Great talk!

Rust is YAL ... We already have great languages, we really dont need these copies of old languages. Rust and Go should be forgotten and let to rot.

Since when is using good ideas from other languages a "ripoff"??

Rust is top, and you know it. Haters: just cry. 🤣

Perfect timing with the Github outage recently

Could you attach your presentation slides?

Why my univ profeseors didnt teach me this 😂

no freebsd?

Yeah I saw strings for the first time and was like WTF why are there so many options for it?!

I wrote a program to solve minesweeper, mostly it does the basic method of "There is a 1 in the middle of this 3x3 grid therefore I know 1 mine in this area, same for if 2 or 3...", but it also when that fails it will work out all the combinations of 2^n up to about n = 20 to try to solve it that way or atleast get a more likely safe square to click on. (below n=20 runtime is nearly trivial, above becomes stupid long). if n>20 it will randomly guess. The program wins the Easy boad ~95% of the time, Medium board ~75%, Hard board <40% (hard - would need to check that number).

Damn, this was amazing, I'll have check rr out.

OCaml's debugger has time travel and it's immensely helpful. Looking forward to watching this!

This so makes me miss LISP, a dynamic and dynamically typed language that has pretty clear semantics. None of this nonsense! But fun python video.

To one lineify everything you could either take the lame route of exec("...") or take the fun route of using ast.dump to dump the ast of your code, prefixing __import__("ast"). before class names, then wrapping that huge expression in compile and exec

Hillarious!

"Two foodstuffs are isomorphic under the.." Gotta memorize this along with my monad and endofunctor jokes.

I am not AI pro, but your meme at 4:32 .. isnt “hiring more experts” much more expensive than “stack more layers? I assume the latter involves adding gpus or npus, isnt that cheaper than “hiring more experts”. We want best ROI

yea I hate that game

The giggles says it all.

Long time Emacs user here andvI enjoyed that. Great analogy with a web browser. Thanks for mentioning syzkaller I hadn't heard of it before. Was also intrigued by your pdf mode, I didn't know it could do that.

THIS IS A JOKE

Bro made me reconsider my life choices

no mention of octave or scilab at all ?

This is why i don't like Rust. 1. It tries to be an everything language, or at least the community tries to make it like that. 2. Nativly, like not installing third party packages / crates, the language is very bland and limited.. I don't even think you can interact directly with windows processes using base rust, you have to install other crates - which ill get into. 3. Windows api usage and FFI is utter garbo.. Way to strickt, way to goofy on the syntax.. no solid references that used the "standardized" windows-rs / sys crates, literally every repo you come across still uses winapi-rs which hasn't been touched in 8 years, even noted it is depreicated and no longer being maintained. 4. Given it's extremely heavy reliant on third party crates, it's hard to get anything done as those crates are not standardized, so if you want to learn how to use Tokio or maybe someother less popular crate then you essentially have to go back to the old days and read the source and documentation or even find examples on github or stackoverflow and just hope they are not completely out of date from the current release. 5. Job market is dead for it, so essentially it's irrelevant. You'll only find job listings if any that require a PhD, and a wild X amount of years in the field worth of experience... i just checked on linkedin and like the the first 5 were like this... the money was good though. 6. Security is a lie... when normy devs who are in sec talking about security, they just mean memory leaks.. which can 10000% be caught using C. A Rust application broken down in a disassembler is just as the same as one in C.. the loop and strings look different in Rust, other than that totally the same shit.. can dump, patch it all the same as you would a C binary.... so normy devs talking about "Rust is safe, Rust is secure" just suck at memory and type managment. 7. Rust does not detect integer overflows unless you are in debug mode. 8. It doesn't have a strong suite... Want to do netcode ? Go lang is alright, want to make kernels for Windows and linux? C, want to make a general desktop app for windows? C# or C/++, Want to get into ML, AI, Data science? Python or Julia, etc etc... It's like every field of developlment and subfield already have really good languages to pick.. that are relevant in the harsh job market now adays, and have been around for a long time which means they have a lot more support here. there, and elsewhere compared to Rust. 9. I don't know this as a fact, but from what i've read in a post from 2023, Rust wasn't added to Linux as much of the meat riders say it was.. it's justa apt-get, not kernel code is in Rust.

Came here to find a solution to a box related problem. left with nothing but hopelessness

The Content is good but To make the video more engaging, please put the camera in front of the host for the recording.

Im in no way associated with the lgbt community. Is it really wise for Warwick to be endorsing intolerance? Screams incompetence.

i havent used pyhton for a long time but i remember that when i tried to print 2 strings one after another it would put a space between them but if the strings already had the space at the end of the 1st one or beggining of the 2nd one it wouldnt put a second space WHY WOULD IT DO THAT!!??

yeah makes sense

cor blimey

so well demoed in so little time. great job

MATLAB's a practical modelling tool if you're proficient in it, otherwise the counter-intuitive semantics of the language, as you've mentioned, in addition to the overwhelming size and documentation of core MATLAB and its add-ons can make it disorientating to navigate and apply in practice to engineering problems and projects. It doesn't help that universities don't teach MATLAB anywhere near comprehensively enough to give students the fundamental understanding and confidence that they need to use it.

Nice

rust is shit

Great video. Completely lost me with the kitchen analogy haha,. It was the opposite of useful

linux, Microsfot, google suports Rust

Damn that pdf flickering is bothering me so much

Gophers are basically rats, right ?

Whatever I don't want to manage legacy Rust code in 20 years I will stick with Go and Zig (+ C)

hahahoho haha hehe i like standup comedy!

Punchy presentation Aidan, well structured, nicely done!

fuckit module is supposed to be a joke. Isn't it?

M-x animate-birthday-present is a great mode. For me, this puts emacs ahead of the rest, and by some measure!

16:06 It's so disrespecful to beat this wonderful presenter up like that 😢
