How long until support gets added for repos with merge queues? I'd love to use this at $WORK and so would my coworkers, but we can't turn off the merge queue so we can't use stacke…

Not GP but I feel like there's a continual process of the stdlib adding some new functionality to make one such crate redundant (e.g. is-terminal in 1.70), but it isn't done yet.

I noticed my 13 thermally handles being on a soft surface (like a bed or a couch) very poorly, it gets quite warm to the touch and runs the fans hard even at rest. Does the improve…

Similar story here. Mine is 3 years old, and the battery is about 80% of its original capacity and the touchpad occasionally drops clicks, but otherwise it's still working great! A…

I don't have sources on hand, but my understanding is that there are a lot of people who come to CA without a good plan nor a social support network, become homeless, and then peop…

Maybe this isn't the case for you, but a number of creators I watch have some videos that they only upload to Nebula. So it's worth it for me to see those videos I otherwise wouldn…

There's a lint for indexing an array, but not for all maybe-panicking operations. For example, the `copy_from_slice` method on slices ( https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/primitive.slic…

I got 48%, so no not everyone does.

Ah yes, because Signal is famously the app you use to be alone and not interact with anyone else

Will it be possible to upgrade my current framework laptop to the new 16" form factor? It feels like it should be a possible upgrade, but I haven't seen anything saying that it wil…

If you pick the DIY version, that is an option. I got mine with no OS preinstalled and no MS tax, and it was easy enough to install Manjaro.

Those things are fine, but many companies will e.g. register a separate company in a tax haven, give that company a piece of IP, and then have that company charge the original comp…

In my experience, LibreOffice Draw usually messes up the formatting of any PDFs I open in it. Nothing entirely unsalvageable, but text gets slightly moved around and winds up overl…

How does this compare to other companies that dig tunnels?

I read it as "the database could increase in size by several orders of magnitude and still fit in memory"

If you run an advertising company, you could probably just pay people a small amount of money to get their browsing history and their FLoC id, and enough people would take you up o…

Many people do code against some sort of VM, but there are still people writing code in C/C++/Rust/Go/&c that gets compiled to machine code and run directly. Also, even if you're r…

But is it ideal for a "Hello, world" program to follow all best-practices? In my opinion, a "Hello, world" program should do the bare minimum to print "Hello, world" to the screen,…

But what if I want to show off to my friends how smart I am by rattling off a gazillion digits of pi off of the top of my head? I need more than 10 digits to do that... /s

Firefox has a bookmarks sidebar that pops up if you press Ctrl+B (or buried inside the hamburger menu, but Ctrl+B is the easiest way to access it). You can put the bookmark in ther…

One thing that I like about Rust is that they actually allow you to merge those two into one. In your documentation of anything, you can include code snippets, and those code snipp…
