So so so so many ads in that page that I genuinely lost the article in the middle, that's a first.
UTF-8 is a variable encoding so none of the fixed sized type would work better for it.
The crashes are in the middle of browsers (both Firefox and chrome embedded in Spotify), if you try a simple mprime stress test (from the AUR mprime-bin) does it crash too?
One crash was in libxul and the other in libcef I doubt this is a specific lib
This local shadow for the AUR is awesome, it reminds me of the overlays for Gentoo they are super useful.
For me: Gentoo is a meta distro, you are the distro maintainer then the power user of that specific distro you created for yourself which can definitely be fun. Arch is more like: let's give you one instance of a Gentoo distro when you are tired of being the distro maintainer.
Funny how it is all relative...
Red hat for a few months -> Gentoo for 10 years-> Arch for another 10 years
For me this is the opposite: Every time I am forced to use Ubuntu I feel like I am in a torture chamber especially with 3rd party packages.
Literally every product. People feel so much safer after that :)
The rust one is called bottom (btm) see the other thread :). When you already have a rust environment it is just at a cargo install away which is convenient.
Neovim (nvchad) with copilot to write Rust. Why? The terminal environment is super flexible: I have 2 desktops and a laptop running on Arch Linux, all the same dotfiles with tmux to keep my sessions alive.
It all depends on your application domain: I mainly build embedded Linux code for a transportation drone.
I have seen another contributing factor in CS: it is really hard for the management to keep a good senior to junior ratio ie. A lot of juniors are trying to enter the workforce today. It means that during covid and shortly after the companies definitely relaxed as much as they could the geographical constraints for senior remote roles, also being senior they trusted them to work remotely not needing too much direct supervision. And now it backfires when your company is in silicon valley and you ask your senior developer from the boonies Colorado to move to an industrial concrete jungle.
