  • Just browsing my photos from 10 years ago. I was amused when I browsed the university library computer science artificial intelligence shelf. ...I sometimes wish AI had stayed at this level.

  • I'm not sure what people think AI was ever going to be... every time something new comes out it's always dismissed because "it's basically just a X that does Y". I think that will continue to be the case until there is some literal connection to actual brains, in which case the concept of what a brain is will probably be questioned as well.

  • Randomly stumbling upon a font nerd was not on my bingo card today. I didn't know about Revue, thanks.

  • I think syntax preference plays an enormous role in convincing people to even try it.

  • It was better in audio/video quality and being smaller, but not runtimes.

  • I have, I still don't like it and I have tried several times to get used to it and I just can't. I don't see any problem in avoiding a language because of its syntax that is painful for me to look at all day.

    Regardless of whether you think those reasons are subjectively bad or not, it is the current reality for many developers.

  • It's wrong to force it. Most choices in history don't end up with the best one being used. Beta was better than VHS for example. Rust people are very bad at convincing others to try it, and objectively many people just don't want to or don't like it for various reasons.

    Personally I highly dislike the syntax. People like familiar things, and to me it's just too different from C++.

    If anything I think Swift will be an easier sell when the speed and cross-platform issues are solved.

  • NcursesPlus - Work in progress C++ convenience wrapper for ncurses

  • Any reason to use this over notcurses? Are there docs somewhere with examples on how to get started?

    UltraVNC is very guilty of this.

  • Did it work before on Pop? If so and you switched distros then you'll need to re-pair the controller itself (or clear its pairings and re-initiate the pair from the controller before it's visible to Bazzite) as the controller only remembers the pairing from your old OS install.

  • Google insists it's easy to add Rust code to your firmware • The Register

  • I want to see specific examples of serious bugs that rust would catch that clang -Weverything, clazy/clang-tidy and scan-build would not find for C++... because I'm still not convinced it is anywhere near worth learning at all for career/veteran C and C++ folks.

  • Forgejo is now copyleft, just like Git

    Jump

  • Guess it's time for yet another fork...

    Also the post seems to contradict itself:

    Both Forgejo and Git must be used together

    Forgejo codebase includes basic support for go-git, a Go package distributed under a permissive license that can be used in place of Git

    And the fact that it only needs an external binary that understands git commands tells me that it's not technically tied to "Git proper" as much as they want us to believe.
