SDL is for everyone. I use it for a terminal emulator because it’s easier to write something cross platform in SDL than it is to use platform native widgets APIs.
Definitely agree, “pub” was one of the design decisions I loved learning Rust. If you forget to add it, you’ll get a compiler error. But if pub was default, I’d be exposing code unnecessarily. And no need for a separate private keyword, the absence of pub is sufficient.

The same reasoning works for “mut” as well.

That said, I don’t like Rust’s syntax. Especially once you get to lambdas, things get hard to read.

That's access control and transport encryption. By encryption I meant the encryption of the private key itself. I would not upload a plaintext private key, especially for privileged account access, even to a server I control.
Reddit stands out as a goldmine of information. With over 52 million daily active users and thousands of niche communities (subreddits), Reddit is a platform where people share opinions, experiences, and sometimes, critical information that might be unavailable elsewhere.

I always, always forget what `'a: 'b` means, because I remember it always being the opposite of what I think it is, but memorizing that obviously doesn't work because then it will just flip again the next time. It's so annoying.
No, maybe it got lost in translation. I meant, I will open up an account for you for free and you test it. If you like it or hate it, you just tell me. That was the whole point.
At least the Go people were smart enough to refer to it as "golang" right from the start.
> --I ran ctags across the linux kernel source code, pulled out all the signatures and then reference the signature when compiling the query, so you don't have to do a bunch of casts in the query.

note you don't need the casts if you use kfuncs instead, which also let you reference arguments by name (from https://github.com/bpftrace/bpftrace/blob/master/man/adoc/bp... ):

kfunc:tcp_connect {
if (args->sk->__sk_common.skc_daddr == (uint32)pton("127.0.0.1"))
...
}

With that said, kfuncs don't work (yet?) on aarch64, so this is great for me -- I'll definitely give it a try next time I need it.

Your points have nothing to do with ugliness.

> Why `pub fn'? Why is public not the default and why do you have to specify that it's a function?

If public were the default, you'd end up having to make other functions `priv fn` instead.

> Why `: type' and `-> type', why can't type go before the identifier?

It's easier to parse, and most major typed languages other than C/C++/C#/Java put the type after the identifier.

> Why do you need `File::' and `Bytes::'?

Seriously?

> What is that question mark?

The final version doesn't use a question mark.

> Why does the last statement not need a semicolon?

This is a legitimate question. In Rust, the last statement without a semicolon becomes the return value.
that's false, why do you think that?
> because the API is just bad and unintuitive

What effect does changing the API have on other existing drivers?
I personally don’t like VS Code although if this works well I might open it just for this feature. I’d still be coding and taking notes in emacs though. Any thoughts on putting most of the smarts into a server process so that any editor can have a plug-in that talks to it?

If I understood all the semantic properties, including the separate compilation requirements, correctly, here’s how I think it would be done in Swift with the proposed nonescapable types features (needed to safely express the AsRef concept here).
(Note that this doesn’t quite compile today and the syntax for nonescaping types is still a proposal.)

var bytes: [UInt8] = []
try file.readToEnd(into: &bytes)

}

@inlinable

}

For my own situation, the articles present the right way to express all possible performance/error handling (which is expected in a standard lib) and then goes on to show how I actually code it in my own softawre where I don't really need the level of detail/finetuning of the standard lib.

Interestingly, my life starts at the end of the article, with the simple verison of the code, and as my understanding of rust widens, I go up to the beginning of the article and better define my function...
If you've programmed a lot in Rust, then that's a win -- since its "not more clear", and yet, you've no experience in this syntax.
My hot take is that Rust should have been a Lisp. Then it could also have had readable macros.
Well the naming is a different question, but it is consistent with observation of what we call wavefunction collapse.

In Schroedinger cat experiment, the evolution is not thermalization but rather entangling the whole cat with atom state. I don't think we're really puzzled about it now, since we know that macroscopic objects can be in superposition. So cat, theoretically, can be in superposition of alive and dead until measured. I don't think there is any contradiction or confusion here physics-wise.
Internal turf wars have always been tiring and never fun* and a huge waste of emotional capital that should have been better used, which is why I spent my entire 'career' avoiding being on anyone else's payroll.

Not that it changes your point much, but you could probably look back to 1990. One of the WTC conspirators had assassinated a rabbi (an American who, to put it very lightly, had personally meddled in the middle east). Coincidentally since so many folks upthread are talking about jury nullification, the resulting trial is sometimes considered an example.

What do you mean by this?

> In either case, USFF is an order of magnitude less energy than desktop so it's still a win most of the time.

Doesn't it depend on the actual CPU used? I have an HP Elitedesk Mini (which is basically a small laptop without a screen — the equivalent of the ThinkCentres mentioned in this thread) and the CPU is an i5-8500 IIRC. I don't think this particular configuration would draw much less power than a "regular" desktop / SFF, aside maybe from the RAM (it uses SO-DIMM). I've never bothered to measure its idle power draw, and don't have any comparable "full desktop" to compare.

I don't know if HP or Lenovo have models with laptop-class CPUs in this form factor, but I image that would be an actual improvement on the power draw. I did see however Chinese brands on Amazon sell models with those kinds of CPUs.

I always describe it to myself this way - T: Foo means T is a superset of Foo (because it at least implements Foo but most likely more) thus 'a: 'b means 'a is at least as wide as 'b, and possibly wider

D maybe? D and Rust are the two languages which come to mind when I think about "possible C++ replacements".
That has indeed been one successful tactic.

Are you saying Brazilian law doesn't recognize limited liability? Nevertheless, there is no insolvency here. The judge is choosing to pierce the corporate veil.

Here’s the initial AWS response to the license change that they made in 2018, which I helped write. At the time we didn’t think a new license made sense, as AGPL is sufficient to block AWS from using the code, but the core of the issue was that AWS wanted to contribute security features to the open source project and Elastic wanted to keep security as an enterprise feature, so rejected all the approaches AWS made at the time. https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/opensource/keeping-open-source-...
I've never used dpdk for kernel bypass, only open onload. Originally for solarflare hardware, apparently it works with cards from other vendors via XDP (though I've never tried it). It gets loaded via LD_PRELOAD and replaces ordinary BSD socket functions with full userspace sockets that can fall back to the kernel when necessary (e.g. if the application wants to yield the cpu but still get notified about the socket).

I've heard many people from overseas, particularly those running businesses, say Australia is "over regulated". I'm an Australian, and I doubt that Australia has more laws than anywhere else, so I suspect that doesn't mean what is sounds like at first glance. What it means is we tend to enforce the letter of the law more than other anglo countries.

In this case the outcome is maybe not so good - but bear in mind it probably means traffic in Australian cities moves faster, and I suspect that is the intended outcome which is why it's tolerated. With other laws it's harder to find a good side. Like the time we jailed for someone for having Simpsons cartoons because the kids were naked (it was deemed to be CSAM). Recently the Australian government got smacked down when it tried to make twitter take down content deemed harmful in Australia (someone had died) globally. Twitter had voluntarily blocked it in Australia. Much as I don't like much of Musk's politics, him winning that battle seemed like the right outcome to me.

However, we also uphold laws like "you can't lie in ads", and "you must honour your warranty". For example, an ISP market their offerings based on the lowest expected speed during the day. If they are found to be systemically lying, they will have will find the government watch dog's teeth embedded somewhere - at no expense to the citizen who was lied to. It is Australia who has been most successful in in reducing smoking rates, pioneering plain packaging for cigarettes among other things. Undeniably taxing cigarettes so they $50 instead of a couple of dollars is a form of nannystateism. But there was a recent article here comparing expected lifetimes of the USA to the rest of the words and as you might expect the comparison to Australia with its nannystate laws was not pretty for the USA.

So this enthusiasm for enforcing the law cuts both ways for us Australians. US companies in particular do find it surprising. It was Australia who fined Facebook for redirecting Android users traffic through a VPN, so they could mine their data. I vividly remember when HP's Australia pages were forced to carry a large banner at the top for a few months, proclaiming their did not honour their warranties. Needless to say, all large US tech sector retailers honour their warranties in Australia now. Once consequence of this is many Australian's have learnt to not grey import, despite the considerable cost savings of doing so. People here are voting with their wallets, and surprising they voting to pay more.

Also, I suspect one outcome of having the laws enforced vigorously is bad laws tend to get repealed here, rather than left on the books.
And Apple only decided to own its chip design-capabilities after the iPhone became a smashhit and Steve Jobs felt betrayed because Samsung used the same ARM CPU-architecture to build the first Galaxy S Smartphone...

It's anyway a big claim that Apple was always somehow competing with everyone in the market. That's the company which rebranded HP Laser Printers, made an HP-branded iPod, made an iTunes phone with Motorola, just moved from IBM PowerPC to Intel for their PCs (!), decided for a while to not make a 5K display but let LG build an official one instead, pushed LaCie as an external HDD partner, etc.

Apple always had ambitions to "wow" with its customized thoughtful products, but before the "iPhone money" they barely ever had enough order-volume to dominate a supplier...

I agree completely, but I should point to a problem: it's easy to implement unsound virtual machine on top of sound language. When developers uses indices to simulate references, to circumvent borrow checker, they are doing exactly that. Then again, a sound façade can be built around unsound code, like `indextree` crate does:

> This arena tree structure is using just a single `Vec` and numerical identifiers (indices in the vector) instead of reference counted pointers. This means there is no `RefCell` and mutability is handled in a way much more idiomatic to Rust through unique (`&mut`) access to the arena. The tree can be sent or shared across threads like a `Vec`. This enables general multiprocessing support like parallel tree traversals.

There's really not much difference in the architecture ultimately.

The key thing is the data + compute resources. If you can afford to run a big H100 cluster, even temporarily, it's accessible.

The critical question though is: to what end is it profitable? If you're company X who's built one of these, it's obvious that another company could knock you off peak position next week. If that's the case, is there the incentive to continue ploughing money into training? For some big companies the answer is obviously yes because they want to dominate the ecosystem. But I'd question whether there's a large market for it in the medium-term.

Back in the day, in the x86 world, there was this "rule of thumb" that you needed about 1GHz of CPU speed to saturate a 1Gbit network link. So a server with four 2GHz CPUs could saturate eight 1gbit links and still be somewhat useful.

This was AFAIR based on empirical knowledge, nothing scientific.

So a Pi Pico running at 300MHz pushing 100Mbit is something that is not totally unexpected, if you consider the low-power, low-cost CPU design in a Pi Pico (and the fact that you have to push the bits manually on the wire).

It's still a nice feat that they pulled this off!
It is still widely used in Germany.
