Exactly! That’s how I feel.

I always end up using VS Code for projects like that, but I don’t love its Got integration, so that really makes sense. I might give this a try when it’s more widely available.

Call me an elitist, but I think people really need to learn and use Git on the command line. It's integral to the job and visual clients hide away not just the nitty-gritty, but often basic processes. Why do I end up teaching experienced developers how to use git reset? There's some day-to-day stuff thaat I do like to do on the IDE though.

[hops off soapbox]

Ranting aside, JetBrains' visuals and organization for Git are really good. Visaual Studio loses track of commits across forks and time, but Rider can keep up, so I'm sure a standalone client will work pretty well.

So how are you liking it?

I came here to laugh, not to cry!

[clicks light switch off and on repeatedly]

Welp, I guess we’re closed for the week.

I’d say I feel seen, but it’s really dark in here.

let a = String::from(“Hello, world!”).into()

I’ll see myself out.

Common criticisms here would be that these endeavors stifle creativity and show the adoption of modern solutions. That said, I find conducting “code archeology” to figure out the idiomatic way of doing something in an old project very rewarding. Because computer programs exist in people’s mind’s, doing that with the support of original developers or subject matter experts is some of the most effective knowledge transfer I’ve ever witnessed.

My take on a summary: like C/C++, Rust can be relevant in a variety of use-cases and one could conceivably build a long-term career on it, while adjusting to market/technology interests.

Seems like a reasonable prediction?

Industrial controls equipment made by German companies can be programmed in English or German. You can also switch languages (German/English) at any time and the IDE switches over all the keywords.

Shared with my favorite blind iOS dev. Should be a good laugh!

This is super interesting. I’ll admit I wasn’t even aware of this effort. Even real-time usage of Windows relies on a parallel kernel.

This sounds like it’ll create a lot of cool opportunities and reduce friction.

Just learning. I threw together a little CRUD API in Rocket the other day.

Now I’m playing around with Diesel. I don’t love the intermediate New types, coming from EF Core. Is that because Rust ~~~~doesn’t really have constructors?
