Is it me or devrant is slow as fuck?

Guess who burnt their ENTIRE face today while skiing? Thats right I'm a tomato now!

Anything with the phrase "Here are some examples:" on its own line reeks of AI. And bolded paragraph starts.

No further comments.

The industry should stop demanding too short time frames to learn new skills.

Sometimes it takes a full year of near-fulltime study to be strongly competent in it and it definitely doesn't take just a week.

I miss when software was written by programmers and not ideologues. I don't care what you believe, even if I believe it too. I just want tools that work.

I realized that I am old enough now that the first answer to "name a toy adults use in the bedroom" that comes to mind is: Kindle

I can't believe how hard public transport is designed for cucks in the Netherlands. I've just paid 28,- euro for a retour to next city. Do you have any idea how much you could drive for that? Fuckers. Public transport is really not a solution in NL. Fuck, I'm mad.

I always felt a bit bad for scammers. That your life must suck so hard that you screw over people. But now i watched them working on YouTube and i don't feel bad for them at all anymore. First of all, trash people, the lowest of the lowest. Second - they show no mercy to their victims. And that shouting and stuff. Is that normal in India? If you do that to a Dutch, it won't engage a phone call with you at all. They start the phone calls in a fucked up way already.

Trash people.

you don't say....

No more CRUD

I have the urge to write a torrent lib in Rust but I really have other priorities to take care of…

I opened devRant today and saw ostream call b2plane a "Manslut".

now I can't tell what's real or not real.

Scrum is like low-management, similar to low-code.

With low-code, we say our programmers are not very good. So the less they program, the better. With low-management, we say that our managers are not capable of managing people, so the less they manage, the better.

The spammers are going hardcore.

They upvoted their downvoted rants. They did it automated probably, because the rants were not visible on the site anymore.
I downvoted some with the anti-spam bots but they seem to be ip-blocked for downvoting or something. They don't work anymore. Maybe I need a proxy or something..

It sucks, they have such an advantage. Upvoting is easy and unlimited.

Do some charity, downvote:

The fact that Trump was elected U.S. president not once, but twice, is the ultimate proof that many American voters are as daft and gullible as I suspected. To those who voted for Trump: What were you thinking, if at all, by putting the worst bullies in charge? "Make America Great Again", Trump says. More like "Make America Go Down the Drain." I couldn't care less, if it weren't for the U.S. dragging the rest of the world down with it.

These Wounds, They Will Not Heal.

Was over at some friends last night. Their 3 year old was playing with a toy that I 3D printed for her first birthday.

Good feeling, day made

Retoor's recent bot army fiasco is why we don't put AI in charge of anything. It wasn't a bug in her code, it was her AI misinterpreting her prompts while having access to the data bots act upon. Essentially, retoor's AI added a lot of legitimate users to the list of spammers, and the issue was in prompting, not in code.

@12bitfloat Serious debate on Rust vs C here are my arguments; C has :

1. Better Syntax
2. Betetr Performance (Compile and runtime)
3. Direct Hardware Access (No strict rules)
4. Lots of codebases use `unsafe` in rs
5. No Borrow Checker Frustrations
6. Established Ecosystem
7. More Control Over Memory
8. Easier to Port & Embed
9. No Heavy Standard Library
10. EASY Manual memory management (that's a pro)
11. Optimal inline assembly
12. Memory-mapped I/O (simpler pointer math)
13. No fat pointers ( slices)
14. Better control over ABI
15. Lighter executables
16. Simple linking (no cargo)
17. Cargo forces u to use GitHub
18. More compiler choices (GCC, Clang, TinyCC, MSVC, ICC, etc)
19. More debugging tools (GDB, Valgrind)
20. Cross-compilation is easier (and there's Zig support)
21. Easier to distribute AND RUN ON WINDOWS
22. Better for baremetal (Rust needs a custom runtime for truly bare-metal execution)
23. Compatible with legacy systems (Rust is too heavy to support some old architectures)
24. Better for microcontroller (no_std/std)
25. Supports every OS(sunOS, solaris, obscure BSDs)
26. No forced updates (cargo updates takes a year and installs I36579+E package)
27. Less strict versioning (new standard broke my old code)
28. Less restrictive aliasing
29. Flexible pointer types (ever heard of Box<T>)
30. No unwarranted type safety (Sometimes you just need a void*)
31. C99 flexible arrays
32. Anonymous structs/unions (less boilerplate than enums)
33. C macros are simpler (please help me rusts' require a mini language at this point)
34. No strict mutability rules
35. Better for hacking/debugging (poke around memory)
36. Better C++ interop (C++ sucks)
37. More lib-friendly (almosts every lib has C bindings)
38. Can use void pointers (void*)
39. Better for writing shared libraries (Rust’s dynamic linking is more complex)
40. No automatic drop semantics (Rust’s Drop trait can introduce performance issues)
41. No forced monomorphization that causes binary bloat
42. Better for real-time applications (No automatic memory management surprises)

MENTION : I'm not clashing or anything, not against the person I'd like to debate with, @12bitfloat, but against the argument (RUST>C)
It's not a war
