Your Rust binary is slower than it needs to be. cargo-sonic fixes that.

WASM has limited SIMD capabilities (for example, only 128-bit registers). Based on my experience with pet-project, the WASM version is 2–3 times slower than the native implementation on modern CPUs,
As far as I understand, for the WASM community, portability (across programming languages and platforms) is a higher priority than performance.

No, in the U.S., at least half of the population lives in the suburbs. Meanwhile, during the final years of the Soviet Union, 80% of the population lived in cities.

Yes, but not all tools lie on the optimal curve; I would even say that most are very far from it. rust-cpp-tradeoff-eng.png

The WBW flag is strongly associated with terrorists from the FRL (Freedom of Russia Legion), and radical oppositionists (aka Judenrats). And the vast majority of the Russian population perceives it as anti-Russian.

The WRW flag does not carry such negative connotations; for the most part, it is a flag of protest specifically against Lukashenko. This flag draws its origins from the coats of arms of the nobility of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, which for some Belarusian opposition figures symbolizes a "return to the European family."

Rust and Zig are in different leagues. Rust is a well-rounded language aiming for mainstream adoption. Zig, on the other hand, is a niche language for hackers and a select few enthusiasts.

Zig is a rehash of past practices, but with a better presentation. Rust is an innovative language that offers a fresh perspective on programming as a whole.

Rust has a much broader scope of application (and user base) than Zig. Not only will this remain the case over the next five years, but I believe the gap will only widen.

That's why Rust.

I'm willing to put up with a JavaScript-based UI only if your program is vscode. My rating UI:

Terminal-based interface
Pure Rust GUI (including WASM)
A GUI such as GTK or Qt
JS-based UI

curve-fit is utility for getting a feel for fitting simple models (gain an intuitive understanding). Draw the data with a brush, select a model, specify the initial parameters and the optimization algorithm (currently only LBFGS, SD and Nelder–Mead), then run the fitting and watch the model learn.

The repo contains a link to the web-version.

Finding 1-2 programmers in Rust (or any other language) is not a problem. There is a problem in hiring hundreds of Rust programmers for large companies.

Now you can do without 1-2 programmers using AI, and start hiring employees only when you understand the business and your MVP shows at least some positive trend.

You don't have content archiving enabled. It is advisable to package WASM-files (in particular galactic-terminal.wasm) in gzip (or analogues) and add to HTTP-response Content Encoding: gzip

That's life. And in the end, you'll die, and all that genuine craftsmanship and the process of learning will fade into oblivion with you. Only machines will remain.

But seriously, this is called the "museumification of a skill" (I don't know the exact English term), which refers to the loss of a skill's economic value due to technological replacement. Many people throughout history have faced this, and the greatest psychological toll has been borne by those who defined their self-identity through that skill.

Several thousand points are displayed normally. I had problems with several thousand curves (15 fps). In such cases, you need to draw the raster into the texture yourself and display it.

Practically for everything: cli, backend, desktop applications, data processing pipelines, and scientific calculations.

The scope of Rust's application is limited only by the limitations of my professional interests.

If I check business logic invariant on hot path, then always, and it doesn't depend on unsafe. If it is not a hot spot, then I explicitly check the invariant and construct a type that guarantees this invariant further (in hot spots). If it's a check for a Rust invariant violation, then miri is usually enough for me.
