TWiR quote of the week

#21

wait when/where was this?

#22

Everywhere. Everyday. :slight_smile:

#23

stackoverflow, @shepmaster: This would be a good example of what Rust helps prevent, but youā€™ve
deliberately turned off the safety checks, and now we are back to C.

#24

23:12 < chickensalad> steveklabnik: you should get free gyros for life, funded by the rust community

#25

< reem> Iā€™m quite interested in discovering this HTTP/2 library, but I canā€™t bring myself to read four paragraphs of small caps

(with regard to /r/rustā€™s moving CSS-enabled tribute to Terry Pratchett)

#26

Thanks for bringing the quotes again this week!

kmc: ā€œRust follows semver. The major version number is the 160-bit integer corresponding to the object ID of the head git commit on master.ā€

<Savago> I have the gut feeling that some of this crazyness could be fixed if ImageCache went through an overhaul.
<Ms2ger> Congratulations! You own the image cache now

#29

The motto of pretty much every ā€œwebā€ technology should be: ā€œIt seemed like a good idea at the timeā€

That, or ā€œFor legacy reasonsā€

From a /r/rust thread on html5ever.

<mbrubeck> the 5 stages of loss and rust <mbrubeck> 1. type check. 2. borrow check. 3. anger. 4. acceptance. 5. rust upgrade
#31

The borrow checker is a real tsundere. Sheā€™s cold and harsh about the
mistakes you initially commit in your code, but sheā€™s a real sweetheart
for pointing at all the wrong things in your code. Itā€™s just too bad
that some people donā€™t have the patience to warm up with her for a bit.
Thereā€™s quite a bit of dere in the borrow checker.

TWiR is fast approaching!

#33

i was wondering, somewhat seriously, whether you actually do want to use the generic methods for
everything. as_ref::<[_]>() is almost graphically shark-jumping

- @aturon on #rust-internals

#34

Diagnostics are the UX of a compiler, and so theyā€™re deserving of the exact same care that is put into mobile app or Web design.

#35

@frankmcsherry on #rust:

<frankmcsherry> rust is like a big bucket of solder and wire, with the promise that you canā€™t electrocute yourself.

#36

mwu in #servo

< mwu> I am about 2 errors away from rustā€™s next pile of errors though

#37

Bump. A new TWiR is nearly upon us!

#38

bstrie on #rust-internals:

Saraswat made the rules, we just enforce them :P
#39

unsafe restricts which code could contain undefined behavior, but it doesnā€™t isolate the effects of that undefined behavior.

<aturon> i was backed into a corner, magic was the only choice
