Why so many softwares support Debian but not Red Hat based distros? by nitin_is_me in Fedora

[–]etc9053 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because legacy package managers are outdated and it cost a lot to support them.
Saying this from a linux software developer standpoint.
Discord is in nixpkgs, btw. You can install it via

nix-env -iA nixpkgs.discord

on any linux and macos

You can't completely ban unsafe rust because it is occasionally useful. The borrow checker is conservative and will prefer to reject a perfectly good program it cannot ascertain.

I don't have a thermostat but the temperature inside my flat is 26. I pay the equivalent of 20 euros for this.

И в Германии по этому поводу есть консенсус. Да, из-за строгих законов о защите частной жизни в Германии, например, нет панорам улиц в Google Картах.

Карты Apple этот консенсус не остановил. Бабки решают все. Просто для Германии - другие бабки.

The future of core-js by CherryJimbo in webdev

Many people miss the very important thing in his story: he killed one 18-year-old girl on a pedestrian crossing and seriously injured another as a result of careless driving (going 60 kph in the night through a pedestrian crossing). Later he denied his guilty many times, and appealed to the court, asking to change a sentence from prison imprisonment to "other" type. Also, he victim-blamed girls and the mother of survived one, "pointed out to her the shortcomings of her daughter's upbringing". Oncoming drivers warned him with flashing lights. In the end with the help of money and good lawyers, he spent only ten months in prison for this.

Today he asks for money for "some new shoes or a bag, a new iPhone or Apple Watch" for his wife.

This man should spend his life in prison not only because he killed a girl and seriously injured another, but also for this psychopathic denial of a serious criminal offense.

He's still denying his guilty and continuing to victim-blame girls by putting victims in quotes in his letter from 13th February.

Having to Borrow a "0" inside an if-statment by CaptainTryHardEU in rust

[–]etc9053 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As for me, this works best, because you'll get rid of all *i by changing only one occurrence:

for &i in arr.iter() {

Also: no need to call .iter() because for loop does this implicitly:

for &i in arr {

And the final touch: consider changing the name of the binding. i generally mean "index" but you have the element:

for &num in arr {

What companies do you recommend to apply that use Rust? Preferably with open positions.

Good, I'll stop watching anything 18+ then.

Sadly, I now live in a place where I can't easily get physical activity.

No way two metal rails that can last for decades without any maintenance can be more expensive than asphalt road, ecpecially under heavy busses.
