Linus is starting to turn on Rust. He's finally starting to see the light. We might actually see the end of Rust in Linux soon.

LIES! BIG DAMN LIES! I'M LITERALLY SHAKING RIGHT NOW.

it would suggest
use crate::{abc, xyz};

because it follows alphabetical order ;)

anyway, rustfmt is configurable. and if there is no option for a behavio(|u)r you want, you can just submit a future request. you don't have to rant about it. i know this is hard to grok for some, but some projects can improve just like that. their limitations are not a result intrinsic intractability! UNIMAGINABLE! right?

It's about code formatting. Linus is just an old boomer now. He is yelling at rustfmt because he doesn't like its formatting rules. He could've just read the manual instead of throwing a temper tantrum.

It's not a stable feature. https://rust-lang.github.io/rustfmt/?version=v1.8.0&search#imports_layout
>>
>>106778168
so? just use the nightly toolchain for formatting and the stable toolchain for compiling.
>>
Rust has some good ideas but the syntax and large featureset made me never want to read or write it. So I'm not surprised people are upset with the formatting too.

Holy fuck thank you jesus. RfL is the best thing to happen to Rust in years because it got the devs to focus on actual useful features (that RfL needed) instead of fucking around spending 999 years trying to make async not dogshit. I hope Linus doesn't back down and forces them to finally unfuck rustfmt.

Major victory for Rust. Siphon resources from others to improve their own language. The goal of Rust4Linux was likely not to benefit Linux, but to benefit Rust in some way. Get a foot in the door, and exploit it in any way, such as telling everyone that the Linux kernel has Rust to increase Rust's reputation, despite there barely being any Rust code in the Linux kernel at all.

The Linux kernel developers may now be stuck with the task of fixing Rust.

However, if Rust is successfully improved or fixed, control over it can be wrestled from the cultists, and one can set up systems to prevent anyone from truly controlling it. In theory, at least.

Maybe volunteers, companies and universities should have put more resources into systems programming languages over the decades. Also, C and C++ communities were somewhat isolated in some ways from for instance functional programming communities, and adding a feature to a systems programming language can be more difficult than for other programming languages.

this is based formating actually. operators should always be on the left if you do the line splitting. but in most C codebases I see they put it on the line before

>Major victory for Rust.
The most likely outcome of this is Linus sperging some more until he tells the rust cultists to FUCK OFF until they can provide a stable spec for anything they want to shove into the kernel. I wouldn’t call that a victory
>>
>>106780263
He's already helping them fix their shit. On the Rust subreddit, hordes of rustlings and regular Rust users agree with Linus, and they want better formatting.

Some questions are whether the Linux kernel developers can fix the more serious issues with Rust, how many resources it will cost the Linux kernel developers. And how Linux kernel developers will react if they come to the conclusion that they were lied a lot to on a number of critical aspects by the rustling evangelists.

Did you read OP you mouthbreathing mutt? This has nothing to do with the actual language. Linus is upset over the supplied formatter being garbage.
