but their laptops look like premade chinese ones rip
RI had to restart
Aon the website
LYeah I know XD
Atheyre a boutique manufacturer essentially that rolls their own computer cases
Athey sell like 3000-5000 desktops per year
VSystem76 can't make a good distro or good hardware, but they can apparently make a pretty good desktop
Ato business customers
Athats how they make their money
Aengineering firms etc that need linux
Aalso rust is a meme
Afor all the fanfare it gets for being fast
Aend users dont notice and maintainers end up getting shafted building the packages
Aits like node.js on steroids
Krust was invented for a browser and that's exactly where it does best
Kif something is touching untrusted shit on the internet -- I want rust
Arust was invented by javascript devs that wanted to go compiled
Ait even follows the same workflow
Astick a bunch of packages into a folder and pray
AGnome is using web tech right?
Athey even managed to make node_modules even more of a meme
Anode_modules was like 3gb
Kgnome extensions are javascript
Anow prepare for cargo build to be 50gb
LRust have great things though, I love their enums, the type system in general, and how the compiler catches a lot more errors than other languages
Ayeah well if i can run my program instantly and catch the error
Ai suddenly dont care if the compiler does
Ait only matters when it takes 5 minutes to compile
AI've never tried rust before, but it sounds sensible for stuff like drivers and systems programming in general.
Ayeah on paper and then you work with it
Ai had to fork ostree-rs-ext and every single line modification needed 3 minutes to compile
Arechunk docker image takes 5 minutes to build just because of ostree-rs-ext
LWhat if your codebase is 500k lines and implemented a bug on another part of the code without realizing it
AThe asahi team apparently had a good experience with making apple silicon GPU drivers with rust
ABut they did prototype with Python
Arust gcc cant come soon enough
Athat garbage cargo needs to be thrown off a cliff
Awhy
LEven if you change your database structure, libraries like SQLx check all your quieres at compile time
LYou would know what's broken and why without even running the app
Abut i can run the app
Aif the compiler didnt take 10 minutes
Aalso, the rust compiler lags vs code
Aand locks the lock file
Ahow cursed
Ait locks the project and updates the lock file to be able to parse it
Athen half of the definitions dont work
LI use neovim so idk
Hlast time i checked there was 1 that was not clevo but they all could come with coreboot
