You can always put the first and last brace on their own line in most languages whether the commas are at the front or end.
I don't claim to know the answer here, but I hope you can see some irony in saying:

> As I pointed out, this is not the case, but the hesitancy and destructive power of imposing your will on others.

When the thing up for discussion is the hacking of our psyche to impose a will - ads - onto others, at a scale and persistence hereto unimaginable by the worst tyrants in history.
It wouldn’t apply to the kernel. Also, a lot of the command line tools are not distributed as part of the OS.
It's really not. The hardware is so good that I put up with it, but it is a bad OS in so many ways. My dream laptop would be a MacBook with a normal keyboard layout and running a well supported version of Linux.

Damn. I was aware US technology companies were parasitic, but this article really sheds light on the extent of it. No wonder they hate free software so much.
I see this subculture far more in online forums than with fellow Rust developers.

Most often, the comments come from people who don’t even write much Rust. They either know just enough to be dangerous or they write other languages and feel like it’s a “gotcha” they can use against Rust.
The Guardian is published in an Orwellian country that arrests people for social media wrongthink. Most of its articles are poorly researched clickbait. I think the Guardian is far from a model to follow.

This is interesting and I think it speaks to your point about us having a disagreement in terms. I don't see many ads online. I've been very happy with my pihole + ublock origin + firefox setup. Honestly if I see ads online I take action to make sure I don't see them anymore, because that's in my control! My gripe is almost entirely with IRL "meatspace" ads, though I'd be happy to give up the arms race online.

It seems like we mostly agree after all?
> which may cause an invariant to break, thus potentially causing memory unsafety in whatever required that invariant

By that standard anything and everything might be tainted as "unsafe", which is precisely GP's point. Whether the unsafety should be blamed on the outside code that's allowed to create a 0-valued NonZero<…> or on the code that requires this purported invariant in the first place is ultimately a matter of judgment, that people may freely disagree about.
They announced the MOR feature in December 2024, so I wouldn't really say that's a big selling point for them just yet, they have been around for over a decade.

Major government decisions being made by a cabal of people recruited on a whim to work out of Signal groups, outside the reach of record keeping and transparency attempts.

It is. There is no reason to have an API for this data, it should never be leaving IRS systems.

The crime is broadcasting without a license.

We are all guilty, making waves, swamping the spectrum with antagonistic signals that often interfere with each other.

We have too many signals in our society. The resulting noise, the cacophony of lies, are echoed and amplified and evolve into perpetual crosstalk and distortion.

Too many signals transmitting too frequently with too much power.

We can't really outlaw advertising.

But we could limit and license spectrum, like we do with radio frequencies. We could legislate the broadcasting and publication of information, based on that extended simile: regulating 'antenna power' and the airwave spectrum... Holding any broadcaster responsible for the public welfare of their listeners.

We share the infosphere. These channels are theoretically owned by us, the aggregate public. Certainly we are all swimming in the same ocean.

We might want to agree on some boundaries, and even licensing, for broadcasters.

In all likelihood they just don't want to broach the idea of having to fight (and potentially lose) the GPL3 in court. Given the case history on the GPL2, it seems like more work than it's worth. They can just replace the parts that are "problematic" in their eyes and avoid a whole class of issues.
Ah, the usual "A is an unpopular standard, so we decided to do our own proprietary thing". Guess what: for it become popular, it actually has to be implemented. If Google implemented it in Gmail, many of these purported issues would go away . It would still not truly be E2EE mail, but then again neither is this monstrosity.

It’s a disaster because email providers don’t want to offer E2EE or make it easy.

Is it that hard to generate a certificate for each email address client side and store that, and the private key encrypted with the user’s password, on the provider’s server?

The majority of email is gmail and Google could make that E2EE by default.

I know nothing about Gumroad's story or the CEO or any drama around it but I will say this.

I had someone once give me an affiliate link for Gumroad and I got credited a sale.

Gumroad wouldn't let me accept payment for it in a way that was reasonable for $17.

It first asked me for basic information like my name. Then it asked me for my address. Then it asked me for the last 4 of my social security number. Then it asked me for my full social security number along with uploading my driver's license or passport. All through out this process is was slowly collecting my personal information 1 form at a time and it was positioned where it didn't seem like it ever needed more than the single piece of info it asked for. Every time I submit 1 piece of information it said it failed to verify my account but never said why then asked for more.

I asked them for documentation or compliance reports on how my data was going to be stored and they ignored my support request.

I waited over 2 weeks for a response while asking following ups and got no reply. I stopped providing information after the last 4 of my social.

I decided to take a shot and emailed the CEO. In a few hours he personally Zelle'd me the amount with no questions asked and adjusted my account on Gumroad to reflect that. I don't know what to make of this, but it was disappointing I had to email the CEO to get $17 but he was very reasonable about it.

My perspective on GPL and related licenses changed a lot after working with lawyers on the topic. Some of the things I thought to be completely safe were not as definitive to the lawyers.

I don’t know Apple’s reasoning, but I know that choosing non-GPL licenses when available was one of the guiding principals given to us by corporate lawyers at another company.

It's the same in at least Python, so it's not a Rust idiosyncratic behavior. The "absolutize" method you're asking for exists since 1.79. https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/std/path/fn.absolute.html
You're making an assumption that the professional career civil servants are in charge. The whole theme of this administration is that they are dismantling the administrative state and the civil service. The political echelon has made it extremely clear that if they want something, the civil service cannot stop them from getting it, regardless of tradition or legality. So when DOGE says they want probationary employees fired, but the law says that probationary employees can only be fired for performance or conduct reasons, then OPM directs the agencies to fire probationary employees for performance, and the agency carries out that directive. Does it matter that nobody has actually assessed the performance of these employees? Or that OPM has no authority to direct an agency to fire anyone? No. You see this pattern again and again - agencies giving DOGE root access to systems, the administration ignoring statutes that say they have to notify congress or provide a reason before firing someone, etc. Dismantling agencies despite statutes that explicitly state that only Congress can do that.

There are absolutely no institutional guardrails. If Mike Waltz says he wants to put his personal contacts into Signal, nobody is going to stop him from doing that because they know from numerous examples that the administration does not care about laws or civil service protections an is happy to fire anyone who stands in their way.
It is a lot crazier when you Google politicians and the search page is clearly curated using the 'right to be forgotten' law in the EU. I don't feel like that was the intention behind the law, but then again, the ones abusing it are the ones who passed it.
I feel like I've experienced the opposite honestly. I'm a mechanical engineer, and my wife's old college friends consist of a bunch of silicon valley techies.

Out of 10 people off the top of my head, most of them have been laid off in the past 5 years. For the ones that found new jobs (that I know) they are not satisfied with their pay.

I've talked my pay vs theirs and am shocked. Almost a decade worth of experience, making what I was making 4 years into engineering, in non management positions, and worse job security.

I could be mixing up programmer vs SWE. I just call them techies.
You've taken small snippets of my text and stood them up as lone straw-men to argue against, instead of arguing against my actual premise.

No, murder is not comparable to advertising. And no, not once did I ever say the phrase "self-regulating" nor did I argue against regulation of advertising.

Your fundamental belief (and the prevailing view on HN) that advertising is a scam and intended to "misinform" is incorrect. Apparently I need to say this again because it's hard to grasp the concept of nuance--Are some advertisements scams? Absolutely. The market is not perfectly efficient, but again, markets trend in the direction of efficiency over long periods.

Ultimately, the vast majority of advertisements you see are for the products that are the most desired by people, hence why they can profitably continue advertising over time.

Just because you aren't interested in the product, doesn't mean it's a scam . Enough people in the audience of whatever media you consume think otherwise, hence why the company is advertising there. Again, there are absolutely stupid companies wasting money on stupid ads, but they tend to get outcompeted by the smarter ones. I get it though, giving people you believe are less intelligent than you the freedom to make decisions is frustrating.

Even in your example of the slap-chop, which you say is a "worthless product," funny enough, I literally just used a similar product yesterday to dice a large amount of onions quickly. Guess I'm stupid and I need an authoritarian like you to tell me a smarter way to live.

Alternatively though, the idea that knife makers don't promote their products is just hilarious to me. The market for kitchen knives is extremely competitive and just because the advertising doesn't take the form of a 30 second TV spot from the 1990s doesn't mean they just throw their products on the market with zero promotion. How do you think certain brands even appear on the shelves of the stores you shop in? You're gonna hate this too...turns out shelf space is scarce so shelf space is a market as well, and it's more of an economic calculation than one of technical passion. Oh no not again!

You've just listed out a bunch of alternate trust roots which, with appropriate infrastructure, could also easily provide practically secured E2E communications which would be adequate for real world use.

The point isn't "trust the government" the point is trust is contextual and the notion of "key signing parties" always missed it (and if you actually go and read up on the concept, government ID documents were considered to be something to ground whether a signature should be issued by someone so it was already baked into the system anyway).

Alfalfa Hay farmer here. The Guardian posts ridiculous clickbait garbage like this all the time.

GPL3 closes what was considered a loophole, where device makers would ship a product derived from GPL’d code, and release the source, but provide no ability for users to actually compile and run that source on the device (this was called “tivo-ization” at the time, because TiVo did it.)

So for iOS, it’s pretty obvious why they don’t use gplv3… because it would violate the terms.

For macOS they could certainly get away with shipping gplv3 code, but they do a lot of code sharing between iOS and macOS (and watchOS/tvOS/visionOS/etc) and it doesn’t make much sense to build on a gplv3 foundation for just one of these operating systems and not the others. So it’s simpler to just not use it at all.

It also means they’re more free to lock down macOS from running your own code on it in the future, without worrying about having to rip out all the gpl3 code when it happens. Better to just not build on it in the first place.

There are a couple things on my top dislikes of US politics and not having more restrictions on politicians is up near the top.

I have to follow much more stringent disclosures and controls as part of a large private entity that does investment. It’s absurd that folks making policy, who have a potentially closer ear to the ground are not more restricted.

The 30 days self reporting disclosure period is a joke too. It’s after the fact, has no real penalty for being late and AFAIK they don’t maintain any real restriction lists so it has no impact.

Eh, I swap between the big three every day and they're all terrible in their own unique manners. macOS certainly has problems, and Apple's adversarial relationship with open source is not helping anything, but I wouldn't call macOS bad, just not suited for everyone's needs.
The question is not whether the language should include such a facility, but whether 'as' should be the syntax for it. 'as' is better than the auto conversions of C but it's still extremely obscure. It would be better to have some kind of explicit operator marking this kind of possibly unintended modulo conversion. Rust will gain safe transmute operations in the near future so that will perhaps be a chance to revise this whole area as well.
