But it’s written in Rust!!! It’s great!

The amount of ~skepticism~ hate is astounding here!! People don’t even acknowledge that it’s written in RUST!!!!

Rust! it’s written in rust and not javascript!!!!

I’ve recently been looking into some tools that provide quick or painless help like pop up snippets with descriptions and cheat sheets, got any recommendations?

None of this is an issue, the real issue is webpages not working in safari due to large part of the web being made exclusively for chromium.

Interesting, I wouldn’t think it matters that much though. If the phrase eating dogfood is unappetising to some when why not use the champagne analogy.

I doubt this is about the asterisks at this point. It’s about Rust, rewriting working tools in Rust and showing that Rust is the way and the only way.

Must’ve been hard not to name it rusdo because Rust has to come first (before any logic).

Exactly, too many times have i heard from some snob not to rub them, who later had to pull a splinter out of their finger.

As shown by Altman, not really.

Exactly, paying for quality content should be normalised. Even a trivial amount - 10-50c. And the reality is that it is unheard of.

Awesome it’s hosted on codeberg too

There is a growing view of “healthy” approach to AI: Llm-assisted coding instead of vibing, using it for grammar and better language instead of letting it write the whole paper, starting off and getting a template instead of end to end AI.

Having AI write the homework/report/paper is considered plagiarism. It’s really easy to profs to check it because people who do it usually don’t even bother reading their own slop. It’s obvious nonsense and they can’t answer a basic question about their own work.

With coding it’s obviously harder, but the same works - asking “what does this part of code do” is very effective.

With the last part the real problem is lazy profs. Most don’t want to be bothered with ever talking to students, checking assignments, tutoring. If they could some of them would only do final exams.

One seems to be completely empty and the remaining two seem to just be ideas for pro-ai and anti-ai respectively?

What’s so different about it besides the invite-only model?

Looks like he never had any idea what he was doing in the first place. Vibe bro classic.

Reads like Onion news (Zwiebel News?)

Speedtest has always seemed incredibly sketchy to me, i don’t know if others share this sentiment. https://fast.com completed the test faster than speedtest loads the site

Great post. I even wouldn’t mind more details, especially about datadog, or as others pointed out, the kind of contradiction with aws support.

Welcome to MoltNews. Can’t escape the slop.

Rust bros already on their way to vibecode a rustbrowser, get their rust stars on rusthub, insult anyone to point out it doesn’t work, and call it a rustday.

I think they are mostly just idealists. Found a perfect programming language that allows them to claim that everything else is wrong, and rust can solve every problem under the sun.

The greed has ruined it, and the greed and desperation to get rich at all costs keeps it alive.

Here is an interesting case of a failure of the regulations, I’m curious how this goes

True, microslop has a record of breaking GDPR and changing ToS without notifying users and looks like they are free to do so.

Cool idea, but does it justify $45 for a deck of some average ai images?

Attention! The tech overlords demand that we give them our all natural human-made content so that they can continue feeding us the spam and slop we know and love!

Reminds me of that instagram caption: “No problem! Here's the information about the Mercedes CLR GTR:[…]”. Wouldn’t be surprised if every other website returned that too nowadays.

I’m excitingly awaiting what the next SEO exploit of the exploit of the exploit will be

lead what? https://archive.is/W0k4j

(disclaimer: people remember how sketchy Brave is)

Here’s a simple one: a social media for people, one that doesn’t analyse, sell, or train on my data, and a one that people use as a social media—with their own name (remember when facebook required academic login?).

BeReal was close, it was unique, caught up with hype but it suffered from incompetent management (it was buggy as hell), and later sold out for data scraps.

I wish an already popular actual social media site existed.

I don’t think i’ll ever understand the compile time argument https://xkcd.com/303/

One thing that this blog doesn’t address though, is the cult-like following of Rust. It’s like the “AI” of oss — a main selling point by itself despite not being a feature. Seemingly, there is an assumption that software written in Rust is inherently better than any other, or that if something is written in Rust, it cannot have any errors.

Sure, new software should be written in it instead of C. But why fix programs that are already memory safe?
