For a linux phone

Israel killing civilians does not excuse Hama’s killing civilians.

You still heat your house, maybe even cool it down. You still work, probably for some organisation that pollutes a lot.

And you said it yourself. Consuming less at an individual level doesn’t do shit. Activism does. They’re the ones forcing climate change to be on the agenda.

I’m suggesting building a Rust library and exposing a C ABI. That’s what rsvg does for example.

You’re aware that Rust gives you access to the full C ABI?

What language are you going to use instead that has a better ABI story? Swift? Or maybe a dynamic language like Python?

He says he has had permission. Given that it’s a mostly 1 person project it’s possibly true.

Like sudo that has had zero days lurking for 10 years?

I’m not advocating for reimplementing stuff for no good reason though.

And there are apps that make it very very easy and fun. Check out street complete.

You can contribute them!

There’s a pretty barebones editor in Organic Maps, but you can also check out Street Complete and Every door (more advanced and less user friendly, though insanely efficient)

Zig is a very new and immature language. It won’t be kernel-ready for at l’East another 10 years.

a better syntax

That’s pretty suggestive. Rust syntax is pretty good. Postfix try is just better for example.

Zig also uses special syntax for things like error and nullability instead of having them just be enums, making the language more complex and less flexible for no benefit.

Syntax is also not everything. Rust has extremely good error messages. Going through Zig’s learning documentation, half the error messages are unreadable because I have to scroll to see the actual error and data because it’s on the same line as the absolute path as the file were the error comes from

No hidden memory allocation

That’s a library design question, not a language question. Rust for Linux uses its own data collections that don’t perform hidden memory allocations instead of the ones from the standard library.

it’s more readable

I don’t know, Rust is one of the most readablelangueage for me.

Fast compile time

Is it still the case once you have a very large project and make use of comptime?

it’s simpler to learn

Not true. Because it doesn’t have the guardrails that rust has, you must build a mental model of where the guardrails should be so you don’t make mistakes. Arguably this is something that C maintainers already know how to do, but it’s also not something they do flawlessly from just looking at the bugs that regularly need to be fixed.

Being able to write code faster does not equate being able to write correct code faster.

Really great interop with C

Yes, because it’s basically C with some syntax sugar. Rust is a Generational change.

It is absolue in safe Rust, aka 99% of Rust code.

Norway

That’s not going to happen within the lifetime of the batteries of the trains though.

But even in that case it’s 10x better to have more frequent, cheaper diesel trains than having insanely expensive and heavy battery trains.

Oh, I see what you mean. I thought you meant using your phone as a trackpad sorry

Kde connect has that I think

WhatsApp has MITM on the server side which is how Facebook scans your messages for targeted advert

You shouldn’t make claims like this when there is no evidence for it.

Signal which (unless they changed something with the profiles thing) was always P2P E2E

Signal has never been P2P.

And now you can have it through NAT-PMP on ProtonVON

This is the Olympics. Losing 1% performance because your body is fighting a barely noticeable virus is a problem.
