In terms of compilation of programs Go is far, far easier than Rust. For Rust to compile a random Rust program on the internet one almost always has to have the absolutely latest out of repo compiler toolchain from curl rustup.whatever | sh. The normal 4 year release cycle is incompatible with rust development. For commercial use cases this doesn't matter. But for open source like the tor project it does.
That said, since they use Firefox this bridge has already been burned.
I (pro-EU Austrian) think they are great, as they show that we also get huge benefits through our EU membership and that we can do such enormous megaprojects only together
Also, eyesore? What do you have against the EU flag?
They do get made at national level. That's because, for example, what to build is decided at national level, then they bid for EU funding as part of financing of the project.
Basically yoy bid to get some of your money back...
Another "interesting" related thing I found is that pid 1 signals are handled differently in the kernel. Basically, SIGTERM is ignored and you need to explicitly handle it in your program. Took me quite a while before I found out why my program in a container didn't quit gracefully...
I also use Talos, but I wonder if just using systemd for the init process wouldn't have been easier. You can interface with systemd in go quite easily anyways...
s6 (perhaps with s6-rc) is another interesting option. One could say it’s less opinionated than systemd. Or perhaps it’s more correct to say it has another set of opinions.
Here's a stupid question: per the site, "any entity wishing to make an active and material contribution to the development of future HDMI Specifications" can join the HDMI Forum for $15,000 p.a., and the Board of Directors is elected by majority vote by members.
Is there anything other than the money and desire to do so stopping 100 well-heeled Linux users from joining up and packing the board with open source-friendly directors who would as their first official act grant AMD permission to release its driver?
This sounds like what microsoft did to get their Office formats standardised by ISO. Paid membership to a bunch of folk and had the vote in favour of approving the standard. (I'm summarising *a lot*, but that's the general gist of it).
Also Rust has a lot more inherent safety features than go.
(I think Go is great and its my primary language)
