Why not just compress a directory then encrypt that?

I think one thing to mention is that Rust is highly specific in what it does. In most of the examples you mentioned, string types, tokio::main, you can essentially just say that rust is more explicit. When initializing an integer variable in C using int, it’s not specified what use the integer is or whether it’s signed or not. i32, uint16_t you can see how it’s specified. Using tokio::main before your main function just specifies that you’re using the tokio asynchronous executor for your async code. In the case of string types, they all have different implementations which just help with being specific.

The reason I like Rust is because I know what’s happening when I read it. Did I have to read the whole async book to understand how the tokio::main stuff works? Yes. But now I understand exactly how it works. The problem I have with using Javascript is that it doesn’t have that high amount of explicitness(is that a word?). At the end of the day, if you’re using it for a personal project or you’re arguing for language supremacy, it really just comes down to personal preference.

Sweet - I didn’t realize that malware is tailored for one OS usually, but that makes a lot more sense.

I love you so much. Never change

Is anyone actually going to go and check what they asked for? I feel like I understood what they asked but still don’t know where to start if I were to try.

That was such a cute lil post

Why do the tech heads show why it won’t be adopted mainstream any time soon?

Linux doesn’t always work. We know that. But it looks like you’re misconstruing your specific issue with some broader argument for Linux being mainstream. The fact that you connected it to a switch tells me that youre already more advanced than the average user. I get you’re annoyed, but you can also just ask about your specific issue.

The article made a few good points, but a good amount of it was conjecture. I liked the part about comparing the two functions and showing that exceptions are faster but I think a big thing he’s not getting is readability. Even in the functions he showed, you can directly see that the one using std::expected has the happy path and error path directly in the function signature, whereas the exception one doesn’t.

As for the “error kind” trap he was talking about, that definitely exists, but ignores the fact that you can also get this same kind of error from exceptions. I’ve definitely gotten exceptions that I didn’t understand from Python or Java libraries, but it’s not a problem with exceptions but a problem with how they’re shown. If there’s nothing to tell me that I should have thought of that error, it shouldn’t be an expectation for a dev to have thought of it.

Edited to clarify, my b

I think most use who use keepass instead of bitwarden do so because keepass is offline, unlike bitwarden. At least that’s what I understand.

Before scraping I would verify that there is no HTTP API that you can use to craft requests instead of scraping from the website. These might be higher quality than what you can scrape. If there is no easy to use http API, go to scraping then. I would generally consider scraping the last option, unless it’s a ridiculously easy website to scrape.

This is a really good point for a language that is largely advertised as being more secure due to the borrowchecker.

I heard there are quantum computing libraries in Python if that interests you!

If I were you I’d browse PyPi for any packages that look cool.

I’m not exactly sure what to think about it, but I do like how there’s specific things that have their implementation in code right there. I did only look at the site for like a minute, so take that with a grain of salt.

I know it’s a dumb idea but imagine how fun it would be if there was no copyright

That idea of booting from a USB is golden.
