow checker / mut / send / sync / bounds checking). Especi

As long as broken APIs exist, they will be problematic... they really should be deprecated. Calling a separate (non-cancellable) thread to perform the lookup sounds a like viable solution...

I've seen 'decorellation' mentioned... 95% of the time I am fighting the query optimizer is to get the correlation and a loop over few items working instead of a table scan.

I wish there was a good Rust binding for classic Qt...

That one should be Wake-On-LAN

If there's a cheap Chinese phone that banks/google accept, that might be my second (non-rooted) phone.

Even Apple's palm rejection is not good enough for me. I really hated the huge touchpad when I was using a Mac.

I really wish it was just low profile...

by silon42 1y ago
I won't move to Apple yet... but now there is not a reason to buy anything but the cheapest Android phone available. And maybe a separate one to root while they still can be.

I'd almost never want do to fsync in normal code (unless implementing something transactional)... but I'd want an explicit close almost always (or drop should panic/abort).

Surely there are prompts on the "internet" that it will borrow from...

Even if they don't, maybe go black for all weekends.

Why do I remember it was 50ms?

IMO it's not ideal for Rust to have only Rust specific toolkits (at least they need to have other language bindings) I've tried using Qt (non QML, using rust-qt) last week... initially things were looking fine (despite unsafe ever

Personally, I'd like to have an option of the outbound firewall doing the eSNI encryption, is that possible?

It seems wrong that the app would be responsible for cleanup... Shouldn't this be solved in the shell / terminal ? What if kill -9?

It is, but the minimum weight is harder to achieve with the extra weight of the disc brakes...
