Rust has gained immense popularity for its ability to help developers write robust and efficient code without sacrificing ease of use.

Rust's unique features and design principles grant it several advantages over other programming languages

I don't want praise and ads, I want honest and clear points: what good and what not so good.

By using standard implementation of cryptographic message signing?

Erm. Duplication of code is ok. Removing absolutely every duplicate function is just premature optimization imho.

If you have two different customers with slightly different workflow then go ahead and create two mostly the same functions. When you will have 4 different customers with slightly different workflow, then its a time for refactoring, maybe extract basic same functionality into separate function/object, maybe introduce dynamic workflow using finite automata, maybe extract these functionality to separate modules.. but never do it prematurily.

Imho, sometimes ,removing of duplication very much increases complexity and code became hard to understand and hard to modify.

Im not even 100% sure that API is really bad? Some hairness could be easily explained by performance reasons. You don't want logging to take a massive amount of system resources.

Do we have a term for combination of enshittyfication and LLM?

Hm, I still not sure about this article lesson.

So, main issue is that users of old version can use new feature, but they should not? On a desktop app? But why they sould not be able to do it in the first place?

I mean idea is good, but situation described in article looks like completely fictitious or incomplete..

If SO supposed to be wiki, then why there no clear way to update the answer with new information? Why only the person that asked the question can mark answer as correct? Clearly some person with more expirience should have possibility to mark answer as correct.

Honestly Im not so sure, he do exactly what was Trump did: he creating news by doing questionable things and forcing us (and other people) to talk about Twitter.

Thats actyally very good point. Our phones x100 or x10K more powerful and complex than computers from 90s, but always works and very-very rarely need reboot.

Main issue (as mentioned at HN) - no clear licensing or sorting by licensing. Some icons (such as Amazon) are not permitted to use by third parties. HN thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36837442

Honestly I still don't get it. Every dialog with ChatGPT where I tried to do something meaningful always ends with ChatGPT hallucinations. It answers general questions, but it imagine something everytime. I asks for a list of command line renderers, it returns list with a few renderers that do not have CLI interface. I asks about library that do something, it returns 5 libraries with one library that definitely can't do it. And so on, so on. ChatGPT is good on trivial task, but I don't need help with trivial task, I can do trivial task myself... Sorry for a rant.

I just want to add that ChatGPT is a "really fancy snippet repository" that sometimes, randomly lies to you.
