Haha, perfect 😄
Would you mind opening a PR to fix that typo? Would be useful for others as well!
Or a CLI with clap.
Curious what you are talking about. Multi-threaded sharing of memory for example is also easy with rust, it just doesn't let you wrote and read at the same time, and so on.
Yeah. Once you get used to the (verbose, but by no means unergonomic!) syntax, you'll probably never be happy with another language again. Job-wise, I am currently mostly using Go, and while also a nice language, I miss the confidence and security I took for granted with rust.
Not to mention just how goddamn expressive rust can be. Let bindings like if ok/err, else return? Assign from a match on Some(Ok(x))? Filter, map, and friends on any iterator? Oh my GOD the error handling with the question mark iterator? 100% confidence that if it compiles, no error, possible null value, or case is unhandled.
And all this WHILE giving you the amazing security benefits!
Ah, damn, caught me proselytizing again.
- if your skill is so great that you would never cause the kinds of bugs the rust compiler is designed to prevent, then it will never keep you from compiling, and therefore your complaint is unnecessary and you can happily use rust
- if you do encounter these error messages, then you are apparently not skilled enough to not use rust, and should use rust
In summary: use rust.
Nice, that's great to hear!
Viel Spaß! War im Mai 3 Wochen dort, absolut begeistert, jetzt wird fleißig Japanisch gelernt 😄
Ah, too bad! But thanks, that's good to know.
Not gonna lie, I'm a tiny bit jealous of you 😄 It's gotten to a point where having to use Android is a constant, low-intensity source of stress just because of how closed and privacy-unfriendly it has become.
Thanks, that is a very kind offer!
The secific app is xdrip+. But it's probably not possible to test it out, because starting/working is not the issue, the issue is making sure that it has a 100%% stable background connection with my blood glucose sensor, recovers from failures, restarts in the background on closure,... Eventually, I'll get my hands on a linux handheld and try for myself :)
That being said - how's your experience with Sailfish been so far?
ChatControl is back on the table here in Europe AGAIN (you've probably heard), with mandatory age checking sprinkled on to as a treat.
I honestly feel physically ill at this point. Like a constant, unignorable digital angst eating away at my sanity. I don't want any part in this shit anymore.
