Star imports aren't the only way, traits are another. Say you impl two traits and they end up both adding a symbol with the same name. Or you bring in an extension trait impl for a standard library type, and now the standard library ad

This isn't the only way a Rust stable update can break your compile. It can also happen simply because they add a symbol to the standard library, and that isn't even protected by language editions. https://predr.ag&#x2F

Just look at the code. Anywhere you like. There's nothing I can say that will be a substitute for seeing it yourself. I've had to use it as a library sometimes, and it's also really poorly designed as a library. There's

etcd is some of the most amateur code I've ever seen, despite being one of the oldest and presumably most mature "infrastructure" projects written in Go. goBGP is arguably even worse. I don't have a third place in mind t

I completely misunderstood your post, because I have the opposite problem, I've never broken a charge port but I've broken several cables.

Exactly. That said, it's nice to get a notification when it's done.

Try the relatively recent Anker Prime cables, the ones that are both braided and soft. I haven't managed to break one yet, despite breaking several past Anker cables that also claimed to be durable.

I'm still driven absolutely mad by how many devices are being released in 2026 that refuse to charge if they're connected to a port that negotiates USB Power Delivery. They don't fall back to 5V, they just don't charge a

One thing I miss from when I mained workstation-class Linux laptops is indeed just how tinkerable they were, in a way that didn't feel like a compromise because no other workstation-class laptop was smaller, and smaller laptops had lim

It's even weirder than that sometimes. For example, Subnautica on Steam has a hard dependency on Steam (whether or not you would call this DRM), but the exact same version number of Subnautica on Epic Game Store only checks for a comma

I think a big difference is that the less unsafe you want in your own code, the more you rely on crates to provide a safe abstraction for unsafe code in a centralized place where soundness holes are likely to be found. Of course it was alwa

I was also worried about the plastic tongue, but I have never managed to break one. In contrast, I have managed to irreperably damage the exposed metal contacts on multiple Lightning cables. If you'd asked me which should be more durab

To be fair, even state of the art of high-speed data cables are thick and relatively inflexible. I simply wouldn't want every cable to be a high-speed cable if that meant they were all chunky. I do agree that it should be clearer at a

Async ruined Rust for me, even though I write exactly the kind of highly concurrent servers to which it's supposed to be perfectly suited. It degrades API surfaces to the worst case :Send+Sync+'static because APIs have to be prepa

Like I said, if you prefer an integrated graphical UI, you can file feature requests against the one you prefer. What git itself does makes a lot of sense for the canonical CLI tool to do, though even then you can propose or prototype chang

If that's the kind of UX you prefer, please consider filing a feature request against your git UI of choice. My point is that git itself already has the core capability, and how convenient it is to use usually depends on your editor. (

I only agree if you have a bounded dataset size that you know will never grow. If it can grow in future (and if you're not sure, you should assume it can), not only will many data structures and algorithms scale poorly along the way, b

Yeah, I make it a habit to read the changelogs of every update to every direct dependency. I was anticipating this change for years, thanks for doing it!

I think the big difference is that if you just want to optimize for some objective, it's usually very clear how to do that from Apple's options, so there's not much research to be done. It can still be challenging to choose w
