  • (sorry for the late response, I have to get in the habit of checking my Lemmy account)

    No, I get that - a stylesheet denotes a class by having a dot. A JavaScript API for adding a CSS class omits this redundancy.

    I was saying that the author might not be wrong to want to avoid the redundancy in rust example as well (since it explicitly mentions CSS classes).


  • I mean, it is not embarrassing for you. In the browser, the CSS’s “native platform”, you add classes, via the JavaScript API, without the dot. It’s not a stupid assumption.

    To have to add the dot in the CSS class name seems a bit of an oversight in the gtkrs API.








  • I don’t mind paying for tools that help me do my job. For several years I even had a personal licence for “all products pack” thing. Their IDEs do a decent job.

    There are better tools for specific things, but overall as an IDE, it’s pretty good and makes you effective. And especially if you have to use Windows, it’s integrating enough tools that you don’t have to mess with the Windows crappy tooling that often.

    That said, it’s still a big fat slow IDE. For a while now I’ve been using neovim my modernized Linux toolkit and for the most part, I’m happier with it then I was with IntelliJ and Goland and the rest. Happier enough to not having a licence for JetBrains any more.

    And recently I’ve looked into Zed. Zed looks pretty neat so far, but it’s still under development. Once things stabilise there, I might commit to it and switch full time to Zed. It’s got a few nice things that I miss from IntelliJ, but it’s way, way more responsive.


    Back on topic: I wanted to say I don’t mind paying for IDEs, if they’re good tools. But this is more of an ideological challenge and I’m always trying to keep myself from overreacting. So while I don’t agree with you in general (“don’t trust paid IDEs”), I might agree with you specifically (“don’t fall for JetBrains’ lure and Microsoft-like tactics”).




  • I don’t know what happened, but since 6.2 rolled out on Fedora a week ago, I’ve had several bugs. At the very day I updated, I had two outright crashes. It happened a few more times since. My keyboard shortcuts don’t work any more. Window layout behaves…odd (haven’t pinned it down yet).

    Just all-around messy upgrade. Am I the only one with problems, though?


  • That still doesn’t look like a very heavy workload. My older box was older then your 6700k and was fine running such stuff.

    Perhaps your limit isn’t the CPU. What storage and ram setup do you have, did you look at that?

    I’ll be honest and say that when I replaced my old crap with 7900x I did feel improvements on occasion, mostly when I really burden the pc. Plus I think having 64 gigs of ram helps there, at my old system I hit the limits sometimes. Not often, but sometimes. Now my new box just laughs at anything I try to do to it.
