I remember some people expressing how annoyed they were with people reimplementing standard command line tools in Rust. But here is the reality of such reimplementations: hachyderm.io/@cliffle/11332081…
It isn’t just the memory safety. The reimplementations typically turn out much simpler, partly because of a more high-level language and partly because of usable dependency management.
If you have 20 times less code to maintain, you can do a lot more with it. Adding “nice to haves” like output coloring in C requires considerable effort, improving usability of these tools in Rust on the other hand is a no-brainer. That’s e.g. why duf and dust can present the output better than df and du.
And there are performance wins at almost zero cost. That’s partly due to relying on well-optimized libraries instead of own reimplementations (yes, dependency management again). But taking advantage of multi-threading and modern CPU features seems much easier in Rust as well.
There's a handy command line tool, fdupes, for scanning a filesystem for duplicate files and optionally removing them. It's about 6kloc of C. That seemed like kind of a fun little toy problem for this evening, so I wrote a little work-alike in Rust.Hachyderm.io
Alright I'm organizing 6 weekly meetings with some very unwilling participants, so I need 6 loaf cake recipes to win them over... any recommendations? 🍰🍰🍰

Digitale Erpressung durch App-Zwang: Immer mehr Dienste zwingen uns zur Nutzung von Apps – und das auf Kosten unserer Daten und Wahlfreiheit. Ob Online-Banking, Bonusprogramme oder Rabatte, ohne App geht oft nichts mehr. Datenschutz bleibt dabei auf der Strecke, während die Abhängigkeit von wenigen Großkonzernen wächst. Es ist höchste Zeit, Alternativen zu fordern und die digitale Selbstbestimmung zu bewahren! #AppZwang #Datenschutz #DigitaleFreiheit

Mostly small improvements, e.g. the AXML parser now supports offset16/compact/sparse ResTable type/entry, no major changes. I have not yet found a test case for FLAG_SPARSE, so support is untested and help is appreciated!
NB: this release changes the license from GPLv3+ to AGPLv3+.
• change license from GPLv3+ to AGPLv3+. • binres.py: support offset16, compact, FLAG_SPARSE (untested) etc. • binres.py: small fixes, warn "please file an issue" for untested/notimplemented code. ...GitHub

Доступна платформа совместной разработки Forgejo 9.0, перешедшая на лицензию GPLv3
Опубликован выпуск платформы совместной разработки Forgejo 9.0, позволяющей развернуть на своих серверах систему для совместной работы с репозиториями Git, напоминающую по решаемым задачам GitHub, Bitbucket и Gitlab. Forgejo является форком проекта Gitea, который в свою очередь ответвился от платформы Gogs. Отделение Forgejo произошло в 2022 году после попыток коммерциализации Gitea и перехода управления в руки коммерческой компании. Проект Forgejo придерживается принципов независимого управления и подконтрольности сообществу. На использование Forgejo перешёл Git-хостинг Codeberg.org. Код проекта написан на языке Go и распространяется под лицензией MIT.

Moji milí sledující. Už podruhé se pouštím do akce, která mi přináší dost starostí, ale také hodně radosti. Kalendář mohl vzniknout jen díky vám a vašemu zájmu.
V anketě jste rozhodli, že po červených utažských skalách z minulého roku, to letos bude mix severoamerických přírodních krás.
Cena kalendáře je 350,- Kč. Zahrnuje výrobu kalendáře, pevnou přepravní obálku, zabalení a cenu poštovného v ČR.
Nejedná se o výdělečný podnik, cena kryje náklady.
