This is absolutely ridiculous. It should be migrated to Java, so it can run everywhere.

Scratch should be the choice, obviously. It will be so much easier to maintain! Think of all of the new contributors!

To which Anthropic answered by open sourcing the whole thing under AGPL. Didn’t you see the news?

I don’t want AGPL. I will use claude to rewrite it and license it MIT since that’s peachy and legal now.

I am on the east coast and it had been April 1 for 14 hours when you posted this

A lot of April 1st posts seem to get made on March 31st and that includes from people in fairly western timezones, so I think they just get their post done the previous night, go to sleep, and let the chaos unravel.
I guess next year I’ll have to post a joke just after midnight. I’ll wake to find confusion and chaos.
Often we are not even included on maps.
the timestamp is generally local for the reader, not the poster.

I guess not rust itself, but people telling them to switch to rust over and over again. They use a lot of assembly magic to get good performance, they aren’t in C land.

You can embed Assembly in Rust. A lot of low-level Rust projects embed Assembly.
Totally, though I wouldn’t bother switching if your project is half assembly anyway. Unsafe Rust definitely has some beauty to it, but only if there is some safe Rust to embedd it into

Although if you’re doing it a lot, you’ve basically removed the main advantage of using Rust.
By the way, how is compilation to things other than LLVM going? I haven’t checked in a while.

Bro, just use Rust, bro.
We get it, Rust can suck your dick… and more!

You can Programm microcontrollers with rust, so while rust may not be able to suck your dick directly, you can build a fully automated memory safe dick-sucking-machine with rust.

I often joked, that if South Park made an episode about Rust, the compiler would work with a USB connected dildo, that you must suck every time you want to declare a variable instead of a constant, or go unsafe, also would feature a Cult of Java developers, that argue Java isn’t OOP, because you can just suck off the dick of the compiler in the same way, and use static functions and not have a complicated class hierarchy.

I don’t see where I said any of the words you just quoted. Impressive if Rust can suck a dick I don’t have though, I’ll give them that.

Was jokingly going to suggest a WASM version. But then: https://github.com/ffmpegwasm/ffmpeg.wasm
Makes it portable across architectures while also providing sandboxing.
The fedi software I use (GoToSocial) runs both ffmpeg (Sorry, ffmpreg) and sqlite through WASM, also makes it easier to integrate it with Go code apparently.
WASM is great :) unironically
everything should switch to wasm. i’m not saying this because of arbitrarily. it’s just very well thought-through. wasm automatically provides portability, sandboxing, and integration with other languages.
like, one of the things i still don’t understand is why we don’t have automatic sandboxing for every application. like, when i download and run a new game from steam, why isn’t it automatically put in a sandbox? Why does it have full read/write access to my entire disk? i don’t like that at all…
Converting everything to wasm would solve that automatically, and very easily on top of that.

Reminder that Fabrice Bellard, who originally wrote FFMpeg (and QEMU), also made JSLinux, currently based on his other PC emulator TinyEMU and using WASM.

It’s Apple’s programming language, kind of intended as a successor to Objective-C.
From what I hear, it’s actually decently designed and has quite a few similarities to Rust. Still not sure, how great it is outside of the Apple ecosystem…

The fluorescent green hi-vis is usually reserved for first-aiders, but there are exceptions. I was working on a site in the middle of some rapeseed fields once, and we all got issued green - anyone wearing yellow or orange was swarmed with insects in moments.

The neon green in Germany is usually anything.
We have those as high vis vests for car issues.
But we also have yellow and orange

Took me like 5 second after reading this to understand that it’s April 1st.
