Not that cool maybe but I once played a lot of Pathfinder (1st edition). I made a website with a detailed database of all the items in Pathfinder with very specific filters and also including a random item generator. You can try it out here:
I know it’s not really what you’re asking, but have you considered learning Rust? In many ways, Rust is more similar to C than C++ and is just as capable. There are quite a few very well documented (as is common in the Rust ecosystem) Rust libraries for GUIs, including efficient native ones or immediate mode ones and such. Just a suggestion.
I’m amazed by the fact that it remains such high quality even when you go so far back to the early videos. It’s crazy. Dude is a genius.
That’s not livestock, it’s just the genetically engineered intelligent cow species we made for fun. It’s wearing an earring.
Kind of weird but suit themselves I guess
but it doesn’t stop them from existing on the fediverse.
Well of course, nobody has absolute power over the fediverse like that. Anyone can start an instance and create millions of bot accounts if that’s what they wanted. But “the fediverse” is only what it looks like from the point of view of your instance. If stuff is blocked or defederated, it may as well not exist.
The point isn’t to eliminate all bad behavior on the fediverse (that’s not possible, by design of the system, and that’s good). The point is to allow users to seek towards those instances that keep bad behavior out.
You only need to stop it on your own instance. You can’t do anything else anyway. Users will go to the instances that aren’t flooded with bots.
Warcraft 3 custom maps still drag me back sometimes.
There’s nothing that can be done to stop it
That’s not true at all. You can definitely do something:
It definitely does. You just defederate from the instances that don’t do something to avoid bots.
I think you’re misunderstanding the never type. The never type is not a hack at all. It’s a very natural part of the type system. Just as you have the unit type (), which is the canonical type with only 1 value, you also have the never type, the canonical type with 0 values.
This is extremely useful in generic code. See my other comment in this thread.
This is an unfortunate wart to appease a desire to those that want to be able to write code like they do in legacy languages
What do you mean with this? I can’t really decipher it. What alternative to the never type would you want?
shouldn’t Rust enforce returning from function
This is impossible. How would you enforce that? What prevents a function from panicking, aborting the whole process or just going into an infinite loop? All these things correspond to the never type.
I think you’re misunderstanding what the never type is. It’s not equivalent to None at all. It’s a type that doesn’t have any values. This is useful in situations with generic code where for example an error type can be chosen as the never type. Then you could destructure or unwrap a Result without handling the error, cause the type system guarantees the error never occurs.
I think you should read up on the never type a bit more. It’s a perfectly natural part of the type system. In fact you can make your own very easily: enum Never {}
Can’t wait for the never type to be stable :D
I feel like it is just a matter of time before either:
Even if that doesn’t happen, redundancy isn’t bad. We’ve seen how hard it is to migrate when there’s only 1 real option and that option disappears or goes bad for some reason (i.e. reddit). If there was another fairly active community with the same focus, that would make it easier to keep going. That’s part of why decentralization is good.
This is a non issue. Different communities and instances have different rules, norms, cultures etc. There’s no need to smash everyone together in a monoculture.
Exactly. This is a non issue and actually a feature.
There are now, fortunately, plenty of low carb, low glycemic products that are a lifesaver when you have cravings.
What products are you thinking about?
I mean, just set the limit to a ridiculously high number then? I’m not aware that Lemmy has any in-built limits, but I could be wrong.
I believe that Mastodon instances with limits only link to external posts that exceed the limit, they don’t display the whole post.
Of course you can always run into network limits if you get huge posts, but that applies to everything and doesn’t have anything in particular to do with Mastodon.
I think that’s quite harsh. As I said, I know it’s not what OP asked and it was just a suggestion. I’m just adding it as an option. Perhaps someone else reading the thread will find it useful, if not OP (who I don’t think you should speak for).
OP mentioned they want native speed and were struggling with badly documented libraries. I feel like it was appropriate to at least mention Rust, considering those two things. Since when is widening a discussion slightly considered bad? You don’t have to reply to my comment either, if my comment does not seem interesting to you. Let alone downvote it. You can just leave it alone, it doesn’t hurt anyone.
