You don’t like it? Go donate to Servo: https://opencollective.com/servo

You would need entire new compass to place vi, vim, neovim, lazyvim, spacevim, lunarvim and so on on it.

They offer free build time on windows and mac. There are also specific integration for GitHub not available for other platforms. I don’t rely on it for storing my code, just for building. I could spend a month and migrate to a different platform but so far there was no point.

System vs Toy?

It’s hard to argue with that statement. Like, literally, I have no idea who rust evangelists are, where to look for them and how to find out what “most” of them think about anything.

The really annoying part is all the people saying that you shouldn’t like Rust because actually it’s not magically bug free. Yeah, no shit. No one who touched Rust claims it lets you write bug free code. People like Rust because it’s modern, fast, has great tooling, great documentation and really nice features like Traits and Algebraic data types. Memory and thread safety is just a bonus.

Is this IPv5?

Quick, what was your last project you didn’t finish?

For me it was app to prepare for nautical exams. I wrote a scraper that downloaded all official tests and answer sheets, trained image recognition model to find the marked answers and started working on parsing the question PDFs but then I had to find a new job and never got back to it.

In my experience rust compiler simply moves the errors to earlier stage of development. With rust I write something and get bunch of errors right in the IDE. I spend some time fixing those and when all the compilation errors are gone in 99% of cases the code works and does what it’s supposed to do.

With other languages I write some code and the compiler/interpreter says it’s all good. I then run it, get bunch of errors and have to do some debugging, move back and forth between the editor and the command line/browser/application and fix all the bugs one by one.

So yeah, rust compiler complains a lot but it’s to make your life easier, not harder. For me working rust way is just much more pleasant. I get immediate visual clues about the errors right in the IDE. When I finally get it right and all the errors dispersal it’s like solving a small puzzle. You know you got it and it feels good. With other languages you think you got it all the time only to find another bug when you run it. Doing it this way is much more frustrating.

Actually, in Java 24 it’s:

void main() { println("Hello World"); }

Back in my day we would program using office hole puncher and going to a library every time we needed to look up some API information.

What if you made all of the uppercase?

No upper case or special chars? Kinky!
