The way they’re using hard-fork and soft-fork, is that based on the blockchain usage of the words? If so, that makes it hard for me to take seriously!

This is a fair defense of C, but C++ is what deserves the heat. C is portable assembly, C++ isn’t.

Scrolling shitty cable is much less fun and therefore less addictive. It’s also not always available.

But both are terrible ways to spend your time and bad for your brain.

Math problems are quite similar in this way!

The word “method” already has a definition in Rust, which includes all intrinsic and trait methods. I feel like ‘dyn’ is relatively rarely useful and defining the term “method” based on what’s compatible with it is a bad idea.

“Ethics” for what is almost certainly an honest mistake with a reasonable diligence of research? Accusing someone of ethics violations should require more research than you’ve done!

Would you have found out about those earlier sources without Wikipedia? I think it really depends on how obscure they actually were. I’d take the fact that neither Wikipedia nor this article knew about these earlier sources in 2014 as evidence that they were pretty obscure.

This is a surprising take.

Linux as a project is the kernel. Unlike most OSes, the most commonly used libc is maintained separately. As a result, Linux the operating system is the one where it’s the most common and supported to avoid the “standard” libc because the kernel itself has a stable interface.

Yeah, I remember reading the code in the kernel that handles shebang a long time ago. ld.so is not involved.

Clickbait implies a specific intent to mislead for clicks, whereas I think there’s a completely good-faith disagreement here about the meaning of the word “memory leak.”

The Rust docs are for some reason much worse than the Python docs, or at least that used to be the case

I mean, pretty high. What if your boss just tells you to learn polars, and you don’t know why? Saying what something is, is just good communication, and can help clarify for people who are confused.

I am literally asking whether this can run on DOS. It’s become clear that it can’t, and words mean things. Given the article is about running web servers literally on DOS, I think we can safely say it’s been brought.

Modern Windows command line is not DOS.

Writing in Rust when appropriate is improved modern coding practice.
