For a linux phone

The proton drive app does not have a way to automatically sync a specific directory. It’s so infuriating, because they already have this implemented for the pictures.

And? As long as everyone was consenting why should we give a fuck?

Maybe I’m just too french.

Israel killing civilians does not excuse Hama’s killing civilians.

Voting by itself doesn’t do shit. Organizing and convincing people to vote based on an issue does.

You still heat your house, maybe even cool it down. You still work, probably for some organisation that pollutes a lot.

And you said it yourself. Consuming less at an individual level doesn’t do shit. Activism does. They’re the ones forcing climate change to be on the agenda.

Voting isn’t going to do shit.

Get involved. Protest. Refuse to work for terrible companies. Convince the people around you to protest and vote.

I’m suggesting building a Rust library and exposing a C ABI. That’s what rsvg does for example.

You’re aware that Rust gives you access to the full C ABI?

What language are you going to use instead that has a better ABI story? Swift? Or maybe a dynamic language like Python?

He says he has had permission. Given that it’s a mostly 1 person project it’s possibly true.

It does, but it’s not really meant to. Ito add new businesses, use everydoor.

Like sudo that has had zero days lurking for 10 years?

I’m not advocating for reimplementing stuff for no good reason though.

Everydoor is a great android app for quickly contributing POIs based on standard presets. It’s very efficient

If you want to be the absolute most efficient for POIs, check out everydoor. It’s not very user friendly but it’s pretty much peek efficiency, and it has support for saving info that other apps don’t offer you.

And there are apps that make it very very easy and fun. Check out street complete.

You can contribute them!

There’s a pretty barebones editor in Organic Maps, but you can also check out Street Complete and Every door (more advanced and less user friendly, though insanely efficient)

Zig is a very new and immature language. It won’t be kernel-ready for at l’East another 10 years.

a better syntax

That’s pretty suggestive. Rust syntax is pretty good. Postfix try is just better for example.

Zig also uses special syntax for things like error and nullability instead of having them just be enums, making the language more complex and less flexible for no benefit.

Syntax is also not everything. Rust has extremely good error messages. Going through Zig’s learning documentation, half the error messages are unreadable because I have to scroll to see the actual error and data because it’s on the same line as the absolute path as the file were the error comes from

No hidden memory allocation

That’s a library design question, not a language question. Rust for Linux uses its own data collections that don’t perform hidden memory allocations instead of the ones from the standard library.

it’s more readable

I don’t know, Rust is one of the most readablelangueage for me.

Fast compile time

Is it still the case once you have a very large project and make use of comptime?

it’s simpler to learn

Not true. Because it doesn’t have the guardrails that rust has, you must build a mental model of where the guardrails should be so you don’t make mistakes. Arguably this is something that C maintainers already know how to do, but it’s also not something they do flawlessly from just looking at the bugs that regularly need to be fixed.

Being able to write code faster does not equate being able to write correct code faster.

Really great interop with C

Yes, because it’s basically C with some syntax sugar. Rust is a Generational change.

It is absolue in safe Rust, aka 99% of Rust code.

Because voting has very limited choice and a winner takes all mechanism. Ob-fucking-viously the candidates should be better, but not voting won’t make that change. Trump elected will just make this worse.

Voting is harm reduction.

If you want to make things better and promote your own idealised society, get involved, donate to causes you consider to be up to your standards. But even then getting involved and convincing future candidates will be much harder if Trump is elected than if it’s Harris.
