@lupyuen because rust is the right tool for the job of building a UI *platform* but these projects are all about trying to make it "nice" to build UI apps in Rust, which is just never going to be nice. Nice APIs for application developers require a completely different set of tradeoffs than the ones underpinning Rust.

Hey, Twitter-dwellers, let's make an experiment!

Block Elon Musk and see if you'll get banned for it - or...
If it has no effect :D

Me first!

I cannot recommend enough disabling endless scroll wherever you can.

Endless scroll is an attention trap, our brains are not dealing with it very well, and it should be illegal not to offer to a paginated alternative.

Both my employers went for "e-mail in the cloud" and have fallen for Microsoft's Office 365 solution. Academic institutions used to be at the forefront of internet technology, pioneers in adopting e-mail. I feel now they're contributing to its demise by ever-greater centralisation. Read my frustrations in my new blog post "Rant against centralising e-mail in big-tech silos": https://proycon.anaproy.nl/posts/rant-against-centralising-e-mail/

Got this beautiful Vlak 1 lamp from @krekr. It's made from a single piece of aluminium PCB with a matte black solder mask 😍 Check it out at www.vlak-light.nl

Amazingly nuts. It'd be believable if it were -O3 or something but getting the result with -O1 is terrifying. That's clang for you!

I do wish it would hurry up.

@Paygan Surströmming didn't even make the list???

What's the difference between USA and USB?

One connects to your computer and accesses all your data, and the other is an IT industry standard.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as Mastodon social network, is in fact, the Fediverse. Mastodon is not a social network unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning network made useful by ActivityPub, WebFinger, NodeInfo, and vital network components comprising a full SNS as defined by standards, done by the W3C and the IETF.
Many computer users run a modified version of the Fediverse social network every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the implementations of Fediverse which is widely used today is often called “Mastodon”, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the Fediverse. There really is a Mastodon, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the network they use.

Do your duty.
