I'm getting a tad worried about the sheer number of packages suddenly requiring rust.
It's getting harder and harder to avoid having rust forced upon you, even when using gentoo.
@r000t and how is that a problem?
@pomstan I'm concerned that the entirety of the marketing copy for Rust is "it's 100% safe and unhaxx0rable" which imo is going to lead to people not taking care to write secure code, leading to vulnerabilities that have literally nothing to do with memory safety.
@pomstan@xn--p1abe3d.xn--80asehdb @r000t@ligma.pro No one sane believes using the master branch in git is literal slavery and hurting black people with every commit.
Yet here we are, almost getting fired for using master as the default branch name.

@r000t@ligma.pro @bonifartius@qoto.org I generally tab-complete it anyway, they both start with ma. My general issue is breaking things for no real gain. Scripts rely on the name master, and having to rename the branch in a ton of projects when it adds nothing is just pointless.
I'm in favour of change when it actually brings something desirable, but in this context, it doesn't. It's just a bunch of non-programmers telling me I should feel bad.
@bonifartius @tyil main is only 4 characters, honestly the biggest selling point to people who will have to type it all day imo
