The only thing I liked was arch’s pretty boot sequence … which I stared at for a while because SysV init was so slow.

systemd, not SystemD, or system d.
But yeah, wonderful talk!
Because they just have their own brain chemistry as the basis of it whereas the above comment clearly states:
Rust has proven empirically that the tradeoff between performance and safety doesn’t need to exist.
Which is truth. And it’s much easier to base a coherent argument on truth rather than vibes.
And proceeds to not pretend that he does.
That’s at least four levels of credibility more than I expected.
Hey, I’m sorry I didn’t get a PhD in “Lemmy instance vibe checking” before I chose to go for the devs’ instance.
Fuck Trump, and fuck generalizing tribalism.
Whoever dies first loses.
I mean, if you treat your inbox as a to-do list, that’s not that far-fetched
Wow you’re insane. “I know, I’ll discredit the woman who just pointed out that it’s hard to get credit in her field as a woman ”
Weird how he’s helping the far right in both cases.
Did you get lost?
Python is just glorified shell scripting
Absolutely not, python is an actual programming language with sane error handling and arbitrarily nestable data structures.
I don’t like the indentation crap
Don’t be so superficial. When learning something, go with the flow and try to work with the design choices, not against them.
Python simply writes a bit differently: you do e.g. more function definitions and list comprehensions.
Not only is there a UInt8Array, there’s also a bunch of others: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/TypedArray#typedarray_objects
What made you reassess?
Once git no longer depends on it, it’ll be gone from my system
Nah, gross. You need to set a bunch of global options to get sane behavior on errors.
Nushell is shaping up really really nicely, and it’ll actually stop executing if something fails! Even if that happens in a pipe! And it’s not super eager to convert between arrays and strings if you use the wrong cryptic rune.
Big difference between the pro and consumer versions though. Which ones are you referring to?
Very true. I doubt the researcher in question would object to use a virus scanner like you described.
Every consumer antivirus software works like the black box rootkit you described, AFAIK.
Great point, but this part of the quote is still dumb as rocks:
Coding is just kind of like the language that we talk to computers. It’s not necessarily the skill in and of itself. The skill in and of itself is like, how do I innovate? How do I go build something that’s interesting for my end users to use?
Sure, if you have a big workforce hand-coding UI, you might replace some of them by better tools. But things like that are a fraction of a fraction of the responsibilities developers have
Totally reasonable to not do a dumb thing if you have no contractual obligation to do the dumb thing.
Sadly they had that obligation, so they have to weigh the cost of doing the dumb thing with the cost of breaching contract.
That’s just completely wrong. Just try e.g. replacing the journald backend with the old text based syslog, and not only will you discover that is possible (which directly contradicts what you just said), it’s also easy!
