I mean I’ve still yet to hear a reason not to use rust tbf.
You can’t take NO as an answer, don’t you?
That’s bad attitude
Linux is not “work”; you surely don’t grasp the reality of the situation here.
And “tbf”, the incessant pushing of Rust from people like you is a perfectly fine reason to not use Rust…
It starts with “no, you don’t have to learn it”,
to “your changes are breaking Rust stuff, let’s waste time together to fix it, else I call it ‘bad attitude’”
to “you better make your stuff that way if you don’t want to break Rust stuff (and waste your time me)”
to “do it my way, Rust is taking longer to fix and I would have to refactor all the code because of the lifetime cancer”
to the original senior kernel dev saying: “fuck it, I quit, the kernel is such a mess with the Rust BS” … People don’t want you at the party, make your own party with your own friends we don’t want you here
It’s not complicated.
Void.
It all started by curiosity: “let’s try this no-where distros for the lulz”
Then it ended up to be the distro I am using everywhere.
It’s stable and quite on the “bleeding edge” in term of software versions…
And damn it’s fast son!
Dotnet core, it’s very similar to Java, it’s portable and has a smaller footprint.
This AI hallucinations are to the roof. There is no header files, no inheritance at all, header files were not created for that reason.
Holy shit, how wrong can this post be in so few words…
Zig is a clean, simple, pretty safe with good Interop.
Give it a try.
It’s made in rust, therefore it must be safe!
Comptime replaces macros/reflection.
It’s basically Zig code that runs at compile time in your code…
No other “weird” language to learn; it’s zig all the way. What you would have written in macro is written in zig comptime.
Even the build system is zig…
Same for generics, it’s comptime…
As I mentioned, a couple of tasks loosely related. The patch you are mentioning isn’t complete nor address the real problem.
It is an ugly hack at best.
Refrain from your urge to defend rust at all costs. You are sliding more and more toward the specifics of a project than the fact I stated about rust in general.
If you still not get my initial point I’ve made, read this.
That’s a long read explaining what I meant. My point was about Rust, not Zed or the developers of Zed in particular.
And for the Zed editor, I wish them the best luck, it seems like a great project that people enjoy.
Please feel free to comment and share your thoughts on the article above, my dear favorite nutritious veggie.
Wtf are you talking about? Redis is in C…
There are no patch, the issue has been closed as in rejected.
There are a few tasks that are open that are loosely related, but let’s not mix things up.
Moreover, I will take the words of the maintainers over a random potato on a forum.
No offense…
That’s what I am saying.
To quote you: “they don’t want to rewrite everything” …
Writing Rust often implies major refactoring and it takes so much time to write that your requests go: “pewf” closed due to the amount of effort it takes.
Anyway, been there, done that! Zig is probably the real future; it’s a joy to write, it compiles fast, clear to read, and safe.
It has shared libraries and a proper integration with existing C/CPP code base.
You should try it, that’s an amazing language with a real potential to replace the legacy.
Quoting the guy:
“that rewriting those in Rust will take an eternity, so not sure what is actionable here, hence closing.”
That’s Rust shining from all its glories here gentlemen…
The best language, if there is nothing changing.
That’s a thing to make a web server or a library that displays Fibonacci, that’s something else when there are humans with changing scopes…
It must communicate with Microsoft in a way, just by the fact the “AI” must not “hallucinates” by suggesting the user to jump from a bridge or to add Glue in his pizza…
You forgot “Recall”.
I wanted to make a wordplay here, but I couldn’t find one.
Anyway, a lot of people are worried about the OS remembering everything you are doing like it’s taking screenshots all the time.
For my part, that would be a big no-no.
What?
Rust doesn’t solve all security issues in codebase?
People should take note of that; I surely did…
