I had the same issue. I enabled the option "Open links in external browser," and now it uses Firefox again, albeit by launching the full app separately instead of as an embedded activity.

This OS seems to have fixed all the things, based on what I constantly hear about it. Is Nix really all it's cracked up to be?

I haven't figured out an easy way to install a specific version of an app, which means that when an app update is broken I'm out of luck until a fix is released, so I'll install the snap of the app until then (Spotify is a recent example). Don't like that.

I think you can probably make the question a lot more interesting by asking them to implement max without using any branching syntax. I'm not saying that is necessarily a good interview question, but it is certainly more interesting. That might also be where some of the more esoteric answers are coming from.

I literally just watched the video from Louis Rossman, and came straight here. Pleased to see everyone already talking about it!

I actually vastly prefer this behavior. It allows me to jump to (readable) source in library code easily in my editor, as well as experiment with different package versions without having to redownload, and (sort of) work offline too. I guess, I don't really know what it would do otherwise. I think Rust requires you to have the complete library source code for everything you're using regardless.

I suppose it could act like NPM, and keep a separate copy of every library for every single project on my system, but that's even less efficient. Yes, I think NPM only downloads the "built" files (if the package uses a build system & is properly configured), but it's still just minified JS source code most of the time.

I honestly can't say I've noticed much of a quality difference, so it doesn't seem like a huge value add. I might just be oblivious though.

Currently trying out Kagi, still on the fence. Boy am I blowing through the trial searches though.

I agree with basically everything said in the article.

It's also a bad article.

It's twice as long as it could be while only saying half as much as it should. An unfalsifiable thesis with an amorphous CTA, and a self-righteous, self-fulfilling conclusion.

How about we get some thinkers on this issue instead of loquacious parrots who love the sound of their own virtue-signaling.

Well, actually I would tend to agree that &[T] is preferable to AsRef in most cases; all of the smart pointers you mentioned can also easily be turned into plain references. I probably could have chosen a better example.

 

Whenever I encounter an interesting Rust programming technique, I add it to this blog post. I've amassed a bit of a collection. Hopefully someone finds it interesting and useful!

 

This seems like overkill to me, but Lamont is speaking very highly of this method. I personally rewatch movies extremely rarely, and the number of movies that I have seen more than once is very small, so the idea of watching one movie 50 times is rather nauseating.

I do, however, concur that re-consuming A/V media in an L2 is beneficial to me, as I noticed that I tend to struggle with correctly interpreting grammar the first time around.
