I’ve tried a lot of these veggie burgers and tbh at least where I’m from most of the time they kinda suck. I’ve had a few really really good ones but mostly they tasted mid.

Would that have even worked? I can’t imagine you’d be able to get anything better than PS2 graphics with just an extra CPU.

There’s no way 2 million people don’t notice the smell. Do they just really don’t give a fuck? Like how does wiping your body with something that smells like death compute for them?

We’re even when the PLA is in Brussels setting fire to the EU Parliament and in France taking paintings from the Lovure, not a second earlier.

Also no higher-order functions like map, filter, reduce etc.

Really weird design decision for a brand new language.

Comptime is pretty dope tho, I wish Rust had that instead of relying on macros so much.

It’s not THAT complicated but I wouldn’t call it dead simple. When you understand how git works internally yeah it’s pretty simple but people usually start with the idea that it’s a tool to put your code on a server to synchronize with other people and only later learn that you have both a local and a remote (or multiple remote) tree and how the tree really works.

I think the problem is most git 101 tutorials teach it wrong, IMO the best git tutorial is this: https://wildlyinaccurate.com/a-hackers-guide-to-git/

Unfortunately it’s pretty dense so it’s gonna scare off a lot of newbies.

Eh, that’s unfortunate. Yeah the whole ecosystem is still a bit wonky, probably more wonky than most popular languages but tbh I rarely used a stack that just worked out of the box, it almost always took some dicking around, I’d rather do the dicking around with a language that doesn’t always seem to work against me.

because no compiler can check to see if you thought of everything.

We can try to get closer to that with better language design. You’ll never get there but I think there are obvious benefits as to why you’d want to do that.

I write way less bugs in Rust than I have in Java or C++, and that’s mostly thanks to the language design.

I’m just tired of people entirely dismissing languages like C because they don’t have these features. Especially when the operating systems their code runs on and their languages may even be implemented in C!

Because that code has been review and re-reviewed and patched by experts in the field for years. You’re not gonna write a backend for an app with short deadlines in C because that would be absolutely fucking insane.

How long ago was this? I think the ecosystem got waaay better in the last 1-2 years. 3-4 years ago it was rough but shit still worked with a bit of trouble.

You need pkill -9 vim to really make sure it’s dead.

And if you need examples I invite you to read all of the responses in the thread objectively, and not as a hexbear user with already hurt feelings.

I actually did re-read the entire thread extremely objectively (I put on my maximum objectivity cap) and I stand by my initial conclusion that you’re a huge fucking baby.

If you can’t see all the hexbear users piling onto those that disagree with OP I don’t know what to tell you.

Again, that’s not piling on, that’s just your fragile ego not being able to handle a lot of people calling your opinion garbage.

Your persecution complex is showing.

Right back at you. Nobody is “piling on”, there’s just more people disagreeing with you than agreeing, deal with it baby.

You’re obnoxious. Hexbear is one of the largest instances, comparable to lemmy.ml which is where this was posted. There are also users from lemmy.ml and other instances agreeing with OP.

You’re just a huge fucking baby that thinks encountering lots of opposing opinions must be some grand conspiracy against you.

Just because there are some users that stumble upon content semi-organically doesn’t mean brigading and piling on isn’t happening.

You have any proof of this or are you just assuming that happens because you can’t fathom that many people actually disagreeing with you?

Why not?

Sorry I just don’t buy into the ideology that the free market has this kind of “magic sauce” that makes everything innovative and better.

The early Internet was filled of people doing all kinds of cool things for free just because it was interesting to do, the only thing the private sector did is provide the base infrastructure, this is something the state can easily do too. All kinds of communities, FOSS software and media popped up and none of them had VC funding or expected any money out of it.

It was only in mid-late 2000 that capital really sank its teeth into the Internet properly.

How would you have communicated without someone owning a server and paying for it?

You do realize the Internet first started being used by universities and the military, not the private sector, right? I see literally no reason why Internet infrastructure couldn’t be publicly owned. It could function pretty much like any other public utility.

Yes because people never communicated over the Internet before Glorious Visionary Entrepreneurs from the Great Private Sector took hold of it and gave us all these Valuable Products, they just sat on their ass wondering what to do with such technology like complete idiots.

I swear free market ideology is the dumbest shit you can possibly believe in, I’d sooner become a fucking Mormon.
