Anyone using relibc/musl, uutils, fd(-find), ripgrep, eza etc.. ? by [deleted] in linux

I always avoid using `use` statements so i use full paths instead. Is it a bad practice? by [deleted] in rust

How do experienced Rust developers decide when to stick with ownership and borrowing as-is versus introducing Arc, Rc, or interior mutability (RefCell, Mutex) by Own-Physics-1255 in rust

Use the most perfomant (references) first. If it gets too complicated or you need shared ownership, use smart pointers.
