In a statement, Conservative housing critic Scott Aitchison panned Tuesday’s announcement as another “photo-op” that won’t get the homes Canadians need built.
I don't know if Trudeau's plan is any good, but what the fuck is the Con's plan? More unregulated free market trickle down bullshit?
Higher pay!? The horror!!
Finally some positivity around async Rust!
I write a lot of embedded C for a living, and can't wait for the ecosystem to get better so I can switch to Rust. Threading always starts simple. All I need is to spawn a thread and wait for a message on a queue. Then requirements change and I'm waiting on multiple messages from multiple other threads and suddenly I'm writing yet another state machine that async Rust would write for me.
I also wish I had "coloured" functions in my embedded code. Often times it's not even documented if a function blocks or not, and sometimes the behaviour changes depending on compile time configuration (blocking, or interrupt driven, or DMA, etc.).
Async Rust certainly has it's complexity too, but at least to my brain it would make a lot of my code much simpler.
I need to find some time to really dig into Embassy one of these days.
Yeah, y'know, just kinda bummed out.
Be careful for when they randomly swap the buy and close buttons.
I've never heard of Skiff, but it's sad to see more software gobbled up by VCs. Though it sounds like the back end was never OSS to begin with?
I used to be so excited about a future where people were software literate where we would be building open systems and make a decent living. Instead, people have been force fed locked down systems in the name of "user experience", all so that a few people can make an absolute killing while the rest of us feed off the scraps (even if the scraps of the software industry are still pretty good). It just makes me sad.
I am extremely appreciative of folks who do make honest open source software though! Many of them do make a decent living too. It's hard not to lose hope when reading stuff like this, but then I remember that I'm typing this comment using Firefox on KDE Plasma running on a Linux kernel, right next to an Emacs session. Sticking to good open source software is a wonderful thing!
Us city folk tried. 😑
I use EndeavourOS with KDE and it's wonderful!
Does anyone know offhand the issues Calamares has with Xfce?
He must be using i3
“And I think it’s because people who work on airplanes, people who work in restaurants, people who work building things love my message.”
What a load of shit. He's even starting to sound like Trump.
Why is CTV giving her any attention?
Wow! This is the first I heard of this so I looked it up.
According to this article it looks like you need a particular build thats not in the nightly mainline, and its very experimental.
Still, its exciting to see them work on this! I use Tree Style Tabs with custom userchrome.css, but it is a bit fragile. Native vertical tabs would be great!
