Moving from C to C++ would also not solve any real problem. C++ of course adds OOP which I think can be nice (not everyone agrees with this!) but it also adds an insane amount of language complexity and instability. Mentally reasoning about C code is hard, reasoning about C++ code is nearly impossible.
Rust however brings a novel solution to classes of problems like ownership and mutability with the borrow checker. It’s now accepted to be a great tool for writing high performance code while preventing a substantial amount of common, but often subtle, bugs from slipping through. It’s not arbitrarily the first non-C code to be accepted in the kernel. And it’s used in other operating systems like Android and Windows already.

The continued existence of police forces in the US depends on their role as protector of the wealthy. They know they must perform their duty or risk losing the protection of their patrons.


Companies use the same kind of systems to (poorly) automate the search for candidates, which is also spammy, inefficient, and wastes job-seekers time. This just levels the playing field.


It’s surprisingly calming to listen to Patrick cathartically vent, after what must’ve been a stressful education and career in finance.


Keep Lemmy small. Make the influence of conversation here uninteresting.
I’m doing my part!


It’s basically corporate anti-virus software. Intended to detect and prevent malware.


$2 billion, that’s 4 whole days of profits for them.
