Ah, you're right, sorry. Corrected.

There is a postponed issue regarding them here: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/issues/811 (Edited after @steveklabnik corrected me)

I have had great luck with Brother drivers on all the linux machines I've ever tried to use them with, so I would consider that a good option as well.

mainly just, "how to deference the address you just got to get the value you want." Might be covered under the "syntax" heading as well, but the concept was still gone over for tho…

Well half the devs call it "little-c" but the other half call it "clang," and what do you mean there is already something called clang?

I can't speak for jvns, but for my degree, "UNIX BASICS" was essentially "Command-line basics" (an intro class), and Assembly was pretty much just the actual language syntax, regis…

A prominent member of the rust community has been publishing a series on getting rust to target their Uno: http://jakegoulding.com/blog/2016/01/02/rust-on-an-arduino-u...

It depends on the state, though most are "at will." Some companies will do a "trial period" in which some of your benefits are held back for anywhere from 60-90 days, so that may b…

off the top of my head, I would say it's similarity to Ruby means that Ruby devs would have an easier time learning the language than learning an entirely new one. Crystal also see…

I used both nim (back when it was still nimrod) and rust for a while, before eventually settling on rust. I tried to give nim a chance, and was told that "they will grow on you" ("…

Indeed, C Rust interop is one of rusts design goals. The Rust Book goes over this a bit: https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/ffi.html#calling-rust-code-fr...

Thanks for pointing out my "y'all" typo -- fixed. I just don't like the way "y'all" rolls off the tongue, and never enjoyed using it. But, as you say, there has to be SOME second p…

Really? That's disappointing. I'm going to edit my post a bit bc apparently I've been misled :-/

My wife talks this way all the time, and when we were first dating it really bothered me. Eventually I came across an explanation of the regional-ness of it on the internet somewhe…

Not sure if this fits the bill, but you can do code generation at compile time with cargo using build scripts: http://doc.crates.io/build-script.html I have an as-yet-unpublished c…

Came here to say this. I learned so much that I didn't previously know about WWI from HH. Not only the military history aspect, but the political and cultural context for a lot of …

I don't really understand this issue. If I write a one line function in rust, nested within another function, I will use a closure. Which, incidently, rarely requires me to annotat…

I assume @ComNik is referring to core.schema and core.logic[1] here, respectively? (if not, sorry @ComNik) 1: https://clojure.github.io/core.logic/
