Leaving Rust gamedev after 3 years
  • @kaffiene @asdfasdfasdf Its slow when you dont know what youŕe doing. For example, build a linked list in #rustlang is different then build one in java, because you can´t leave the variables in a wrong state. It's only a different approach, not a slow approach.

  • since: my first project
  • @larix @Ephera it's better to return an Option<&str> as a String may DeRef to &str.

    For example

    self.name.as_deref()

  • Are Rust errors are so verbose or its just me?
  • @iso all the errors are the same. Missing trait implementations. Already see c++ template issue with dozens of lines. There are some tools that helps like the below. But if you had 100 missing traits implementations, you will got a 100 error lines report.

  • Are Rust errors are so verbose or its just me?
  • @iso In my opninion they are pretty neat, if you use their monads correctly.

  • Could rust do with a crates.io alternative?
  • @onlinepersona Got this issue two days ago. Someone upload a package with same name of mine. I was need to change the name to also upload.

  • Don't write Rust like it's Java
  • @onlinepersona @snaggen another problem I see people doing while writing rust, is trying to write code like java. Rust isn't an OO language, but you can organize your code and have hierarchies.

  • Don't write Rust like it's Java
  • @onlinepersona @snaggen

    people write oo code in linux source code using c. With rust is simple. Just use composition, and you can explore the traits, that serves as and is better than interfaces.

  • The Urgent Need for Memory Safety in Software Products
  • @snaggen Cyber security problems seems to be a major issue to fix in this decade.

  • Introducing RustRover – A Standalone Rust IDE by JetBrains
  • @snaggen not for me also. #vscode or #helixeditor are pretty neat in my opinion.

  • Async Rust Is A Bad Language
  • @sugar_in_your_tea #golang is a near perfect aproach for writing concurrency and async code, indeed, but rust already has channels in standard library. My github has a lot of concurrency code using only std library, including examples in atomics, channels, mutexes, conditional variables, etc...

  • Async Rust Is A Bad Language
  • @sugar_in_your_tea @wim
    go channels and goroutines are very good and easy to work, but thei cant acquire the performance and security of #tokio. You can write good code and solutions with goroutines, but there are limitations. #Rust async is a bit more difficult to do, but its not so or too complicated or dificult, and you will choose between the two languages by kind of problems you want to solve.

  • Stable Linux distro with up to date packages
  • @NoRecognition84 @rodneyck its bad anyway. Why a opensource project will do something like that? Telemetry causes bad performance in production. If its opt in, no one will activate, and soon the business will force its use.

  • Stable Linux distro with up to date packages
  • @rodneyck @octalfudge
    that's very bad news. #fedora is a nice distribution, but telemetry leads the machine to bad perform.

  • AMD Processor Use in Linux Gaming Surpasses 70% Market Share
  • @ghariksforge @Gecko No one supports Win 10/11 telemetry and updates. And also, there are a huge rejection to win 11 from 10 users.
