For any of my rust projects I really don't bump my deps unless dependabot shows a serious vulnerability or I want to use a new feature added. Outside of that my deps are locked to the last known good version i use.
It's a sign that they learned from Python more than anything else. Better be conservative than have Python's situation of multiple versions of those common functionalities (in the stdlib) that almost nobody uses and goes for 3rd party libraries anyway. Is that a better state of affairs?
The Rust vs. Node comparison seems very shallow to me, and it seems to require a lot of eye squinting to work.
People have beef with Rust in other, more emotional ways, and welcome the opportunity to pretend they dislike it on seemingly-rational grounds a la "Node bad amirite lol".
Isn’t the problem with a minimum age release that the opposite would also occur - a high priority fix of zero day under exploit wouldn’t be fixed and you could be compromised in the window?
It is! It’s a tough problem to balance. The good news is that you can always override for specific cases. Linking to my other reply here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47880149
I find it interesting that the article doesn’t seem to understand that Rosetta 2 essentially does most of this (it is an ahead of time translator/compiler) with a few exceptions for runtime dynamic code. It creates an ARM binary for an x64 binary the first time macOS on Apple Silicon runs an x64 only application. It evens mentions Rosetta.
Have you tried otvdm? (Back port of WineVDM to Windows x64.) I tried with a Win16 (VB appearing application) that interfaces to a device using an optical transceiver on a serial port and it worked fine.
As someone with a right side fuel intake, that’s certainly isn’t true in the US. Left side fuel intake dominates completely and when the 8 pump station I prefer is busy, I only ever see left hand intake cars being fueled from the “wrong” side.
