Why guns? I understand drugs since it's such small scales (does the Imperial system even have a good way of expressing those?) Edit: I know you joked, but now I wonder if NASA used metric or imperial system back then

Also, I feel like the linear nature (and being base 10) makes metric system easier to learn and have an intuition about. Although, another comment here said they find the metric system unintuitive for medium (which I assume are everyday) va

We're not discussing self aware AIs like we see in science fiction; it's just a bunch of cool machine learning algorithms. I think that the word learning here is a bit of a red herring. It's cool that the algorithms are gener

I agree that the state of GUI in Rust is not quite mature. As an aside, there's https://github.com/StarArawn/kayak_ui that seems nice, but I've not actually used it, so I can't vouch for it.

At the risk of sounding naggy, I think you could maybe give Rust another go. A lot has improved recently, and depending on how long ago you tried it, maybe even radically. A lot of limitations in the language are now lifted thanks to a smar

I'm not a designer, so I can't really tell you why the little bit of extra negative space helps. Maybe just the fact that a little bit of the background can bleed through makes it seem more modern, and its easier to distinguish fo

I like having a small gap. It pleases me to use a Desktop environment that looks like it at least belongs in this decade. Edit: I realise some people are okay with the brutalist design due to it being the most efficient use of screen space

That's not quite the same (functionally) as the Rust solution though? Unless you meant to just illustrate a minimal PoC, in that case I suppose it does the job. More importantly (IMO) Rust allows us to be truly generic without sacrific

I think they meant to say that neither templates (nor virtual classes) are quite up to the same level of polymorphism that Rust has. Ie Rust type checkes at definition, as opposed to copy-paste and hope for the best (wrgt templates) when tr
