Who knew TPMS reports would evolve into snitches?!!

I have that for my Mahir van in Night City.

Bob Dobbs returns to the chat.

Broccoli Hair is LIFE!

Same as it ever was.

Apple's taking a slow lean into AI and at it's core, Apple has always been a computing appliance company.

Easy to see Apple offering a home AI Mac Mini with home Siri support ("All your stay inside your house. Really. Trust us!"), along with easy to impliment IoT applicances.

This is just an evolution of Jobs' vision from the early '80s.

Raccons are the Norte America 'B-Team'.

Squirrels are the 'C-Team'.

I wonder what the other continents have as B-Teams?

1350s pompadours for teh winz!

The sandwich is a lie.

They're rich; consequences are for the poors.

How can you state that? I'm assuming you're a Rust proponent from that wild statement, which goes to show you how little you know about the topic.

Yes, memory leaks can and do happen in Rust. Rust is not perfect. Neither are the people who write it.

Most Rust code is written by its proponents' AI models, anyway.

This is an engineering maxim as old as time.

If your response to theoretically old, brittle, and "wrong language" code is "rewrite it in something better", you don't understand the problem.

There has never in the history of software development been an effort to rewrite a platform in another language which wasn't subsequently plagued by all manners of new and interesting problems.

In a best case scenario, the product has an exhaustive regression testing framework, complete unit tests for every function, e2e testing, and reintegrative CI/CD. But that is rarely true for any project, and certainly isn't true for old ones which predate such practices.

You make an important point: the biggest positive contribution to making old tools better without introducing more brittle behavior is with coverage from test suites, and improved code coverage.

This IS the Rust community you're talking about, after all.

While Rust is a fine language, the community tends to be a bit fanatical and irrational. Pair that with a generally shallow technical aptitude depth and a lack of experience, and vibe coding, and therein lies the problem. There seems to be a high intersection between them and the systemd, so that's not a surprise.

And that's without getting into questionable mental health practices that are common in that community.

That's likely part of the problem.

It stocked a bunch of cool nifty things that people talk about but don't necessarily want to buy (or buy many of/often).

The museum gift shop description sounds like that to me anyway. Like I bet it has rope loop guns there.

Sort of like what thinkgeek was back in the day.

My friend's daughter already does this for a local supermarket.

She fulfills online orders meant to be picked up completed. It's not a terrible job either.
