I recently had the need to subscribe to changes to a Github repo and it turns out it provides a feed for them. For rust master branch, for example, subscribe to https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/commits/master.atom.


Is that feed linked anywhere? I discovered this before and am subscribed to a couple of those feeds but I add new ones rarely enough that I always need to look up how to build the URL.


Whatsapp works even if you choose not to install Google Services. You can download the apk directly from https://www.whatsapp.com/download.


"about" didn't work for me but "help" did.


"why" doesn't work either.


will add them both. Initially I looked at "about" and "why" as suitable only for the landing page


That's pretty reasonable, although the styling of the landing page makes it look like those are actual command outputs, so I expected them to work.



Or "Go Map!!" for iOS, which has a a similar quest mode: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Go_Map!!


Isn't it possible to write memory-safe code in modern C++?


Very. In fact it’s becoming harder to write non-safe c++.

Stuff like nullptr has been in the spec for a while, unique_pointer and other stuff has worked its way in too.

And Rust has plenty of ways to turn memory into Swiss cheese. Anyone who does not actively acknowledge unsafe and the fact you can embed C into rust is delusional.


> It's becoming harder to write non-safe c++.

It's becoming harder if you understand those features and use them correctly, on top of your knowledge of unsafe C++. Even then those are opt in, and it still takes a tremendous effort. I don't trust anyone using C++ correctly. It's just hubris at this point. You can use unsafe and call C but that's a smaller surface area to audit. Most big companies are transitioning to Rust for a reason. Some big companies were trying to replace C++ even before Rust was a thing.

Why make a C++ browser now? What's the point?


Who says they don't?

Edit: never mind, just noticed it.


Is this "US timezones" or "US only"?


> we work as a distributed team and accept remote applicants for work within the United States


Location is "Houston / US" which I read as looking for US residents.


Installing LineageOS does not imply losing access to Google services and the Play Store.


Banking applications complain regardless.


Not in GOG, for some reason.


GOG doesn't have a Proton equivalent like Steam does. If you're not familiar with that Proton is like a fancier packaged version of WINE supported by Valve as part of Steam, not a native version of the game.


Ok! Glad to know that it runs well in Proton.

I was looking at buying on GOG since I would let my kids play it, easier to share games without having to mess around with Steam family sharing.

I got 'while True: learn ()' as well as 'Shenzhen I/O'. The former held his interest while the latter is a little difficult for him to engage with.

This looks like it would be on the more engaging side.


You should interview her!
