Canadians are called american cause they’re in NORTH AMERICA, not cause US has a monopoly on the classification american.

Yes... exactly. dude. you literally just proved my point. India does not have a monopoly on the classification Indian. Holy fuck dude.

thanks for the correction!

Man I really need to learn Crystal. I love the ruby syntax and it's supposed to be really fast right?

haha it's such a dumb solution, but it works. i've seen several others that have done the same thing. The alternatives all sounded too hard for my tired brain.

What’s it called?

They did work collaboratively towards a standard. They just also in parallel worked on their own project, because they know standards can take an indefinite amount of time, so it could have been a decade to get USB C fleshed out, while they had already been working on Lightning in the background.

And did I mention that one could access Hangouts (and its SMS pass through server) from any machine in the world through Gmail?

this was actually one of the things I hated the most about it. It doesn't really matter what features you provide when the product is so bad it can't even make up for it. I had no clue it had sms passthrough, it was just a shitty chat/voice client integrated into my email client, slowly making things slower and slower the more they added.

Apple has been a member of the USB-IF (the group that creates USB specs) since at least 2009. https://www.loopinsight.com/2009/07/24/palm-reports-apple-to-the-usb-implementers-forum/

Kotlin jvm is extremely stable, not sure what issues you could be encountering there. The API has been guaranteed to be stable for years and years now. And sure, the other stuff has experimental functions, but they’re clearly marked.

haha yeah I already created the repo with that name 😂 it's perfect for a testing library.

@Ategon@programming.dev is working on tagging, but I wouldn't expect it anytime soon. It's a big feature.

I completely understand! I don't expect people to trust random strangers on the internet, so I was just commenting with information about me so that others would know what was up.

But it really doesn’t matter what I think, what matters is where the prominent rust front figures choose to hang out, I hope that will include one of the lemmy forums.

I completely agree. Thanks for responding back and I'm hopeful that the Rust community is able to create a new space that we're able to participate in, wherever that may be.
