I expect Rust to be inevitable in embedded development, but yeah, that space moves slow, so give it another ten years or so. I will say that embedded is practically jumping on Rust, compared to how glacially it normally moves. You’ve got big vendors committing to offering Rust APIs, because many of their customers just don’t want to code C/C++ anymore.
There’s no real mobile app for it, is kind of my personal main reason why I didn’t pick it up…
Fine, sure, but to pretend that a language from half a century ago is the be-all and end-all of human wisdom, is ridiculous. The field is progressing, so on average newer languages improve compared to old ones.
Hmm, I don’t know anything about Whoogle, but from other privacy-conscious search engines, I would expect it to work when you use that URL in your bookmark.
Three things I can imagine:
If you’ve got specific accounts you want to follow, you can get an RSS feed containing their public posts.
In terms of native clients, the closest such feature I know of, is that Fedilab (for Android) can remember your position in the timeline, so that you can resume reading.
If you primarily use one timeline, then you wouldn’t re-encounter already read posts, because they’re in the past from the remembered position.
I have to say, though, that it’s not the most reliable feature in the world…
I don’t know, if there’s any hosted instances of it, or how mature it is, but one of the Lemmy devs has experimented with using the frontend of phpBB (basically the software for old-school forums) with a Lemmy backend: !lemmybb@lemmy.ml
To my knowledge, they had some pretty quick successes with it and one might be able to just slap this onto a server right now…
I’m rather guessing the other way around. Because they can’t directly extract money from this, they can’t justify to their shareholders to sit down full-time devs. Instead, this is a project solely run by interns and student.
I’m assuming, this is what OP is using: https://docs.linuxserver.io/images/docker-firefox/
Agile tries to solve this differently.
First and foremost, it puts you into tight-knit communication with your team and the customers, so just ask if anyone remembers why it is like that.
If no one does, then Agile enables to basically fuck around and find out.
Which is to say, change it to how you think it’s supposed to be and see if anything breaks / anyone complains. If that happens, Agile allows you to react quickly, i.e. to change it back and quickly release a fixed version.
But yeah, as the others said, if your team feels like documents work better for them, then do Agile and documents. That’s why retrospectives are an integral part of Agile, because it’s not a perfect plan how to work together. You’ll know best what works in your context.
I believe, people are mostly annoyed that Bluesky started yet another (half-baked) standard, rather than throwing their weight behind ActivityPub.
This would be fine, if they were decidedly a for-profit company, but their whole branding is that they want to benefit humanity.
It’s also weird that the former CEO of Twitter is involved.
The guy could have pushed Twitter into that direction, but apparently, he needed a separate project to have this change of heart.
Like, I don’t know, they’ve got some things that look alright:
But yeah, I’m still worried, it ends up being a bait-and-switch. Make it all look good for now and once enough users have signed up, slowly transition to just becoming yet another Twitter.
What I could theoretically imagine, is that an extension could give it a custom URL scheme, like mastodon://mastodon.social/v1/..., and then the various Mastodon apps could register an intent/open handler for that. But yeah, again, quite a bit of effort.
Alternatively, the apps could offer a secondary Share-action, which tries to open the link instead of creating a post from it…
As has been said, this is not easily possible, but a workaround in Fedilab is to copy the link and paste it into the search bar inside the app. So, not super convenient, but at least you’ll be logged in and can interact with the post. This might also work with the other apps, I’m not sure…
Yeah, you would have to maintain a list of all Mastodon instance domain names, and Google requires this list to be baked in at build time of the app, so updating it requires updating the whole app and there’s no way to dynamically detect that this link is a Mastodon link.
This isn’t to say that it can’t be done, Newpipe does this for Invidious/Piped instances, but yeah, it’s a good bit of work…
Once you’re happy with your own implementation, you may be interested in this rather rustic implementation I created a little while ago: https://codeberg.org/trem/erastothenes-iter/src/branch/master/src/lib.rs
It’s actually just an iterator for primes, but building a function around it which checks whether a given number is prime shouldn’t be difficult.
It’s probably quite overwhelming, but you don’t have to learn all these concepts all at once. I started out much like you and then learnt many of the nuances hidden in there over the course of multiple years. It’s fine, if it doesn’t look all idiomatic from the start. Just as a bit of a pre-taste where your journey might lead. 🙃
I’m not sure, I understand the question, because there’s tons of languages that are basically just a superset of another, such as C++ for C, TypeScript for JavaScript, Crystal for Ruby. Heck, the whole family of LISP languages kind of matches your question, because they all use most of the syntax of LISP.
