I really believe the future is going to be Zig + Rust. They both have very promising futures. Production and safety critical software will benefit from Rusts increased memory safety and Zig will be great for bleeding edge performance and drop-in C replacement.
Interesting comment on the Mac. At my workplace we can choose between Mac or Windows (no Linux option unfortunately, my personal computer runs Debian). Pretty much all the principle and senior devs go for Mac, install vim, and live in the command line, and I do the same. All the windows people seem over reliant on VSCode, AI apps, and a bunch of other apps Unix people just have cli aliases for and vim shortcuts. I had to get a loaner laptop from work for a week and it was windows. Tried using powershell and installing some other CLI tools and after the first day just shut the laptop and didn’t work until I got back from travel and started using my Mac again.
I was going to say this. I hate Java as much as the next dev, but everything runs on Java. If it’s web -> Spring, DevOps -> Jenkins, Event Streams -> Kafka, Big Data -> Spark, Logging & SRE -> Flink. All of these are built on JVM based languages. I am fortunate enough to program Rust daily at my job, but my options for getting another Rust job are severely limited. Everybody always wants Java or Go. They always ask for C++ , but I’m convinced that day 1 they would have you switch to Java.
That’s what I was thinking. You have to submit a request to read the document that wants to violate your privacy, it’s almost like some things are worth keeping private, but certainly not legislation violating that privacy.
Why would God allow this to happen?
I’ve never heard soft but I’ve heard hypocritical. Tom morello comes from a wealthy background and went to Harvard, the band censored themselves on tv when asked to do so, they live in gated communities and run elbows with the people who run the machine they are raging against, and they came out and supported Hillary Clinton (who is the definition of the machine). Myself and others aren’t saying they should’ve supported trump (who is also apart of the machine), but they should have called for more grassroots political candidates and supported them.
Cloudflare, Discord, and AWS lambda run on Rust
Also, I pay for 4k streaming but because of compression or something else they are definitely not sending me 4k content. I was watching a movie on Netflix that I had forgot I pirated. Both were 4K but the quality of the pirated one was far superior.
Did they try retracing their steps?
Where is the slide for spending hundreds of hours refactoring everything to Rust to cut my companies compute cost by 50% (it was only $283/month)
It’s only worth its contracts at this point and those are negligible. The space industry is starting to boom with innovative new startups and launch services getting cheaper with reusable rockets. Boeing already has a storied legacy as well as a foothold in the industry and they still managed to fuck it up. Absolutely worse than morning leadership to not be able to capitalize on what they already have.
It’s like if Google decided to sell off the AI portion of their business.
