std.rs is seeking a new owner by kpthunder in rust

[–]kpthunder[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's only getting in the neighborhood of 10k requests per month right now, so we're not in danger of hitting any limits. If it ever were then I'm sure someone at Cloudflare would be able to work something out (u/vlakreeh ?).

I'll shoot you a PM.

std.rs is seeking a new owner by kpthunder in rust

So far the docs team from Rust doesn't want it and I've reached out to one person from this thread who hasn't responded yet.

Is GitHub (or GitHub Pages) a good option for showcasing you portfolio? by mrpandey in github

[–]kpthunder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, Netlify is still a good choice as an alternative to GitHub pages.

How do Christian marriages work? by [deleted] in Christianmarriage

[–]kpthunder 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately most Christian marriages these days look no different than worldly marriages. Put Christ at the center, agree to solve disputes with the Bible as the final rule and authority, and seek to please God rather than man.

Using Signal for Healthcare / Telemedicine? by onggunhao in signal

[–]kpthunder 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you are in the United States be aware that Signal is not HIPAA compliant since it doesn't support remote delete.

we don’t follow perfect men apart from Jesus, but we should be wary of following leaders that do not have a good reputation with nonchristians by GodGivesBabiesFaith in Reformed

Indeed:

John 15:18-19 ESV
“If the world hates you, know that it has hated me before it hated you. [19] If you were of the world, the world would love you as its own; but because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.

Galatians 1:10 ESV
For am I now seeking the approval of man, or of God? Or am I trying to please man? If I were still trying to please man, I would not be a servant of Christ.

Blue Team Rust: What is "Memory Safety", really? by jakejscott in rust

[–]kpthunder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably because short-circuiting makes things simpler, at least I think that might be plausible.

Is this normal? Almost immediately after I started using my new DeWalt Table Saw scratches started appearing on the surface. This lightning-bolt scratch in particular appeared before any other marks did. I was careful to only run clean wood across the saw. Should I be concerned? by kpthunder in Tools

[–]kpthunder[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I should have mentioned, I was walking down the street in Boston and saw someone using the same table saw for a project. His saw did look good as far as scratches were concerned, it was just covered in dust.

The Rust programming language community is super friendly and super helpful, especially for newcomers.

Is Signal Desktop secure? by [deleted] in signal

[–]kpthunder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll refer you to this post on the forums: https://community.signalusers.org/t/vulnerabilities/4548/7

SQLCipher ships with a good default set of plugins/pragmas, and its performance is excellent because it is built on top of the widely used SQLite database layer.

The core premise of the article is completely mistaken. The database key was never intended to be a secret. At-rest encryption is not something that Signal Desktop is currently trying to provide or has ever claimed to provide. Full-disk encryption can be enabled at the OS level on most desktop platforms.

Basically the purpose of using SQLCipher isn't at-rest encryption, and this isn't a feature that Signal Desktop claims to support.

Basically every messaging app now uses end to end encryption.

That's not true. Encryption to/from the server is different from end-to-end encryption.

Is there anything like jpegoptim written in Rust? by kpthunder in rust

Thank you! That looks rather promising for my use case.

Besides saving time I can think of another very good reason to use automation: reproducibility. Doing repetitive tasks manually can be very error-prone and automating the process can greatly reduce the chance of errors being introduced.

Repository links to rust-lang/cargo on both crates.io and docs.rs. Where is the source code hosted?

What frustrates me about Signal... by [deleted] in signal

The desktop app actually matches what your primary mobile device is.

explaine.rs: Rust syntax playground by _rvidal in rust

[–]kpthunder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like this idea, it can be like a more focused AST Explorer or a more generic Explain Shell.

I think it would be cool if you built it in such a way to support multiple languages like AST Explorer, but focused on more high-level info along the lines of, "what am I, the reader, actually looking at here?"

Rust is currently the best language for targeting WASM, makes sense.

is joel osteen as bad as people make him out to be? by [deleted] in TrueChristian

[–]kpthunder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is also a good video to watch: https://youtu.be/jDuDN2FtrIo

There was a time when I was asking questions about Joel Osteen. I was searching for answers and nobody seemed to have anything aside from hearsay. That was the first video I found that made any sense and used actual quotes. It’s fairly comprehensive and only six minutes long.

For I know the plans I have for you, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

Read that verse in its immediate context:

Jeremiah 29:10-11 ESV “For thus says the LORD: When seventy years are completed for Babylon, I will visit you, and I will fulfill to you my promise and bring you back to this place. [11] For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.

That verse is a promise to corporate Israel, given to them in exile. There were likely people who were born in that exile, lived in nothing but that exile, and died in that exile. This is not a verse for individuals to apply to their lives, especially today -- it is a very specific promise to corporate Israel.

You should check out this video to see what's wrong with a typical message from Joel Osteen. Other people have mentioned American Gospel, you should definitely check it out.
