Nothing specific to rust. So do most other compiler and/or build-systems, but then we'd not have such a clickbaity title... Solution to that and more problems: build in a clean chroot or container with the minimum of dependencies

I'm using the beta version and the changes are actually useful and, relatively, plenty. The one thing I'm currently looking forward the most is multi-process support, planned for Thunderbird 91, IIRC; It should relieve the hangs I

Besides the fact that your BW is off a factor of 2.81, which would bring it to ~18.65h, note that: * That's why they are often rather on the receiving end of backups ;-) * Are often in RAID10 systems, for redundancy/uptime + perfo

Yours is a bit more fun to play as it allows right-clicking on the flags to uncover surrounding fields. Both are cool stuff and nice learning experiments though!

That's no bug, flags are strictly placed by the player.

Not really. We wrote a content-addressable-storage backup solution in rust[0], and one consumer is QEMU for doing backups of VMs, so we expose C bindings of our rust code[1] and use them in QEMU[2], effectively having rust async stuff handl

Isn't it bit thick to assert that it was not really clever if you were the one not clever enough to draw the association with a once in a century event, which is still happening?

Figure out some interested people upfront and a rough time (thus cost) estimate. Then pool resources via a funding platform, get the word out (here on HN, social media, mailing lists) and you may get it done quite soon and also at a low rel

So how are the cores interconnected? As ARM server designs love to throw out tens to hundreds of cores which sounds good on paper, but are not really useful to lots of workloads as they have a shit interconnect or lots of NUMA nodes. Interc

Further, Debian gives a clean and normally very well working upgrade path, which I take anytime over Frankenstein backport updates keeping a distro release on life support until X years later one needs to redo everything.
