I think there’s a lot of people who would be happy with a Chromebook in computer form, and those are also the market for Linux.

It shows the top line, so you just read top to bottom (and can scroll if you want).

You can set it to show what you want; if I’m doing TDD I’ll set it to show the test output, and then it’ll show the warnings beneath it.

You can switch between the views with a key (T for tests (or N for nextest), C for clippy, etc

But yes, it’s pretty similar to using watch.

My hope is that something like Servo gets good enough to be included, especially if it’s tree-shakable so you can only include a subset of the codebase. I don’t know if that’s a goal for either projects, but it would be cool - the default webviews can be quite lacking so currently you need to use a restricted set of HTML/CSS/JS to guarantee compatibility.

Ah yeah, missed that 🤦‍♂️

Because this is the internet, I can’t tell if the whoosh goes to your downvoters or you. I think you were joking, but that second sentence makes me wonder…

I pay for Nebula - $30 a year which is about £22.50. That won’t even cover two months of YouTube Premium (£12 pm), and there’s not even the discounted yearly option in the UK.

And “if you’re not paying you’re the product” is wrong - YouTube/Google would still be datamining my viewing habits to sell to advertisers.

100% the second one. It’s the idiomatic way to do this in Rust, and it leaves you with an immutable object.

I personally like to move the short declarations together (i.e. body down with language_id (or both at the top)) but that’s a minor quibble.

Perhapsburg they are

Only if enough people do it. Then again, loads scrapers outside of AI already pretend to be normal browsers.

The term you want is “cross compile”. I’ve developed simple programs for the Pi on Windows and it’s simple enough to produce a static binary (using Rust, anyway). When extra dependencies come in it’s better to develop on the same OS, but targeting different architectures is the easy bit.

Token-based string distances looks like exactly what I need for my current side project - I’m using Levenshtein but I should be comparing based on words, not characters.

I just need to figure out which (if any) of these does what I need.

Edit: looks like the Python version has that information: https://github.com/life4/textdistance?tab=readme-ov-file#algorithms

How did you find Leptos to work with? I never got further than the tutorial so I have yet to form a real opinion on it.

It’s a subtle difference between that and path::exists().

• path::exists() == false might just mean you can’t use it (if path::exists() cannot access a file due to e.g. permissions, it’ll return false)
• fs::exists() == Ok(false) means it’s definitely not there (permissions error will cause an Err to be returned)

Bad wording on my part, I wasn’t disagreeing. My file server has a /files directory because it saves me a few key strokes and because I can.

Is Gobo case-insensitive by default? Typing those seems annoying.

That’s an old image, though - Windows has a C:\Users\youruser setup like /home/youruser for a while now.

I find the %APPDATA% thing way less convenient than ~/.config and I’m quite happy when programs have the “bug” that they still use ~/.config on Windows.

The source story is worth a read.

Marrero’s background is in Navy intelligence, and she earned a master’s degree in business administration with a concentration in information security and digital management

Incredible.

she soon changed the “STINKY” Wi-Fi network name to another moniker that looked like a wireless printer — even though no such general-use wireless printers were present on the ship

Why not just switch off broadcasting the SSID?

[The CO and XO] then conducted another sweep inside the ship. Although the network that appeared to be a wireless printer appeared on their personal devices during their search, neither made additional inquiries regarding that network

No-one’s coming out of this looking good.

Marrero’s secret Starlink dish was removed the same day, and Marrero told another unidentified crew member the next day that it was authorized for in-port use — prompting sailors to re-install the illegal Starlink.

It just keeps going!

I like that idea of using the different fonts for e.g. Copilot suggestions - reminds me of reading Asterix comics as a kid when they’d use gothic black for the Goth’s speech, etc.

edit: e.g.

I’m of the belief that spawning threads on demand is an anti-pattern; threads should spawn on program startup, and sleep until they have work to do.

Hmm, I need to think on this to decide whether I agree. What’s your reasoning for this opinion? Is it just based on lower latency, or is it more of an architectural/correctness thing?
