C# is good too. If you havent heard of lobster you should look into it.

Rust is esperanto because its only actually used by a small group of nerds,

python is russian because everything made in it is unreliable.

Gotta be mm to make sense unfortunately, Linux-GUN 7.62.11

Easy, GNU->GUN

Oh and try blocks.

Its mainly a matter of stabilizing existing features in the language - there are rust modules in the linux kernel as of 6.1 but they have to be compiled with the nightly compiler.

Rust is a very slow moving , get it right the first time esque, project. Important and relatively fundamental stuff is currently and has been useable and 99% unchanging for years but hasnt been included in the mainline compiler.

Also certain libraries would be fantastic to have integrated into the standard library, like tokio, anyhow, thiserror, crossbeam, rayon, and serde. If that ever happens though itll be in like a decade.

For what its worth browsing directories full of hundreds to thousands of 4k images with previews is seamless : )

grub menu. all my timeshift snapshots show up there. for /home i just backup to a usb with deja dup.

Btrfs snapshots have saved my ass a few times with bad updates.

how fast is it?

definitely not lol. Its my daily driver pc. I just have a spare drive and an empty slot.

its neat, u can get 4k 240hz out of the usb4 output. Lm sensors didnt pick up the cpu temps. It’s VERY quiet, and the drives have an active heat sink on em. The nvme drive runs at around 40C.

so to briefly answer the question in the title after reading the article : i dunno maybe prepared statements

Windows is as much to blame as any affected languages tbh.

For what its worth , the cache locality of Vec<Box<Dyn trait>> is terrible in general, i feel like if youre iterating over a large array of things and applying a polymorphic function you’re making a mistake.

Cache locality isnt a problem when youre only accessing something once though.

So imo polymorphism has its place for non iterative-compute type work, ie web server handler functions and event driven systems.

so if (somehow) the accumulator was an integer, this loop would autovectorize and the performance differences would be smaller ?

also nvme drives get HOT, and sticking em together in an enclosure with no heatsink or fan would probably have thermal throttle under load.

My experince :

Tbh motherboard matters. Updating my msi motherboard actually fixed a major issue for me preventing grub from letting me select what OS to load on boot.

I installed linux mint and did have to do a bit of tinkering to get my audio to work from the front panel too. Found answers in the mint forums.

Other than that my discord streams have no audio and discords screen capture daemon or whatever keeps the computer from shutting down for like a minute after i try to.

Those are the only issues Ive had though.

As for lack of features, no HDR sucks, but other than that I’m good.

Warpinator is nice for syncing files with my phone.

Also enjoying the simpler feel compared to windows, and no ads.

SteamOS is debian based right? does that mean LMDE will benefit from valve’s commits in some ways mint wouldnt have otherwise?

Haskell, because nobody knows haskell
