The const improvements are fantastic. Keep up the good work!

lmao what book is this?

Looks like the kidnapper also stole the null terminator for this string!

Doesn’t stop your manager from requiring support for the other 4%.

You make it sound like this doesn’t happen frequently.

Any context on him “trashing his reputation”?

The tools will be fairly specific to the game you’re hacking. For example, a lot of tools exist for GBA Pokemon games, but something like porymap won’t work for another game.

So, the argument was that there was absolutely no way whatsoever that one could figure out they needed to depend on mio for a good event loop interface. It was totally an insurmountable task!

You still see this same mindset now with people making things like blessed.rs. It’s the same idea, just not wrapped into a library. I find it hilarious when it gets shared in discussions and some people go “oh wow so helpful!”, as if we all couldn’t have found serde and rand on crates.io without it.

Honestly, you ever tried to look back through a long thread on Discord? It’s impossible. If you want to read the original message that started the thread, good luck, you’ll be scrolling all day and may never get there. How anyone can claim that’s “easy to use” is beyond me.

Discord works for quick discussions happening right now, and that’s it.

I used to work at a company that held to the concept of “don’t be a hero.” Basically, if you were having to step up, work overtime, and always go out of your normal routine to “fix” stuff, then you’re actually enabling bad processes.

I think the same concept applies here. If you can’t let any code be submitted without personally reviewing it, then there is something wrong with either the review system, the onboarding system for new devs, or the continuous integration system that should be catching mistakes. Same goes for triaging: if no one is triaging because it’s too exhausting and leads to burnout, then some other system may need to be devised for handling outstanding issues.

Obviously this is much harder to deal with in an organization where most contributors are volunteers. But if we want the project to survive and not be taken over by corporations who can afford to pay people to deal with this stuff full time, I think it should be addressed in a different way.

Don’t forget to upload them all to crates.io. Add them to the list of useless crates that no one will ever use.

I’m curious to see whether this survey shows that the amount of jobs programming Rust has increased.

I don’t really get why we need social media elements in GitHub at all

First 1/3rd is a bit of fluff but after that, good article.

Ah yes, the Wadsworth constant.

That’s actually what the comment above was suggesting, which is why I was wondering why you couldn’t get it to work. Glad you got it working!

Can you show us your code for when you tried this suggestion?

What does “FE” stand for in this context? Sorry if it’s obvious, I just don’t see anywhere that it’s actually written out.

I sure hope this is not how most CS courses are being taught

You gonna do Rust again?
