Rust lets you do nostd (no standard library), it's targetted towards embedded development.

That said, IMO dependency bloat is not a language specific problem, but a library specific problem (essentially how a specific community thinks).

I can't give examples in rust, since I'm new. But for example in Python, I've observed many modern commercially supported libraries (i.e. open source, but with a company behind it) tend to be bloated as they almost always have too many "features", includes stuff like dashboards, authentication, etc, as opposed to open source projects driven by a community.

Bloat is a mindset.

I wouldn't want to bypass the check, specially for something that directly deals with Bitcoin! I'll see if I can open a ticket with nostr:nprofile1qqs2gazhwghppw36yu0muuzqykdrcndzeafml50pnqfcy9xjx5rylssppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnyv9kh2uewd9hj7qgmwaehxw309ahx7um5wghx7unpdenk2urfd3kzuer9wchsg3ewyk

I'm guessing the file gets corrupted during download, not sure why. I'm on a decent Wi-Fi. Anyone has any thoughts?

#asknostr

Try to solve a problem that bothers you, search and see what's appropriate for that, start there.

Think of coding as a tool that helps you automate things you do repetitively. IMO that's a good enough mental model for a beginner.

From my experience in India (commercial establishments like malls and office buildings always turn it way down), big indoor outdoor temperature difference would make me sick. But then people are built different, maybe it doesn't affect everyone the same.

Is this a new #Amethyst feature?

Absolutely fantastic! All my years of using social media, this is the first time I've seen this feature implemented in a way that's zero friction. I can even configure or disable it!

Thanks, and job well done whoever implemented it 🙏

I don't disagree with all your points, just some, 2 & 3 specifically. Both are related to attention, to some extent also the "bonus" remark. I don't think people need to rely on hooks or other unrelated elements in their content for people to be interested on a platform where the dynamics of advertising is absent. Here quality of the content is what matters most. So that should dictate length, detail, or style (which is also why I really liked your "ultra bonus" remark).

Maybe I should have led with that, and been more precise with my words in my original comment.

Everything you listed are rules that are a consequence of the advertising model, isn't it? Video as a medium is older than social networks, I would guess your professor was referring to rules about film making in general (FWIW, I've heard that quote as well).

Nostr is a fundamentally different kind of network. There are no central arbiters, or hidden incentives. No one makes money of off its users.

Pension and social security is the biggest pyramid scheme. I'm an immigrant worker, and so far 2 different countries have basically kept my pension contributions without any reassurance or a clear way for me to access it, and the 3rd country where I spent the most time (8+ yrs) forces me to pay for social security, but when I need that security, I'm ineligible for the benefits. I'm quite certain they'll screw me over on the pension as well by changing the rules later.

No thank you, I'll manage my own security, and my own retirement. I don't need no state interfering.

Damn! That looks much more pleasant than the "boat" I'm on right now 😋

Just presented my 2 hr hackathon project at #btcpp privacy edition, Riga!

https://github.com/feuplebian/git-futz

With the recent attacks on developers of cypherpunk software bythe state and other malicious actors, developer privacy is becoming more important.

So I developed a command-line tool to fuzz location and time information from your unpublished git commit messages before you push your commits to a public branch.

Comments and suggestions welcome :)
