cool article
which makes me wonder why there are people who still avoid systemd. i get that alpine can't use glibc, but what about everyone else? i just see vague statements about systemd being "too big" or going "against unix philosophy", but never concrete disadvantages of systemd compared to other pid-1s
edit: also, i wonder how viable would it be to port systemd to musl or whatever alpine uses so that they can take advantage of it

we all have our most wanted missing features but if i'm being honest i don't see how session saving should take priority over e.g. rendering protocols

i think i know what happened: the text looks different depending on the client/interface. i first read it on thunder and it looked fine, but i'm now on lemmy web using the vanilla theme and it looks like this:
amazing answer, thank you
rust is a systems/low overhead programming language. really not much of a point comparing js/ts and rust, since js is much higher level. you should be comparing it with c, c++, zig, maybe nim, etc
you also imply it's pointless to have a language geared towards performance because computers are better now, but 1) programs run on more than just personal computers and you wouldn't run js in an embedded system and 2) just because your computer can put up with poor performance and resource waste doesn't mean that it's sensible to do so (hello electron)
also, rust does more than just cosmetic improvements. it adds a layer of statically guaranteed memory safety that no other commercially viable programming language that i know of has. even if its syntax looked like ancient eldritch runes, it would still be an attractive language. the fact that it manages to do more than other languages while still having a decent syntax is amazing
you can dislike rust if you want that's fine but you don't need to try to shit on it just bc it's not your cup of tea
sorted by controversial and found this post. why? this is amazing
