So the top exports are: medicines and medicines. Got it

I don’t know why you are being so rude. I thought it was the rust community that was known for being toxic?

It’s not my opinion on what the unsafe keyword means. That’s its purpose. Nobody ever wants to write unsafe code on purpose. The unsafe keyword was created to allow safe programs to be created in rust that wouldn’t be accepted by the strict rust compilers.

In a Venn diagram, there are 2 circles: safe programs (1) and programs that are deemed safe by the rust compiler (2).

Circle 2 is smaller than circle 1 and entirely contained inside it. However, there is no reason to not let people write programs from circle 1 that aren’t in circle 2. The unsafe keyword exists to enable programmers to write those programs in rust. However, it comes with a warning, now the programmer is the one responsible for making the program inside circle 1.

A crate having the unsafe keyword doesn’t make the crate unsafe. The unsafe keyword just tells the compiler: “I know that what I’m trying to do may lead to memory safety issues, but I, as the programmer guarantee you that the codeblock as a whole is safe, so turn off some of your checks”.

Using the unsafe keyword in rust is no much different than using a C library in rust.

They are not equivalent situations. More like:

Person A promises to kill 10 people. Person B promises to kill 20 people.

Only one of them will do it, and you choose who. If you refuse to choose, person B will do it. What do you do?

My comment only mentions me and all women. How exactly am I giving cover to men that rape? I raped nobody. The question I’m asking is what I’ve done wrong.

I don’t know what trump and racism has anything to do with this.

So how exactly am I complicit for some dude raping someone? Just because I have a penis? And are all women completely exempt or are all women also complicit?

Even though they are not what people mean when they say “memory-safe”, it is technically a kind of memory safety. It is unsafe to modify non-mutexed/non-atomic memory that another thread might be modifying at the same time.

The windows key is awesome though. It’s basically an “OS key”, since windows is not the only one that can use it, so the OS can have many hotkeys, all of them using the OS key, and it shouldn’t conflict with any program’s hotkeys. If any program uses the OS key for their default hotkey, that’s their problem.

Windows 11 is little more than a reskin of windows 10, and they still fucked it up.

Rounded corners are mandatory (Why? I really preferred squared ones). But developers can choose to have their windows square. Why only the developers? Let the user decide how a windows looks like!

And don’t get me started on the start menu. It was a complete massacre. Tiles are gone (am I the only one that liked them?). Instead, now we pin apps to the start menu. Fine I guess, except for the fact that half of the fucking menu is taken up by fucking recomendations. If I remove every single recommendation, instead of having my space back for more pinned programs I get this message: “oh you like this precious white space? If you turned on some recommendations it would show something”. No, i don’t want recommendations, I want my start menu space back. Which btw in windows 10 used to be resizable to whatever size I wanted.

Oh and lets not forget about the volume mixer. Which some genius decided that it was better to keep it 10 clicks away from the user in the settings, instead of conveniently at one click in the taskbar. Which they also made the sound settings their own special taskbar element, instead of another taskbar program. So now if I want to replace their shitty sound settings with the ones I like (trumpet btw), now I would have 2 sound settings in the taskbar, while in win10 I only had 1.

And whose Idea was to join the sound settings and internet settings in the same taskbar button visually? Which is also not the same button functionally. You see, if you press the left side of the button it opens the sound settings, but the right side opens the internet settings. How much do Microsoft UI people get paid?

I guess we got dark notepad, that’s nice.

Logistical problems are still financial problems though. That’s my point. Hire enough people/develop the appropriate automation and the issue is no more.

We have the technology to solve this, the problem is the money.

In fact, you could just buy enough batteries and the problem will also go away. Still a financial problem, not a technology one.

EDIT: just to clarify, if at some point energy prices go negative, it means that it is cheaper to buy energy usage than a solution. Unless the energy company is dumb enough to just lose money for the lazyness of considering other options.

It should be illegal for companies with a legal budget over X€ to have illegal clauses on their terms and conditions.

It is a financial problem. Technically you can just cover the solar panels. But that’s not good financially.

To be fair abortion is not risk-free and side-effectless. It’s much preferable to encourage the use of contraceptives in those situations.

What’s up with all these posts lately talking as if C was the chain breaker that will let you achieve a higher spiritual level for your soul or some shit. This is at least the second I’ve seen this week.

It’s a programming language. If you want to use it, use it. There is no illuminati pulling in the strings to prevent you from learning this holy language.

That being said, like all programming languages, it’s a tool, with its upsides and downsides. Depending on the project it might be the best choice or the worst. But with the advancement in language design, there’s very little upsides compared to more modern languages, taking into account its big downsides.

It’s a one line function in an example. It’s a getter.

Considering how politically active he is, he might become a politician (even running for president?). A lot of people will care about this if suddenly Elon musk appears in American ballots.

EDIT: I just remembered that Elon cannot run for USA president. But idk if other political positions are open.

And seeing how trump can break every law, I don’t see what would prevent Elon from running for president.

Lmao, and they say dynamic typing is supposed to speed up the developer.

This is literally a getter function. How is a getter awful code? It’s the simplest function there is. The only function simpler than that is returning the input itself.

Python doesn’t check the types of function headers though. They’re only hints for the programmer.

The lava lamps are not true random though. For something to be truly random, it must be non-deterministic (no seed at all). The only way for a computer to accomplish this is to read from a source of true randomness in nature. The lava lamps are random enough, but not truly random.

At the moment, the only source thought of being non-deterministic is quantum mechanics.

So if you make a computer generate random numbers out of the randomness of quantum mechanics, you would have truly random numbers.
