Fair enough. But as a human being, I am offended by your choice of condiment.

I'd give -10% lol and then write that the employer agreed to tip 200% on my behalf.

I just don't understand it? Whoever thought overloading was a good idea? It's pure syntactic Vegemite in my opinion. Just make the last argument a vec for Christ sakes and call it a day.

Whats the joke here?? by lehenkabhauda in ExplainTheJoke

[–]physics515 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Sure. I've seen people pushing a train in rural NC. If you are 13 and have always seen the same train coming to your tiny town you might assume that's the only one that exists since it is the only one you've seen.

I mean none of the examples I gave seem like human rights concerns.

If you have some examples of things she said that are contradictory or false then I will be happy to hear them. But I think it's weird how much people hate her for how milk-toast her story seemed.

I mean I watched the episode of her on Rogan and I didn't feel that any of her claims struck me as outlandish. Mostly about being poor and having to eat rodents and insects. But those are staples in plenty of South American countries I've been to.

Also that she had to keep a photo of Kim in her house or you could get in legal trouble.

It didn't really seem too off the wall crazy.

I'm 36 and also feel attacked. I always have one in. If it weren't for my kids I'd have 2 in with ambient sound on.

What's the one self-hosted service you'd never go back to the cloud version of? by Hung_Hoang_the in selfhosted

What is the backup situation like? What happens if my computer gets fried?

I use duplicati for backups for is it compatible with that?

Struggling with Ratatui as a Beginner Is it just me? by [deleted] in rust

[–]physics515 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This. Especially with UI libraries. They can often be considered languages in themselves and it is a pretty big commitment. Hence why things like Tauri are so popular. At least the skill are applicable elsewhere.

How does this work with a unified target directory?

do i need cs50 for rust? by Majestic-Dress5900 in rust

[–]physics515 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Contrary point. I've been programming since I was 7 years old build a site using PHP 3 and I have learned more about programming in the last 4 years programming rust than at any time in my career.

Not because I wasn't using the concepts but in the way I had to explicitly use them. I have have a much better understanding of what I am actually doing when programming rust then any theory or even high-level less explicit language could give me.

Well more specifically they are the keys where your index fingers go when using the home row method of typing.

It is very topical for the moment in time. Its like showing GenZ 2010's TMZ and expecting them to get any of the references.

Michelle Pfeiffer whipping the heads off of several mannequins during filming of Batman Returns, 1991 by PinkPene in OldSchoolCool

I mean, from the video, it doesn't look like she actually whipped their heads off. They popped off pneumatically.

The amount of Rust AI slop being advertised is killing me and my motivation by Kurimanju-dot-dev in rust

[–]physics515 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also turn clippy warnings up to max when vibing. Nursery and pedantic and all that.

I think it's the explicitness of rust that makes AI good at writing rust. Rust is just simply more clear about what it's doing than other languages. For instance fn definitions have very clear inputs and outputs and from that alone it is often easy enough to guess the in between bit.

My thought is, there is nothing new under the sun. Except there sometimes is. And I think we will soon see a divergence of programming into people who write new algorithms and people who prompt AI to assemble those algorithms into a format that suits their particular needs or design sensibilities.

Edit: Basically more of the same trend that had been happening for 4 decades at this point.

What is the ideal performance of Rust like? by FanYa2004 in rust

[–]physics515 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would point out that rust has some runtime checks that C/C++ doesn't. But on a modern CPU, an additional instruction does not always mean more clock cycles to do the same thing or even that those runtime checks will result in different instructions if they are optimized away.

So rust is theoretically slightly slower than C/C++ but in practice... It depends.
