That's not how the fediverse works, Mathstodon is just one of many servers in the network (running the Mastodon software).

The chart also lists the control key combination for each control byte, for NUL, it's C-@.

What it boils down to is "Users who don't even know what a trigger is should be discouraged from handling footguns". Sure, if you don't have the resources to learn about the subject, you might miss out on some fun, but i

Users who don't even know the meaning of "unsafe" almost definitely shouldn't be writing unsafe code.

Both for_each() and collect() into a Vec exhaust the iterator.

Funny how the author both demands vague new ergonomics features (with no explanation how they might actually work), and at the same time demands the language team to stop adding new ergonomcis features.

Note: ad is a normal noun, not an initialism. It took me a couple moments to realize what you meant.

It looks like the author is confused about or unaware of the difference between static and dynamic dispatch. Their Display and Iterator types are really just vtables; the correct comparison to Rust would be the `dyn Display` and `dyn Iterat

In my experience, it's really just getting worse slower than google is. For the kind of queries that google already failed at years ago, DDG has also gotten worse.

I mean, it's a library that implements a language feature. It's surprising it's possible at all, even if really ugly.

The first sentence of your comment was structured like this: [reason to use lead], but [reason to use tungsten]. At least I expected the second sentence to expand on the pros of tungsten, when in fact it was about the pros of lead; interpre

Maybe it was updated, but its's right there under "Length".

Fast Ethernet is better than no Ethernet, and gigabit is unachievable in low-end FPGAs.

We absolutely do fine/convict homeowners if, in a burglary, their improperly secured gun is stolen. The fines aren't for being hacked, they're for not adequately securing user data; ownership of which is a conscious decision.

> A simple example: I search through a list of n items to find item m, iterators typically don't let you break out of the iteration. That'd be a pretty crappy iterator implementation, short-circuiting is basically what iterator

C-style for loops can almost always be replaced with iterators in a more concise manner. No need for the explicit termination check or the explicit advancement expression, that's already handled by the iterator.

This gets posted again and again, and every time I look at it, the code quality is absolutely terrible. Remote access software is by design a complete internet-accessible backdoor to your system, I will never use one that is written as shod
