>memory leak
Uhh... Rustsisters?
fuck this tabless terminal
why would you want a terminal with tabs? are you retarded?
do you know what tmux is? do you know what i3 is?
Do you know what tabs are?
You can get tabs of any kind of window with i3 containers.
Get browsers to stop using tabs then I'll care.
Microsoft fucked up decades of user interface design by having such a shitty window management system web browsers added tabs
I don't use tabs, I use the grasshopper extension on firefox
it's probably related to the macOS toolkits. rust can't prevent leaks in code that it doesn't manage.
it's pr...ACK
not like this rust sissies
The Rust borrow checker does the following:
- Ensures that only one mutable reference to a given value can be held at once
- Ensures that a mutable reference cannot be held simultaneously with an immutable reference
It does not prevent:
- Memory leaks; leaving memory allocated unnecessarily does not pose a memory safety risk.
- Stack overflows; the program terminating early in a predictable state is still memory safe
- Panics; the program terminating early in a predictable state is still memory safe
- Runtime crashes in other libraries
- Bugs
- Writing unsafe code; just use an unsafe block, and use pointers instead of references.
It does prevent:
- Segfaults in safe Rust code (not panics.)
- Data races in safe Rust code
It does the latter simply by disallowing dereferencing of pointers in safe Rust code, and that's the crux of the entire value of Rust. It's been decades and there still aren't any non-trivial C++ codebases that have succeeded at avoiding data races by just "getting good" or even with the best static analysis money can buy, and thus here we are.
I dunno why retards on LULZ focus on criticizing Rust in such a horribly stupid way when the language has so many obvious problems. I don't even use Rust because there's not a single good UI toolkit in the entire ecosystem (checked last year, still all completely shit.) Is it because memory safe languages don't let you stroke your ego with that old "real men use Vim" mentality of using shitty tools on purpose to seem cool?
it's because they're NPCs.
>I dunno why retards on LULZ focus on criticizing Rust in such a horribly stupid way
>why are retards on a site for retards retarded?
Look, man. Every year I keep waiting for "eternal summer" to end. LULZ isn't even a cool edgy place anymore, it's been a lame site for outcast degens for at least 10+ years, and yet this entire board has gone directly downhill for years despite the fact that, based on discussion, i can actually tell there are *more* people who actually write code today than there were in ~2010 (back then, you had to go on /tech/ for that.) I keep thinking hey, maybe at some point, they'll get bored. I kept hoping that MAYBE, asiatic moot would change things at least a little, and then it just got worse instead.
But despite that, I actually do occasionally have mildly intelligent discussion with people on here, so I know there are some other homosexuals still bothering to hold out hope; Personally, my reason for holding out hope is more desperation than anything. I mean, where the fuck else can you go? The alt-chans are all garbage and unpopulated, and the least awful site covering programming topics outside of here is probably HN which, well, is shit in its own ways, and also no fun at all.
I just want to hang out with fellow degenerate losers and talk about programming and Linux and shoot the shit. The IRC channels I used to go on for that are gone, and everywhere I go, new shit is maximally pozzed garbage.
I used to think maybe I was just becoming a bitter old retarded man, but I recently dug up chatlogs from 2008, and I realized that the Internet used to truly be our home. Now, it's just a bunch of larping homosexuals who think it's funny to "troll" people by literally just saying retardedly incorrect shit on purpose and then acting like it's a super cool own when it gets corrected.
I don't really like the pozzed tranny shit anymore than anyone else does, but literally what people here do is exactly the same as trannies but backwards. everything is "tainted" because a troon touched it once. absolutely retarded, kill yourselves
Is this a copypasta? I haven't seen it before.
>The IRC channels I used to go on for that are gone
All of the good irc communities have escaped to small private servers that only spread by word of mouth. The second any of them open up and advertise their existence on the wider Internet, they get flooded with retards and die. It sucks because a lot of desirable non-retards don't have the network of personal connections to be brought into those private communities, but there's no decent way to find those people. As awful of advice as it is, the only thing I can recommend is finding and befriending old-internet-style people and getting invited into their communities, because that's all that's left and that's the only way to get in.
Rust does not prevent memory leaks. In fact, it's trivial to leak memory, and there's even a standard library function to do it. idk why this is such a sticking point for nocoders, but leaking memory is not a safety issue.
https://github.com/rust-windowing/winit/releases/tag/v0.28.3 the leak is in this library.
https://github.com/rust-windowing/winit/commit/dec45bb09fc521885ef6bd593a20eca98893d2c9 this commit fixes it.
So it's a refcycle. Yep, makes perfect sense. It's a well-documented way to leak memory in Rust.
NPC programmers don't understand that there's different kinds of memory "leaks." additionally, rust specializes in not corrupting data, not necessarily preventing memory leaks. you can't write code that corrupts data but you certainly could write code that would consume memory unbounded.
>rust has issues only your grandpa would face
you know what else is a cycle? the field of technology
really shitty devs, apparently
It's like Kitty but more primitive. Still kinda decent, I suppose.
