Hi, version 1.100 is near, maybe we could collect some ideas of how to celebrate it? ![]()
1100 is 12 in decimal. "A dozen reasons to use Rust..." maybe.
Curate a list of 100 high quality crates.
2.0
Any expected change to go along with it? Like never type stabilising.
People already told me - no 2.0.
Release Rust 1.1 binaries instead.
We could make the mathematicians happy and go to 1.991 instead.
We could deem 99 to be in bijective nonary (9*9 + 9 = 90), so the next is 111 (1*9^2 + 1*9 + 1 = 91) and we never have zeroes in the version number ever again.
I was considering more the decimal evaluation -- 1.991 > 1.99 in both decimal and semver (nevermind the patch component).
And what will be after 1.999? I assume 1.9991. I prefer the schema I use.
Yes, 1.9991 -- but to be clear, I'm not seriously proposing this. ![]()
I hoped you were a serious, It's hard to live with zero sense of humor. From other side, new CEO claim - never smile. Probably I'm on the right way.
As stupid as it sounds, that wouldn't have been the first time someone seriously did that... Most famously PyPI's html5lib which ended up on version 0.999999999 when their developers thought surely 0.99 was gonna be the last release before 1.0 ![]()
the first time you use (when not suing rustup) or update to (when using rustup) rust 1.100 it should fill your terminal with confetti
If Polonius Alpha and std::simd finally become stable, it will be such good a celebration! But I haven't seen how's it going and what are the teams planning, so I am not sure...
In Rust 1.99 -- the 100th stable version ignoring patch releases
-- Polonius alpha will be enabled on nightly. (PR with 1.99 milestone.)
did you mean "enabled on nightly"?
Yep, thanks!
i feel like that would be a bad idea as it may make people opposed to delaying it if a design issue comes up, which could cause leakpocalypse 2.0.
but if it becomes stable in time on accident it would make for a good surprise.
