You are implying a centralized semi monopoly is the only way. If we had farmers to buyers direct distribution it would be much more resilient to this kind of problems.

Do you think that there is form of communication where you reach a higher understanding? Are we average Joes on HN?

> plenty of things Rust didn't solve

I agree on that too.

> Nor do I believe that Rust is the perfect tool for all tasks.

No disagrement here either.

I was just not really getting why you are attacking OP with assuming bad faith content from him immediatelly. Maybe I misread your comment.

I am sorry, but HN is probably the last place on Earth where you can wander off the mental plantation of single tech praiser people without much pushback. Perpetuating monocultural ideas and discouraging critical opinions is the way to create echo chambers that many online forums are poisoned with.

True. I would love to have less features in MacOS actually. We are approaching Windows start menu level of crap being installed by default.

My problem is that I do not want to replace one centralilzed service with another. I do not see any difference between the US and the EU (or Australia) in handling privacy. Most politicians are super keen on destroying privacy for people, for the "good cause". There are so many examples of this I lost count. We need strong encryption and true peer-to-peer networks where the connection is going through random routes (impossible to predict) and there is no government controll of any of the nodes it touches.

A lot. Problem is that sometimes the hardware is lost due to renovation to the building.

Is it possible to have Hindley–Milner type system for a LISP?

Comment · 1 year ago

True, however I only saw this happens to achieve max perf. I have very limited experience so this is confirmation bias from my end.

I see what you mean. You can use it with mise that has build support.

I have moved to uv few months back and never looked back. I use it with venv and it works very well. There is a new environment handling way with uv:

- uv init new-py-env

- cd new-py-env

- uv add jupyter

- uv build

These are executed super fast. Not sure if this could help your situation but it is worth to be aware of these.

I thought that the point of Rust is to have safe {} blocks (implicit) as a default and unsafe {} when you need the absolute maximum performance available. You can audit those few lines of unsafe code very easily. With C everything is unsafe and you can just forget to call free() or call it twice and you are done.

Is this suffering from the same problems like Redis when trying to horizontally scale?
