At least he is to stand trial, in other countries they are just elected again and given a second attempt at the coup.

Ahhh... Sorry, of course there was the 2021 edition in between.... Ignore me... 🤣

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

That refers to the Edition, and all development up to January 2024 (rust 1.84) was edition 2018. With rust 1.85, Edition 2024 came out. Here is the news in Rust Edition 2024 https://doc.rust-lang.org/edition-guide/rust-2024/index.html , mostly details, so for effective rust everything for Rust 2018 should still be relevant.

Hey, there is a long tradition of banning evil math... even Pythagoras did it... But, I guess he at least had good reasons, irrational numbers are super creepy and deserved to be banned.

So let me be very clear: if you as a maintainer feel that you control who or what can use your code, YOU ARE WRONG.

Yes, but then you wouldn't find the comment section there to read all the insightful comments.... /s

The response by Greg KH is also well worth reading:

The phoronix title is a bit click bait, but the LKML thread that is linked in the article is worth reading.

Seems like Jiff got some performance optimizations in c/[email protected]

And yes, date time handling is one of the most confusing areas on computer science. https://xkcd.com/2867/

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

I personally think Jiff is based on a very solid design, as it is inspired by Temporal, which is a TC39 proposal to improve datetime handling in JavaScript. I have done some date time handling with chrono, but I find jiff much easier to work with. So, I can recommend you take a serious look, and see if it makes your life easier for your use case. Now, it is only version 0.2, so the API might change before 1.0, but it seems to respect semver, so there shouldn't be any surprise breakage at least.

It seems like @[email protected] have added some optimizations to the Jiff date time library... so now it should generally be faster than 'chrono' and 'time'. Jiff is quite impressive, the 0.2.1 version number really doen't reflect its quality.

Jiff 0.2.0 is released (github.com)
 

Jiff is a datetime library for Rust that encourages you to jump into the pit of success. The focus of this library is providing high level datetime primitives that are difficult to misuse and have reasonable performance.

And as a user of Jiff, I must say that it is very nice to use. Well thought out API, making date time handling less of a pain. So, nice work @[email protected]

wake-up call in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (2 children)

When I was in my 20:ies, I had my alarm clock at the other side of the room and still managed to oversleep. I ended up having it under my bed close to the wall, so I had to crawl in under my bed (quite narrow space) pressing my body to the cold floor to turn off the alarm... and I never managed to turn that off in my sleep. But I would have preferred a wake up call... so, even though I have never used the service when staying at a hotel, I can see why some people use it.

I think this would be a nice improvement to reduce boiler plate.

Minecraft Mod written in Rust (github.com)
 

fjärrinlägg från: https://lemmy.world/post/22673996

This mod is written in an unconventional way: it is written in Rust. The Rust code is here. It uses JNI and JVMTI to interact with Java objects. The only Java code in this mod is for loading the compiled native binary into memory.
