Firefox only can compete with Chrome/Chromium-based clones only if it has a unique edge (pun intended). Being completely written in Rust is that edge, reducing work required for debugging, while Chromium team would be still busy with m

There is also compatible alternative (still WIP) in pure C - Boson[1]. [1] https://sr.ht/~bl4ckb0ne/boson/

Is it coreboot-based? Modern laptops firmware is bigger than Linux kernel and has too much crap inside. Intel is openly hostile to the open source firmware, while it's theoretically possible to do that on AMD systems.

There's another option - direct democracy, assuming everyone has a neural implant and constant network connection. Then any important decision could be voted in a matter of minutes or hours.

There's also rq (record query)[1] that also supports CSV and JSON but not TSV though. It's written in Rust. [1] https://github.com/dflemstr/rq

This link overly politised and does not offer technical details about these problems. The Moscow Times article [1] makes a better job. [1] https://www.themoscowtimes.com/2021/08/20/leaked-sputnik-v-r...

Yes, I don't see a point of this program at all because in case of Japan there is double trouble of non-urban and overall population decline. Thus, logically, they should aim this kind of program specifically to foreigners, to attract

Why not use F# then? While being less flexible than OCaml, it is still a huge level up from C# while retaining the ability to use the same libraries.

Would be nice to support it in Meson. Currently, there is work-in-progress TinyCC support [1]. But the work is hindered by the lack of recent TCC releases - 0.9.27 is too old to be supported. [1] https://github.com/mesonbuil

Rust is truly cross-platform, while Swift isn't (though even it was initially announced to be).

Likely because it's easier, since there are extensive libraries and tools already for refactoring. Also a bunch of business code is in Java.

Not to deobfuscate, but Rizin[1][2] supports disassembling the Python bytecode for both 2.x and 3.x versions out of the box. [1] https://rizin.re [2] https://github.com/rizinorg/rizin

Absolutely sensible move. Time for Microsoft to do the same with MSVC.

Landing is even worse - Mercury has no atmosphere so braking would also require big amount of fuel or more gravitational braking, which takes a lot of calculation and time.

Unless you follow the diet to the maximum - eat only compatible food and skip incompatible (according to the chosen diet), calculate calories every single day. In my case keto diet worked the miracle. Maybe other people could be successful
