I've been going through this book after looking for something that would help me learn more about some of the common design patterns and practices used in Rust. I think for people who come from an OO, C++, Java, python, ect. background this book is especially helpful because the author gives side by side examples on how some of the ideas in OOP translate to Rust and it's functional design patterns. (And how they don't). Anyways, for me it's been really helpful, I thought others might find it helpful as well.

Programming @programming.dev paequ2 @lemmy.today FUTO License, an alternative to Open Source™
Source First License 1.1: https://gitlab.futo.org/videostreaming/grayjay/-/blob/master/LICENSE.md
This is a non-open source license. They were claiming to be open source at one point, but they've listened to the community and stopped claiming they were open source. They are not trying to be Open Source™.
They call themselves "source first". https://sourcefirst.com/
They're trying to create a world where developers can make money from writing source first software, where the big tech oligarchy can't just suck them dry.

Programming @programming.dev PoisonedPrisonPanda @discuss.tchncs.de database greenhorn
hi my dears, I have an issue at work where we have to work with millions (150 mln~) of product data points. We are using SQL server because it was inhouse available for development. however using various tables growing beyond 10 mln the server becomes quite slow and waiting/buffer time becomes >7000ms/sec. which is tearing our complete setup of various microservices who read, write and delete from the tables continuously down. All the stackoverflow answers lead to - its complex. read a 2000 page book.
the thing is. my queries are not that complex. they simply go through the whole table to identify any duplicates which are not further processed then, because the processing takes time (which we thought would be the bottleneck). but the time savings to not process duplicates seems now probably less than that it takes to compare batches with the SQL table. the other culprit is that our server runs on a HDD which is with 150mb read and write per second probably on its edge.

Programming @programming.dev semi [he/him] @lemmy.ml OmniKee: Cross-platform KeePass client built with Tauri, Vue, wasm-pack
omnikee.github.io OmniKee | KeePass Client built with web technologiesA cross-platform, KeePass-compatible password manager
I'm the original author of the Rust keepass crate and wanted to prototype whether it would be possible to build a cross-platform password manager using that crate, Tauri, and Vue.js. It turns out, it is!
I have also come up with a way to compile the
keepass
crate to WebAssembly, so that I can additionally deploy the app to a web browser without any installation needed. See the architecture page in the docs how that is done.The app is now working on 4 / 5 platforms that Tauri supports, with only iOS missing since I don't own an iPhone nor an Apple Developer account.
The feature set is still pretty barebones, but the hard parts of decrypting databases, listing entries, etc. are all working, so I wanted to share the proof-of-concept to gather feedback and gauge interest in building this out further.

Programming @programming.dev Kissaki @programming.dev cookieplmonster.github.io How a 20 year old bug in GTA San Andreas surfaced in Windows 11 24H2After over two decades, players are now forbidden from flying a seaplane, all thanks to undefined code behavior.
My home PC is still on Windows 10 22H2, while my work machine is on Windows 11 23H2, and, to no surprise, neither machine reproduced the issue – Skimmer spawned on the water just fine, creating one via script and putting CJ in a driver’s seat worked too.
That said, I also asked a few people who upgraded to 24H2 to test this on their machines and they all hit this bug.
I have a likely explanation for why Rockstar made this specific mistake in the data to begin with – in Vice City, Skimmer was defined as a boat, and therefore did not have those values defined by design! When in San Andreas they changed Skimmer’s vehicle type to a plane, someone forgot to add those now-required extra parameters. Since this game seldom verifies the completeness of its data, this mistake simply slipped under the radar.
What made the game work fine despite of this issue for over twenty years, before a new update to Windows 11 suddenly challenged this status quo?
