It's not like they are programming communism into Lemmy.

OMG, thank you! I have been using Iced. My simple application's RAM just went down from 80 MB to only 4 MB.

The executable size went down from about 8 MB to 2.5 MB

I am happy there is no obvious "any" type in Rust.

The hardest part is getting away without using google services. Tons of apps depend on it especially google maps. There are ways around this, but they don't always work.

It would be great if someone could build a Lemmy bot to do this for videos.

Go to https://programming.dev/search and type "rust" into the communities dropdown

The weird part is that whatever they think of dictators, they would know the model, and that gives me a bizarre amount of trust.

Can you explain this more?

I like this response. Indeed, if we don't have strong expectations from the devs to finish by a certain time, then we shouldn't have such expectations on QA.

Indeed, a lacking multiline text is what stopped me from trying to use it as well. But with the minesweeper example, I thought "it's just a bunch of buttons, surely this is simple enough for me to build?"

But no, the button widget doesn't support right clicks or double clicks, which limits the functionality I can build into minesweeper.

Overall, I love how simple Iced code ends up being, which makes me think about contributing to this project. Only issue I have with it is this seeming inefficiency.

The guy who commented titles are bullshit, had made a post earlier about him being a new manager. Out of everyone who commented so far, you sound like the most experienced.

Indeed, I am officially not a manager. But I wish I was!

I can't wait for the release. I wish I knew when it will be. That is when I plan to switch away from Windows.

So which of these is the "sad truth" the title seemed to allude to?

Everyone, including me, report to the same boss. This boss is largely absent, and mostly focused on project level, never really thinking on a person level. That is why I have been trying to fill that role.

I do not approve budgets or time off requests. That falls on my boss. He has been messing up the time-off requests BTW, and I had to talk with him on behalf of one of my team members, to get it fixed.

Ah, it is not fully clear - Everyone including me in the team is a contractor. There are no performance reviews. Perhaps in the future we might all be converted into employees, but not now. The one-on-one discussions - is there anything bothering them? Do they like the tasks they are working on? Do they want to work on something else?

Example 1 on 1 result: I have a guy who is great from a technical perspective, but has significant anxiety about public speaking. Simply talking in scrum gave him anxiety. (He is 100% remote) After talking with him about this, I let him skip the scrum calls and just let him write me his updates.

It sprays into the toilet

mmstick, it is always good to hear from you. You frequently provide a huge depth of knowledge in your comments.

I come from a windows background. If I want to make a memory efficient GUI, I always used native windows GUI libraries. All other frameworks have always seemed like they took up much more memory and CPU. This always annoyed me.

My little Minesweeper game is taking 78 MB of memory (with --release).

At the same time, Excel is only 2.5 MB, Notepad++ is only 1.9 MB.

Recently I found out that a lot of memory and CPU is used up simply to communicate with the GPU. I am confused about this.. Does Excel not use the GPU?

I am sorry, I feel like I am starting to rant here. This memory issue has been annoying me for a while, and I have not heard anyone provide a clear reason why these complicated apps seems to take up much less memory than any simple cross-compatible app I build.

That's interesting, where do you live?

I'd beg to differ with Rust :)
