Rust has gained immense popularity for its ability to help developers write robust and efficient code without sacrificing ease of use.

Rust's unique features and design principles grant it several advantages over other programming languages

I don't want praise and ads, I want honest and clear points: what good and what not so good.

By using standard implementation of cryptographic message signing?

Erm. Duplication of code is ok. Removing absolutely every duplicate function is just premature optimization imho.

If you have two different customers with slightly different workflow then go ahead and create two mostly the same functions. When you will have 4 different customers with slightly different workflow, then its a time for refactoring, maybe extract basic same functionality into separate function/object, maybe introduce dynamic workflow using finite automata, maybe extract these functionality to separate modules.. but never do it prematurily.

Imho, sometimes ,removing of duplication very much increases complexity and code became hard to understand and hard to modify.

Im not even 100% sure that API is really bad? Some hairness could be easily explained by performance reasons. You don't want logging to take a massive amount of system resources.

A 6ish% unemployment rate isn’t terrible.

What bothers me is that this number is across industry, its not like people can easily move to other company, because other companies also had layoffs. At least I have this feeling from reading comments from people that can't find job for half a year on HN and reddit.

Do we have a term for combination of enshittyfication and LLM?

Hm, I still not sure about this article lesson.

So, main issue is that users of old version can use new feature, but they should not? On a desktop app? But why they sould not be able to do it in the first place?

I mean idea is good, but situation described in article looks like completely fictitious or incomplete..

If SO supposed to be wiki, then why there no clear way to update the answer with new information? Why only the person that asked the question can mark answer as correct? Clearly some person with more expirience should have possibility to mark answer as correct.

Thats actyally very good point. Our phones x100 or x10K more powerful and complex than computers from 90s, but always works and very-very rarely need reboot.

I suppose they can add source URL of information, so, you can verify correctness. But then I don't get it why we need lying AI if we can get URL in the first place. So, it will work just like any other good search engine.

Sorry if I sound salty, but I still don't get why companies put fake AI engines everywhere.

Honestly I still don't get it. Every dialog with ChatGPT where I tried to do something meaningful always ends with ChatGPT hallucinations. It answers general questions, but it imagine something everytime. I asks for a list of command line renderers, it returns list with a few renderers that do not have CLI interface. I asks about library that do something, it returns 5 libraries with one library that definitely can't do it. And so on, so on. ChatGPT is good on trivial task, but I don't need help with trivial task, I can do trivial task myself... Sorry for a rant.

I just want to add that ChatGPT is a "really fancy snippet repository" that sometimes, randomly lies to you.
