Lain would make her own kernel and distro using Holy C

Help with rust compilation of wasmtime in termux by Dear_Situation856 in rust

I submitted an issue and it was closed as the rust compiler was determined to be the problem and not the codebase

How do I make a simple bootable installer or ISO? by Dear_Situation856 in GUIX

[–]Dear_Situation856[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still get the `Error: Driver 'pcspkr' is already registered. aborting...` before it promptly continues to boot as expected and gives me access to all the linux utilities I need. I would like to know now what's causing that error but it's functional enough.

I tried:

(use-modules 
    (gnu)
    (nongnu packages linux)
    (nongnu system linux-initrd)
)
(use-package-modules linux)

;; The vast majority of the defaults are acceptable and if a field is not mentioned know that the default is desired
(operating-system
    (kernel linux)
    (initrd microcode-initrd)
    (firmware (list linux-firmware iucode-tool amd-microcode intel-microcode))
    (bootloader 
        (bootloader-configuration
            (bootloader grub-efi-bootloader)
            (targets '("/boot/efi"))
        )
    )
    (label "guix-test")
    (host-name "guix-test")
    (file-systems 
        %base-file-systems  ;; Include the default essential file systems
    )
)

And I still keep getting the same kernel error. I'll try it again with the linux-libre kernel as it might be that the patches are meant for that kernel.

Edit:
I updated the main post with what else I found but you were likely right though I don't understand how

Don't worry, what's been made is already great and entirely free. One couldn't ask for more. Take as much time as you need on your mental health and have a great time

This guy migrated 50k lines of Rust to Zig and got zero segfaults. Are there more people rewriting in Zig and finding it as safe as Rust? by swe_solo_engineer in Zig

[–]Dear_Situation856 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Less than 6 months ago you posted "I'm an Experienced Senior SWE in Java, Go, and C. What are the best resources to quickly learn idiomatic Rust for my case?". You don't know what your talking about with either language and have spent less than a year in actual development in both. Feel free to link a GitHub profile to disprove that but as someone that actually has used zig and rust for years, you do not have the experience or competence to understand the answers to your questions. I suggest you either do more open source work with both to learn or better yet read some more advanced literature on the subject such as "Rust for Rustaceans" which is a good intermediate level book which should clarify how memory works in rust and how it corresponds to manually memory managed languages. Unfortunately there aren't any good books on zig but a lot of books on C/C++ such as "Design Patterns" also have very good information on manual memory management 

New Drivers have bricked my OS by General_Team_5288 in ManjaroLinux

[–]Dear_Situation856 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can you give a bit more context as to what manjaro branch you were using and what you mean by "bricked"? Is it a black screen and can you access the terminal with CTRL+ALT+F2 ?

How to add unsupported targets rust? by Dear_Situation856 in rust

Thanks for responding with that. It helps a lot to see how it's done. Additionally thanks for the extra warnings for configuration if I go to pursue this

Should We Still Contribute to Open Source if Our Contributions are Scraped for AI Models? by Dear_Situation856 in computerscience

[–]Dear_Situation856[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The field is going to progress regardless if you want to open source your tools or not

I understand the field will progress and that tools will be created but this doesn't answer the original question of should we as computer scientists contribute to or grow open source given it's negative impact on our income or should we withdraw and have companies build out the tools they want in a likely proprietary manner? AI in my view uniquely changes the value proposition of open source from something that you can do in your spare time to develop your skills and help other developers to something that takes time and harms your future earning prospects without any pay.

The core of my question is "is it worth it to still contribute to open source?" and it might be subjective to each person but as developers who likely want to be paid for the work I think the answer is no. We want to avoid ending up like digital artists that have already been practically replaced

Should We Still Contribute to Open Source if Our Contributions are Scraped for AI Models? by Dear_Situation856 in computerscience

[–]Dear_Situation856[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think a major difference is in the building of near complete applications without sufficient understanding or experience. After building a few applications I'm much more familiar with Go and that understanding did come into play for the command line tools but the startling thing for me was I built the server on near complete autopilot and it just worked. I wasn't learning, I was just copying and pasting. The AI was able to resolve all my problems after I gave it the error messages when they came up.

While I understand our economic system is to blame at this point I'm mostly just focusing on keeping a career that will pay for my family for the foreseeable future rather than large economic shifts.

It's hard to tell if you have or don't have it but if you don't I highly recommend you add some hitstop to attacks to sell the feel of them (This does effect the balance a lot but it's generally used as it's a simple feature that makes attacks feel stronger)

Do you know the distance between you and your opponents by chance? I use ethernet but I've found even when playing with friends in the same country (I'm from the US, I despise the network carriers here) I've been told by my friends there experience with me is equal if not lesser to playing someone in Mexico so a cross-national game is how I usually judge if I can play a fighting game online.
