This is completely vibecoded, conceptually a bad idea and seems to be doing weird promotion. Who cares?

The pre-release marketing was also written for an entirely different product. Even the narration of the extensive gameplay footage they showed was completely dishonest, at a point in time where the product was very close to its release state.

Is there a source for these haughty, cackling archeologists making fun of hairdressers or is that just to manufacture some kind of underdog victory scenario?

There's no need to turn everything into a genration war. Computer literacy and a sense for maintaining privacy comes and goes with different groups of people depending on their upbringing. The ones who cared about their privacy to the point that they would refuse cookies on every site are definitely not the ones who roll over and let the AI agents access all of their data. A lack of good education and deliberate influence of the advertisement and tech industry has led us to this point and snarky flamebait on twitter isn't getting us anywhere.

Missing feature != Inability to customize

They are even free to thanklessly maintain X11 for all the other contrarian fossils, because the developers sure aren't doing it anymore.

It's incredibly surprising that neglecting infrastructure investments for a mere few decades would have such an effect.

Mozilla, where Rust was originally conceived, have already talked about this risk factor ages ago when they were still working on Servo. Reimplementing battle-tested software in a different language can result in logic bugs being introduced, which no programming language can really prevent. Many times they will actually reintroduce bugs that have already been historically fixed in the original implementation. This doesn't invalidate the benefits of moving to a very memory safe language, it just needs to be taken into consideration when determining whether it's worth the risk or the effort.

Honestly I have no idea whether sudo-rs is a good idea or not, but I have my doubts that any of the other people (especially the very vocal kind) chiming in on this do. Any time Rust is involved in the Linux community, a lot of vocal critics with very little knowledge of the language or programming in general seem to appear.

XML aims to be both human-readable and machine-readable, but manages neither. It's only really worth it if you actually need the complexity or extensibility, otherwise it's just a major pain to map XML structures to any sensible type representation. I've been forced to work with some of the protocols that people like to present as examples of good XML usage and I hate every single one of them.

Fuck YAML though. That spec is longer and more complex than any other markup language I know of and it doesn't have a single fully compliant implementation.

I get that it's supposed to be a meme, but aside from the first one these aren't even rust stereotypes. Is this a meme specifically for people who haven't used rust, know nothing about rust but have maybe heard that it's a programming language?

1. Increase CEO pay
2. Repeat as needed

Having really dry skin does not help with grip.

Of course the family that prints every second word bold for no fucking reason is into bold outfits.

Do medieval shows only hire conventionally unattractive men? I always thought the convention was to have attractive people play important parts or "good" characters, regardless of gender, but admittedly I don't really watch many medieval shows.

He's gonna do it instead.

1. Set lower bound by counting how many are visible in the photo
2. Grow disinterested
3. Guess some number above the result from step 1

Can't wait for the followup piece to be a shitty ad for brave.

An evening spent admiring how thin that TV is.

I really hate the sentiment that you must be under the influence of something to reach a certain level of creativity. Some artists have found success with this and that's fine, but it is not a requirement. Not even for the most surreal and otherworldly art.

I'm not here to bicker

You came out fucking swinging. There's no need to act like you weren't looking for some kind of confrontation.
