something China doesn’t do

hmmmm

Are you saying that China will collapse/decommunize?

If you don’t care about extensions, try some of those “DE default” browsers that never seem to be actual defaults. The ones like GNOME Web, Falkon, Konqueror, Midori (it was the default on one XFCE system once).

What’s this fool doing blocking only ports 80 and 443?

Oh boy I can’t see this going wrong at all!

Why do you censor that website? If you say the name in full (enough times), we will show up in search results for them.

I am not the person who said “C++ has rotted their brain”. I have not expressed a similar sentiment. I have never said that “borrow checker fixes all”, in fact I said that it will not magically fix everything.

And if I want a bug-free code, I will use same tool as ever: my brain

Is your brain infallible?

The strategy is not to 100% eliminate every bug in existence or theory, bugs are inevitable. The strategy is Swiss cheese security.

Something is better than nothing. Therefore (brain + something) > (brain + nothing). As long as “something” works to prevent bugs, to any extent, it will result in fewer bugs.

It’s not a “magic pill”, it’s another tool. We’re not saying that it will magically fix everything, it will just make certain types of errors less probable.

If you want bug-free code, will you (A) use a tool that makes it easier, or (B) use the same tool as before?

“Skill issue” is not an answer.

Like the fox?

Apt is written in more C++ than C, so it would be apt to select a language that is similar.

What does this mean for the end-user? By how they worded it…

the APT packaging tool next year will begin requiring a Rust compiler

it seems like you need a Rust compiler as a dependency for simply having Apt installed on your system.

Debian and most distros based on it do not even install a C++ compiler by default, and apt is mostly written in C++.

Does that really have the same results as the example scenario I described? How would you even access the unnamed struct, since it is unnamed?
