I'm just building various projects. Either I get my bachelors in comp sci in the next 2-3 years or I get an entry level front end web dev job. Whatever comes first.
I recently finished the first project I set out to do. It was a simple site to help with tabletop rng rolls. Basically, you click on a button representing DX, and you'll get a random number between 1 and X (included). The buttons are spawned programatically because doing that manually is just not practical.

>The development comes a little over a year after the tech giant [Google] disclosed that its transition to Rust led to a decline in memory safety vulnerabilities from 223 in 2019 to less than 50 in 2024.

>The company pointed out that Rust code requires fewer revisions, necessitating about 20% fewer revisions than their C++ counterparts, and has contributed to a decreased rollback rate, thereby improving overall development throughput.

>We adopted Rust for its security and are seeing a 1000x reduction in memory safety vulnerability density compared to Android's C and C++ code. But the biggest surprise was Rust's impact on software delivery," Google's Jeff Vander Stoep said. "With Rust changes having a 4x lower rollback rate and spending 25% less time in code review, the safer path is now also the faster one

>With roughly 5 million lines of Rust in the Android platform and one potential memory safety vulnerability found (and fixed pre-release), our estimated vulnerability density for Rust is 0.2 vuln per 1 million lines (MLOC).

>Our historical data for C and C++ shows a density of closer to 1,000 memory safety vulnerabilities per MLOC. Our Rust code is currently tracking at a density orders of magnitude lower: a more than 1000x reduction.

>It was TOO good
100% unironically THIS!!!

Tech that has no room for improvement has no way to be resold as an "upgraded" or 2.0 version.
If you don't care about that, and decide to make the perfect tech then once you've been acknowledged as perfect, every competitor will have no choice, they'll be forced to copy you, then all that work will be for nothing. This is the fatal flaw of commercialism. It abhors perfection because it can only be sold one single time. Flawed products can be resold over and over again, being rebranded as "improved" once they're acknowledged as flawed. All the tech sold today is just an acceleration of this ideology.

Bros, I've been waiting for the pixel 11 pro release because I only buy 2nd gen hardware releases since I know the pixel 10 and n use the new custom soc from Google. I know the 11 is basically going to be a hella refined version of the 10 so it'll last a long ass time.
Problem is, im a concerned about the dram shortage making these phones obscenely expensive beyond their 1k intro price (i always wait for them to drop 250$ midway through the year).
My pixel 7 pro died and I ended up replacing it with with a refurb model but now I'm nervous and debating if I should just get the pixel 10 pro with some extended Google warranty.
How badly do y'all think the dram shortage is going to fuck smartphones?
Ended up buying an elitebook g11 for 500$ that has 32gb of ram to hold onto for the next 5 years as a good workhorse laptop because of all of the bullshit.

If you use the GNU Image Manipulation Program, there is something wrong with you mentally.

It is the only thing preventing me from using a Linux-based OS on a permanent basis. I need Photoshop to work and WINE is buggy as shit. The GIMP is a shit alternative.
