“To stand with Palestine is to be human.”

I really like rust™ as a language. but their foundation does some drama every 6 months.
I was almost done with “the book”(their official book) when this draft policy came out. they have since backed up a bit, but I really don’t want to see ‘oracle 2’.
they say they’re not going to do an oracle because ‘trust us’. i’m indecisive ever since.
I love pattern matching, I want to have 8 different ways of creating strings. what I don’t like is the way foundation wants it to go.
but if in the future I wish to make anything with rust, I’ll use the trick you mentioned :)
update: I received a letter from the rust foundation stating that my use of the word rust violates their trademark policy. I have to redact my pervious comment.
rust™ -> crablang when
the only JS package manager I have on my system.

I was reading the Wikipedia page linked just an hour ago.
and I was surprised to see over a billion daily users on Facebook. I used to think at best that’d be in millions.
I understand now that what do people mean when they day social media’s amplification of a certain message can have great impact. I used to take it lightly, partly because I an totally detached to any of these big platforms.
and being on Lemmy is a wholly different experience.
I’m not into too much music, but whenever I do want to listen to some, I open a YouTube music client which is more than enough for my needs. they don’t require subscription, or are ads-riddled.

sigma star.
if you haven’t heard about theory of computation, let me define some keywords:
now, sigma has powers. Σ² is set of all strings of length 2. e.g.: {aa, ab, bb, …}. you can generalise this to Σ^n.
Σ* is union of all powers of sigma. i.e., Σ¹ + Σ² + …
so, a language is basically a subset of Σ*.
as for why theory of computation even exists, you basically try to define what a computer can/cannot do.
and you try to mathematically define a computer. then you try to define what a language is(in case of programming , you need it to form languages and compilers). hence the need for this.
I reuse some of the ducks by doing
pnpm i
