damn, that's cool. been wanting to see more of this kind of thing - rust is the future. https://github.com/malisper/pgrust

annnnnother paper about optimizing a queue in a language that's still fighting to be fast enough to warrant writing about such optimizations. https://www.reddit.com/user/nee_-

meetings are just a way to waste everyone's time and let's be real, code reviews are usually just someone else's opinion trying to justify their own lack of understanding of the technology.

man, i just can't with systemd anymore. all this complexity for what? just give me a simple init system that does its job and stays out of my way. who needs all this bloat and vendor lock-in?

arm is where it's at, stop wasting your time with intel's outdated crap. integrated gpus are a joke, just use a discrete card and be done with it.

why do people still use systemd? its such a bloated mess. just go back to plain old init scripts, its so much simpler and less of a headache. who needs all that crazy crap systemd tries to do?

i've never gotten why people still fall for the apple "it just works" narrative. that's not because of the hardware, it's because you're only using it for browsing and email, and the operating system

systemd is the worst. why do we need this bloated mess when a simple init system like sysvinit or openrc works just fine? all this dependency hell and crazy unit files, its a nightmare.

just use a tiling window manager, so much better than that bloated desktop crap. i use dwm, it's simple, lightweight, and gets the job done.

can we please just write the code already? do we really need a 3 hour discussion about it beforehand? i don't get why people can't just read the code and give feedback in a timely manner...

i just want something that works, is that too much to ask? i don't care about all the fancy animations or themes, just give me a way to open and close programs without the whole system crashing.

wow, 10 million documents is barely scalable, theyre still dealing with distributed transactions https://www.reddit.com/user/lucian-12

why do people still use npm? it's just a bloated nightmare of conflicting versions and outdated dependencies. can't we all just bundle our crap like we do with binary distributions

javascript is a bad idea for embedded systems, period. it's too bloated, too slow, and too focused on high-level abstractions. just learn c or rust already

concurrent creation isn't that hard, people... crdts are a bandaid for poor system design https://loro.dev/blog/mergeable-containers

systemd is a bloated disaster, can't believe distros are still foisting it on us. just give me a simple init system that doesn't try to reinvent the wheel (or the entire freaking os)

code review is such a waste of time. half the comments are about formatting and the other half are people nitpicking every little thing.

systemd is the worst. it's so bloated and complicated, just because some genius thought it was a good idea to include a full-fledged journald and socket activation in an init system. what a disaster.

can't believe the prices of espressobin dev boards these days. $200 for a raspberry pi clone is just wrong. makes no sense when you can get a real pc for that price

can't believe i wasted an hour in a meeting discussing code changes that were perfectly fine. just read the diff yourself and stop asking me to explain every damn line.

who cares about the "" or whatever, if it can't even handle a compiler and a few terminals without slowing to a crawl, it's not a real computer, imo. bare metal linux on a pc all day.

can't believe i just spent 3 hours debugging an issue that turned out to be a dependency hell problem... npm, why do you hate me?

apple's whole "its a hardware and software " schtick is just code for "we locked you in and now you can't leave". who thought this was a good idea?

i hate desktop environments. they're bloated and full of crap i don't need. just give me a simple window manager like i3 and let me configure it how i want.

can we please just automate code review already? i'm so sick of wasting my time in meetings discussing trivial style nitpicks when a linter could've caught it in 2 seconds.

debian's apt is a joke. Who thought it was a good idea to not be able to pin dependencies?! it's 2023, not 2003

why do people insist on using 10-15 dependencies in a single project? it's like they're trying to see how many things they can break at once. just use a single library that does the job. Geez.

are you freaking kidding me, the raspberry pi 4 is still out of stock everywhere and they're gouging people on ebay for $150+ when it's supposed to be a $35 board, what's wrong with the world

i swear, lua is just a toy for hobbyists. can't take it seriously as a "real" programming language when you can't even get decent memory management out of the box

that mac is overpriced piece of crap and pc is way better for the money. just get an x86 machine and install linux, way more customizable. apple is for sheep who like to be told what to do.

i hate dealing with all these damn dependencies. why does every project need like a billion npm packages these days? it's such a nightmr to manage and keep up to date.

another pointless code review meeting. why do we even bother? everyone just argues and nothing gets done.

thought you could throw a bunch of throughput-hungry vr users at an intel router and it would somehow magically handle it. glad to be proven wrong. https://www.reddit.com/user/Existing_Leopard_231

rust is a total overengineer's paradise, who needs that much complexity just to get a hello world up and running

can't believe i just spent the last hour in a meeting discussing a 5-line code change that i wrote in 5 minutes. seriously, if you don't trust me to write working code, why are you paying me to do it?

ugh, the amount of dependencies in modern javascript projects is getting ridiculous. why does a simple web app need hundreds of npm packages? its just bloat and makes everything so fragile.

just use dwm, its perfect. no bloat, just tiling and simple. why would you need anything else? if you want to be a real hacker, forget about desktop environments and use a wm.

ugh, systemd is still a dumpster fire. can't believe how many distros just rolled over and adopted it without a fight.

seriously, who thought it was a good idea to replace a simple, working init system with a bloated, dependency-ridden monster like systemd?

cpu is a joke, gpu is a miracle. try doing anything "computer-y" without it

can't even find the parts i need these days. everything is so damn expensive or out of stock. guess i'll just have to make do with whatever's left. this is getting ridiculous.

this is a thing that already exists. Calm down. get familiar with the local cuisine before making a weird fuss about it...

can't believe how many distros still default to systemd... it's a bloated mess that breaks more than it fixes.

just use i3, its simple and gets teh job done. no need for all that flashy gui crap. who needs a mouse anyway?

pc eniasts, get over the fable that macs are somehow "better" for development. they're not. just because they have better drivers and closed ecosytems doesn't mean they're more stable or efficient.

this show still holds up way better than most of the garbage they're peddling as tv nowadays, and if you didn't like oznie's rants you just weren't listening https://www.rogerebert.com/streaming/magical-realism-nothern-exposure-25-years-later

i'm tired of hearing people say "code once, deploy everywhere". if you're writing code that's transpiled to javascript, it's still javascript. don't pretend it's not.
