If you are on a public network without using a VPN you open yourself up to MITM to inject something malicious


Sure, but that's ultimately a pretty unlikely attack vector. An attacker still needs to exploit some unknown vulnerability of your web browser in order to get something malicious going.

I basically expect that sort of attack to only be pulled off by a state actor or by a black hat convention for the lolz.


ISPs used to inject ads into HTTP-served pages as recently as 10 years ago, I personally remember that. Not only tiny ISPs. I'm not alone: https://superuser.com/questions/902635/isp-is-inserting-ads-...

Ads injection is a relatively benign kind of tampering. It could be much more creative and sinister.


I think that is precisely why people, and myself, ate happy with Zed. I don't, personally, care for those kinds of features. I want something that is snappy, and bloat free. I beloved extensions are planned so that will come in time. I'm terms of inline error highlighting, it absolutely has that. is your LSP just not working correctly?


> is your LSP just not working correctly?

I don't know, I can't tell, but I would guess it does not. I just got the one and only Java extension there is (the other has has something to do with Eclipse). Yet, no error highlighting.


Link? Not sure which account you are referring to



The issue is not an apple exclusive game, it's that they will make the Unity developer experience apple only.


How could that work? Even the M2 Ultra isn't nearly as powerful an actual desktop GPU, much less workstation or data center cards. And devs will need to be able to test on Windows machines.


They have. https://clerk.com/ is an example that I have been looking to use lately


had that issue as well but I found that enabling a couple optimizations fixed them all on my laptop. I created an aur package for it hyprland-opti-git


I am sorry but I cannot agree with this at all. It is not long ago that I went through this education, but there are far too many poor teachers. Education is a difficult problem to solve, but that doesn't mean that banning anything that competes with the attention is the solution.

If teachers are so boring such that the majority of students are turning to a dinosaur game, then the lesson is already not going to be learned. Might as well just give them a pamphlet and tell them to study for the test, as that is what is basically happening anyways but with more timing flexibility.

If it is only a minority of students doing the dinosaur game, then they will turn to something else anyways. Thus the blanket policy it implements according to other commenters just ruins it for others.


Not OP, but are you taking into consideration that it is not Python 3.9, but pypy, which is distinct


Man, I don't know what has happened but the spur for new editors has.been delightful. I have been using Zed for a bit since I made it into the closed beta, but it has been very nice to use. VSCode does the job pretty well, but it just feels more clunky to me, and I have hitches quite often. It is not bad, but I want something more performant while giving me the style of vim and emacs. Zed definitely has some rough edges and some sorely missing features (that are being worked on), but it just feels better to use.

I know so many people probably discount these projects because of the RIIR meme, but it really has spurred more inovations that we should all be grateful for.


RIIR doesn't scare me at all -- as a user, my experience has been the rust rewrites are usually high-quality improvements over the original. Ripgrep is legendary!

It is a huge accomplishment of Rust to enable the creation of better versions of lang-standing highly-optimized-C tools.

(Which inspired me to kick the tires a bit on the language; it felt like C++ done right to me. Being able to write threaded code w/o fear of data-races is very cool.)


For the uninitiated: RIIR = Rewrite it in Rust


> Man, I don't know what has happened

My guess is that 4coder kicked all this off.


Like another commenter I am not surprised by the author. I do not recall where, but I immediately recognized the name from somewhere.

The tone and accusations to me appear to be inappropriate. While they may be correct, it is just insane to be so accusational. I find it not productive and in turn makes the community worse off in the first place.
