Confessionalism is probably just as large a confounder as communism in this context though..

There is the Images Batch API that isn't subject to the 1200 requests/5 minutes limit: https://developers.cloudflare.com/images/cloudflare-images/u...

I could see a combination of this approach and one of the audit approaches like `cargo crev` working well in the unsafe case: - Require audit if there is new unsafe code - Otherwis…

The lenders will come out alright. Even if the utilities end up being renationalised their debt will be converted into government bonds. The mugs here are the public, which end up …

The atomics themselves sure, but I guess often they'll be used as a barrier to protect an UnsafeCell or something, like in the implementation of Lazy : https://docs.rs/lazy-init/0.…

> Even rust's memory model has places where it can't do what C++ can. (you can't use atomic to write data from two different threads at the same time) Perhaps not in safe Rust, but…

Land value taxes also seem like they would work very well, have some nice incentive effects and are hard to game: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Land_value_tax

This isn't quite the same, because it's just an alias - you can pass a UserID to a function accepting a PostID: https://play.golang.org/p/nSOgcJs_66y It still provides a documentat…
