> Rust is too constrained without [unsafe blocks] to get any useful work done.
Just saw this in the wild again.
@veloren has about 330,000 lines of Rust code today. It's a networked, multi-threaded, 3D, portable game and game engine played by thousands of people. Very much not a contrived example. Name any sort of code and you'll find it in there: GUI, packet parsing, physics, DSP, decision trees, database calls, ECS, procgen, audio. It's all in there.
It has 12 instances of `unsafe`:
(1/2)

Of those 12 instances:
- 6 relate to hot reloading (dynamic linking) and aren't even presented in public builds
- 3 relate to the plugin system (JIT compilation and other things that are almost impossible to provide hard soundness proofs for)
- 2 relate to shader compilation (also JIT)
- 1 relates to accessing the OS clipboard and is unsafe because the underlying abstraction is perilously easy to abuse (thanks C)

I know these people are just trolls, but still. It irks me to see people still saying this in the wild.

"I genitori sono responsabili di tutto ciò che accade sul cellulare dei loro figli."
I bambini crescono in un ambiente digitale che spesso li sopraffà e li mette in pericolo, afferma l'educatore digitale Julian Bühler. Tuttavia, leggi e divieti più severi non risolveranno da soli il problema. Una discussione sulle chat in classe, sulla verifica dell'età online e su cosa può davvero aiutare

Just found that The Hu have covered The Trooper (Iron Maiden)

I'll probably keep the comic uncolored for now. It's easier and faster. The most important parts are colored (Mitsuru's blue hair and Shakura's red head veins) and I think it gives the comic a certain kind of charm. But I have to admit that I miss the blood stains on Mitsuru's hoodie.

Angry & Immortal #3: I actually like him.
Mitsuru who were you talking to? This is not a TV show.

How odd.
Every day at least a dozen of accounts from Gaza, each one with a sad medical story, is asking to follow me.
I must reveal in my profile I'm the widow of a general, living in Lagos, Nigeria.

@macfranc @fediverso sai che tempo fa avevo anche pensato di creare una community sull'accessibilità di hardware e software su feddit. Poi però ho fatto i conti col fatto che non sono mai stata brava a gestire gruppi di persone (tipo io un flame lo modererei immediatamente bloccando dalla scrittura chiunque vi partecipi). Mi chiamerebbero Trump. Ma soprattutto, ho realizzato ancora una volta che la giornata ha 24 ore e ho già la todo list piena di "incomplete" già così

@Carlettonico che genio, il Balasso 🤣
