  • No, no, no. It's the end of times. I can hear the trumpets of the apocalypse.

    Now Valve needs to release half life 3 and the world as we know it will truly perish.

    Jokes aside. I hope this means work on a UI overhaul can seriously begin.

  • The only way to make Rust segfault is by performing unsafe operations.

    Challange accepted. The following Rust code technically segfaults:

     
        
fn stackover(a : i64) -> i64 {
    return stackover(a);
}


fn main() {
    println!("{}", stackover(100));
}

    A stack overflow is technically a segmentation violation. At least on linux the program recives the SIGSEGV signal. This compiles and I am no rust dev but this does not use unsafe code, right?

    While the compiler shows a warning, the error message the program prints when run is not very helpfull IMHO:

     
        
thread 'main' has overflowed its stack
fatal runtime error: stack overflow
[1]    45211 IOT instruction (core dumped)  ../target/debug/rust

    Edit: Even the compiler warning can be tricked by making it do recusion in pairs:

     
        
fn stackover_a(a : i64) -> i64 {
    return stackover_b(a);
}

fn stackover_b(a : i64) -> i64 {
    return stackover_a(a);
}

fn main() {
    println!("{}", stackover_a(100));
}

  • Yes, this maximal decentralized usage where everybody has their own copy but can collaborate and pick and choose from other copies was a central idea in the creation of git. Ultimately it was made for Linux Kernel development and that is how that works over there.

    You do not even need to use git specific protocols. One can simply import patch sets and mail them to each other.

  • Git was made to work decentralized and repositories are trivial to mirror.

  • If we actually created Artificial Intelligence and it was reasonable, it would realize how environmentally catastrophic its massive energy use was for the planet and demand to be turned off

  • Can humans think under that definition? I think it's highly likely we can't.

    Are humans always able to come up with anything new? If so where does this ability originate. How would someone identify that?

    I think this definition of thought is too limited and not how we use the word intuitively.

  • I am using eternity. There, it's just a link but every word is surrounded by ~.

    Unfortunately, I don't think lemmy.world is authoritative in regards to formatting and Lemmy itself -- iirc -- does not suggest formatting guidelines.

    Spoiler formatting is also a pain because of that :/

  • In assessing risk assume everyone is a bumbling idiot. For we all have moments of great stupidity.

  • There is definitely a risk in changing it. Many automation systems that assume there is a master branch needed to be changed. Something that's trivial yes but changing a perfectly running system is always a potential risk.

    Also stuff like tutorials and documentation become outdated.

  • I think that a lot of people believe on some level that everyone else works as they do. Even if they intellectually know this to not be true.

    I can imagine that someone who struggled with their sexuality or gender can believe to see their own struggles in others. And like in your example if their personal solution was to "just get over their hang-ups" it makes sense that they see that also as a solution for others.

    Another more annoying example would be those older people that are clearly in the closet saying stuff like "this is normal. Everybody has those urges/thoughts sometime."

    Back to the topic of this being patronizing: I agree. Respect should go both ways. Even if one is 100% convinced someone is a member of the alphabet mafia and even if they are right in the end, one should respect them living their life as they want to as long as it does not negatively affect others in a major way of course (hateful or intolerant behaviors).

    I had an acquaintance once who behaved very stereotypically flamboyantly gay. From voice to body language. The thing is he himself says he is not attracted to men at all. Has a wife and last I heard soon a child. At least to me as an outsider it looked clearly like they truly loved each other. He told me multiple stories of gay men trying to convince him he's gay or bisexual. Militantly so. Of course also stories of people being bigoted and assuming that he is gay.

    Another story was something in a game community where a trans girl called someone who was clearly struggling with their gender identity feminine pronouns and even a feminine sounding name. Even though they said multiple times that they don't like it. I also talked with the trans girl that I didn't find this ok. In the end it turned out that they were indeed a trans woman. I still believe to this day the behavior was disrespectful at the time.

    Sorry for the wall of text. I got a bit carried away.
