Benchmarks mean nothing.

You're free to suggest another method of comparing the two languages' performance. This is the best we're have, and Rust wins in every single benchmark shown there.

These aren’t the results of code written by an average programmer.

Citation needed.

I like Rust and all but we do need to admit it doesn’t magically solve all our problems.

I never said it did. I simply pointed out that it's demonstrably faster than Swift.

If it's "barely a problem in practice" why did you bother to mention it like it's an active performance issue?

It was created to part fools with their money. It isn't that this post is a scam; it's that crypto as a whole is.

This post is so full of inaccuracies that I don't know where to begin. I'll just mention the first thing I noticed: just because drivers are compiled with the kernel doesn't mean they're all loaded at runtime. modprobe exists for a reason.

Nobody who packages debs are updating their applications for jammy anymore. Anything I install is several versions old at this point. Just the other day I tried to compile an application that uses Autocxx, only to find that it requires C++14 headers, and the jammy repo only had up to 12 or 13. I know I can add PPAs or get things other ways, but it kind of defeats the point of a package manager if I'm constantly hunting for things outside of it.

I'm looking forward to Cosmic, but I'm curious if it will delay the 24.04 LTS release. 22.04 is pretty long in the tooth at this point.

Try Sidebery instead.

Show me a standard that was destroyed by EEE and I'll show you a standard that never took off in the first place.

XMPP says hi.

EAC works in Proton, as long as the developer takes the time to configure it right.

This is making perfect the enemy of good. What's actually going to happen is people are going to use "password123" because they can remember it.
