Hope that isn't coming from personal experience, brother/sister/anything you prefer.
In Bangla, we call the color peyaji, which is basically "onion-y". It's also what we call onion fritters, and they're absolutely delicious.
Edit: Just remembered that we also use it as a slang for fucking around. Not sure where that came from lol.
The idea is that someone is checking the code. And by building it yourself, you can at least ensure that you're getting what's built from the code. It is possible that some malicious stuff was inserted while building the binary that doesn't show up in the source code. Building from source solves that problem.
Reproducible builds try to solve that problem by generating some provenance from a third party. A middle ground can be building the binary using something like GitHub Actions, since that can be audited by others. That comes with its own can of worms since GH is owned by M$, but I digress.
So it is technically sane to do it, just not very practical in my view. But for lesser known apps, I do sometimes build from source.
I mean, that's not a Rust issue per se. It's only noticeable because cargo is much better than most build systems, and hence is an actual option for distribution of software. But there should ideally always be a binary distribution. I know some people like to build everything by themselves, but I get it, it's annoying.
Yep. Grew up in a village. We had flushing toilets that flushed into a septic tank.
Yeah, I did find his whole demeanor annoying. But I still did like the content of his arguments. I also liked some of his books e.g. The Selfish Gene and The God Delusion. But lately, he's just fumbled the plot.
It applies to the whole US admin.
I experienced it when I got to know that Richard Dawkins is a TERF.
What did Margorie Taylor Greene do again?
Perfect username lol.
Yeah, like I can tell you about our communist history, or our surrealist poetry. But then you'll call me an extremist, or even worse, a nerd.
So I keep those for when I get drunk and overshare, and just talk about fish recipes and desserts.

Same in many other places. Around 2015, I remember recharging with a prepaid package that gave me 100 messages/day. (I think it was like ₹10/day). I used to save from my lunch money so that I could text my then gf. Man, I was so happy when she finally got a smartphone.
