callyral, to linux in Redox OS - an OS built entirely out of Rust
@callyral@pawb.social avatar

(notice: I am not a Rust or C/C++ expert)

Doing all that is creating a completely separate programming language from C. Rust is that programming language.

Fix shitty imports

Rust does that with modules and crates.

Improve syntax rule

You mean having consistent/universal style guidelines? Rust pretty much has that with rustfmt.

Improve memory management

Safe Rust is memory safe (using things like the borrow checker), and Unsafe Rust is (usually?) separated using the unsafe keyword.

Although Unsafe Rust seems to be quite a mess, idk haven’t tried it

Other new misc features

Rust has macros, iterators, lambdas, etc. C doesn’t have those. C++ probably has those but in a really weird C++ way.

“install flatpak”

why would someone do that in NixOS? nix has a lot of packages and using flatpaks imperatively would lead to less reproducibility

i thought this was about game development for a second and was confused as to why you wouldn’t be able to do that on linux

callyral, (edited ) to linux in Writing program
@callyral@pawb.social avatar

Any text editor that lets you write Markdown (all of them, since markdown can be written as a plain text file). It’s simple but featureful. I would recommend Marktext.

callyral, to linux in are tiling WM good only for terminal?
@callyral@pawb.social avatar

Yes, I’m using swaywm right now and I’m typing this comment on Firefox.

Although most (if not all) tiling window managers are configured with a text editor, not a settings program.

callyral, to linux in Why didn't anyone remind me the dual booting exists?
@callyral@pawb.social avatar

wait, you can have two different systems, on two SSDs, on the same computer? this will be useful once i get to build my pc. Thanks!

i’m guessing having windows on a separate drive will mean that it won’t break GRUB?

callyral, to memes in Yes. We're better than you.
@callyral@pawb.social avatar
