I keep wondering, if forums and social media platforms required ID verification (probably through a third party with policies against retaining PII) and each account was linked (but not necessarily publicly) to a real ID, would that help? For example, being banned from a platform would be permanent since the ban would be tied indirectly to your ID, meaning that consequences would be real for abuse.

I feel like the core problem is that people can post without consequences. It's both a good thing and a bad thing ofc, but maybe the downsides are too big.

Could also maybe be a more robust "verified" system I guess where all platforms verify identities of businesses/people through a common provider, and even a platform like Lemmy could show who is verified (which would require tying the identity to the account publicly). This would still allow for anonymous accounts, but those who are verified would be able to be held accountable to what they post online in exchange for higher credibility. I don't think the verification systems we've seen already really help that much though, considering how toxic twitter has been basically throughout its entire existence.

A more serious answer would be that Rust can't be compiled to all targets. There is a lot of work to get Rust to compile with gcc though, which would help with this tremendously.

It was mentioned in the notes for 1.84.0 that they began migrating to it. They might be doing it without an edition change if it's backwards compatible (or if the incompatibilities are considered bugs).

Returning the cart, or at least moving it out of the road, means I don't have to get out of my car and ~~lob the cart at your car as you drive off~~ move the cart out of the way to park my car. Decency has nothing to do with what you do for yourself - it's all about what you do for others.

Personally I don't really care where the cart is as long as it's out of the way and not a problem for the store's staff to access it.

For me, it highly depends. Turn-based strategy games, I can easily play at a much lower framerate (30 is fine tbh though I always appreciate more). FPS-style games? 60 is a bare minimum, but 100+ is what I would consider to be enjoyable.

I'm not aware of anything that's specifically drag-and-drop, but slint supposedly has a live preview that could be helpful.

Is there a reason it needs to be specifically in Rust?

This is the real battle that should be fought against antisemitism. Not random symbols that people have used for decades to mean completely innocent things. Someone who would heil multiple times on public TV and openly post and share hatred on major platforms.

It's a shame the ADL refused to call him what he is when it mattered: a nazi.

Usually the serialization/deserialization code, I keep with the model. The part where a file or whatever comes in, I leave that to the caller to decide on. In other words, the model knows how to serialize and deserialize itself, but not where it's being serialized to or deserialized from.

Then again, in C#, it's usually just a couple attributes on my model, and in Rust, it's usually just a couple derives. It's rare I actually write much, if any, serialization logic by hand.

The weather here has us trapped at home, but I hope that the protest goes well! Organizing like this is important, and I hope we see more of this in the future, preferably with more time to prepare.

There's an entire category of machine learning dedicated to having two AIs "fight" against each other. One generates something while the other classifies it as either AI generated or genuine.

Anyway, this is a complete tangent. Just thought it was interesting. AI detector tools for LLMs aren't usually very accurate, unfortunately.

FYI I don't know if you were implying that I downvoted your comment, but the instance my account is on has downvotes disabled. All I see on my end is the original comment has 3 points.

I'm not sure what you're expecting people to reply with when commenting that in a Rust community. People here tend to use and like Rust, so it's a bit odd to make sarcastic remarks here about one of Rust's biggest features and expect people to react well.
