Is the Singleton accessed by one thread or many?
If it’s one thread, couldn’t you just wrap the Vec in an Rc and then clone your singleton every time you need it in a new scope?
If it’s many, you should use channels and a dedicated logging thread imo.
Is that conky? I didn’t realize that worked on Wayland.
Skill issue, I finished a CS degree with vim
Ok probably your best option is a used Thinkpad, or maybe a Chromebook with the Chromebook distro, but if you want to do something crazy you could try the Pinebook Pro. It’s a 14" arm laptop that comes with debian for $220. You might need some accessories, but it would still be <$400 for something new and interesting. However, it’s a bit slow, and arm doesn’t have as much software support. I think it could do everything a CS student needs, except browsing may be slow because web apps are so absurdly big and complicated now. Definitely would get more than 5 hours of battery.
Didn’t know about that one, thanks!
If you want to accept a user input of any length, you have to read the input piece by piece and allocate a new buffer if the original becomes full. Basic steps would be:
malloc to make a char * buffer\0 to your buffer and break the loop. You’re done!memcpy to copy the stuff from the old buffer to the new one. Use free to get rid of the old buffer.This will work until you fill the entire memory of your computer. You should probably set a max length and print an error if it is reached.
It creates a flat network between all of your devices anywhere, so if you have a home server that you want to connect to from elsewhere you can do that without port forwards.
It boosts faster tho, so for average usage it might be fine. It just will have trouble with anything that requires sustained use, which for me would probably just be compiling code or games, things I wouldn’t try to do on a tablet.
What’s your use case? Maybe you would be better off with Tailscale or something like that
That’s an incredible price for 16gb of memory and a 512 ssd. Would be an upgrade from my 14" laptop. I just hope I don’t have to wait multiple years to get it.
The Iron Heel by Jack London is one of the earliest dystopian novels. Imagine if the third book of the Hunger Games were written by an early 20th century socialist.
Yes, it will get better over time. You are using an entirely new operating system. Things are different, but aren’t that hard to learn.
My big tip for installing Linux is to use the package managers when possible. Every distro comes with at least one package manager, which can install many pieces of software. On Ubuntu, there are two: snap and apt. (Yes, this is confusing. Canonical is trying to change the way they package software, and it has made their distro harder to use).
Also, what kind of software are you installing that requires different permissions or ports? If you’re trying to set up servers you many be better off with a different approach.
I have this hazy, memory from when I was about 8. I was exploring a peat bog, which was fun because everything was soft and squishy and I could just run around. I saw some weird looking bushes, and decided to go check them out. But, as I ran up, it turned out there were growing over this sort of wet hole, where maybe there was a spring or something. I suddenly fell about 8 feet, and was in this mud pit slowly sinking. Luckily, I managed to grab some of those bushes I’d seen, and pull myself out. But it was very hard, because the mud was pulling me down like quicksand. Eventually, I crawled back out on the bog, covered in mud.
Nobody I was with remembers this, and honestly it might not be real. Childhood experiences are super weird.
Hi, I’m mtf, but in tech, so maybe I can be a bit helpful.
I’m thinking you may be right that a lot of guys are stealth. It’s very hard to be stealth mtf in tech because there are already not many women. At my company, there are three women in engineering, me and two cis lesbians. So I kinda stick out. But it would be pretty easy to be unremarkable if you pass as a man. I actually know (well, talk-to-on-the-internet) at least one stealth trans guy in tech, so you do exist. Tech is relatively cool with queer people, depending on the area, so I don’t think being stealth is a requirement for a successful career.
I really like software engineering as a career for two reasons. First, something about my brain (autism?) Makes solving little puzzles on my computer and putting together virtual systems super satisfying. And also, software is one of the easiest ways to a stable career. Like what other field can get you a 6 figure salary with a 4 year degree? And honestly office work is pretty easy as long as you work for a chill company. Money and stability are big advantages when you’re trans.
I’m sure you already know this, but there are lots of good careers in tech outside of programming. Some good examples are cyber security, cloud/sre/devops, and data scientist. You can get into all of these with a bachelor’s degree, but some you can do with an associate’s instead and save two years.
But, like, I guess the job market is weird and messed up rn, so maybe the more education the better. But even with the tech layoffs there are stuff tons of jobs out there. Sure, you might have to work at a bank instead of Google, but it’s still a stable, well-payed office job. Don’t get discouraged by silly undergrad cs students who are doomer about everything because they didn’t get the Facebook internship.
I’m totally down to answer more questions if you want or chat about tech. Good luck figuring out your path through dystopian late capitalism!
The point of the post is to introduce you to async Rust libraries, not to prove that Rust is the best language for web dev.
But actually I’m afraid most of your comment is incorrect because the best language for web development is sml.
need another trans girl to teach me Haskell fr

Suburban car culture. People can go on and on about the how they like driving, and like the freedom to drive everywhere, even if it makes them fat and lonely. But what about their kids? It’s insane that kids are essentially trapped at home unless a parent happens to have the ability to drive that somewhere. Your convenient lifestyle comes at the cost of raising neurotic introverts who won’t go outside.
