He’s just not fully materialized yet.
This is sad. I really like the app!
What’s everyone using instead?
The Bangle.js 2 is pretty cool
Congrats!
In this context the use of “they” is just proper English though. I can’t fault someone who speaks a gendered language from using gendered pronouns as is proper in that language, but the use of “they” in English is correct and hardly political or exclusive. Every language is going to have rules that may be strange to non-native speakers, but any “confusion” is easily remedied by explaining that’s just how the language works. I find that’s also part of the fun of learning another language. I especially love trying to mix the rules of one language into another to see how silly it sounds. :)
Yup! Also languages in the ML family and others I’m sure.
Nope. In Rust, a semicolon denotes a statement while a lack of semicolon is an expression so you can’t just omit them at will. This does lead to cool things though like if/else blocks being able to produce values if they end in an expression. But the expression type is checked so you’re less likely to make a mistake. You can see an example here: https://doc.rust-lang.org/rust-by-example/flow_control/if_else.html
In JavaScript I never skip semicolons because I’ve seen those subtle bugs.
Yeah, semicolons are ugly anyway and they’d ruin the beautiful expression of your code.
Sounds fun! I assume you’re read the Async Book?
Finally some positivity around async Rust!
I write a lot of embedded C for a living, and can’t wait for the ecosystem to get better so I can switch to Rust. Threading always starts simple. All I need is to spawn a thread and wait for a message on a queue. Then requirements change and I’m waiting on multiple messages from multiple other threads and suddenly I’m writing yet another state machine that async Rust would write for me.
I also wish I had “coloured” functions in my embedded code. Often times it’s not even documented if a function blocks or not, and sometimes the behaviour changes depending on compile time configuration (blocking, or interrupt driven, or DMA, etc.).
Async Rust certainly has it’s complexity too, but at least to my brain it would make a lot of my code much simpler.
I need to find some time to really dig into Embassy one of these days.
Jaffa kree!
I’m curious what you use it for. I use Ivy and it had good fuzzy matching.
Sega Dreamcast. It had and IMO still has some of the most unique games ever. Crazy Taxi, Powerstone, Jet Set Radio, the list goes on!
Taking your data to flavortown!
"The global video game business is big but barely growing, Spencer noted to me. One measure, from industry research firm Newzoo, estimates that 2023 game industry revenues were up just 0.6% from 2022. "
So still growth and a little bit more revenue. Total justification for mass layoffs. 🙄
I don’t use Flatpak much, but I rarely see issues. Sometimes I see minor things like themes not quite being right, but its never been bad enough for me to spend the time to fix it.
I suppose another downside is the need to have the base runtime packages, so it could take more disk space if each app uses a different one. In practice apps will share runtimes though.
I’ve never heard of Skiff, but it’s sad to see more software gobbled up by VCs. Though it sounds like the back end was never OSS to begin with?
I used to be so excited about a future where people were software literate where we would be building open systems and make a decent living. Instead, people have been force fed locked down systems in the name of “user experience”, all so that a few people can make an absolute killing while the rest of us feed off the scraps (even if the scraps of the software industry are still pretty good). It just makes me sad.
I am extremely appreciative of folks who do make honest open source software though! Many of them do make a decent living too. It’s hard not to lose hope when reading stuff like this, but then I remember that I’m typing this comment using Firefox on KDE Plasma running on a Linux kernel, right next to an Emacs session. Sticking to good open source software is a wonderful thing!
I’ve started using btop to kill processes instead of the ps, grep, kill incantation.
The software will likely work, but keep in mind that you’ll have to add VM startup time when you want to use the software. I have occasionally seen software behave strangely in a VM as well, so best to just try it.
Can you share the software you went to use? Maybe there’s a good Linux alternative or someone knows how to get it working in wine.
