cfg_select! looks good. cfg_if! always added so much boilerplate that it rarely reduced complexity, even though it offered a valid solution for when you had a complex condition in one branch and then not() that in the other. It was also annoying that you had to add a dependency for those rare cases.

We did also move away from cfg_if!, though, because IDE tooling would mostly just quit working within the cfg_if! macro call. Will have to see, if that's better with this compiler built-in, or if the IDE tooling gets updated to support that well.

Which exactly?

Next step is to make it fully native, without any web view

It’s weird. Language support is weirder. Zed devs decide what language constructions are acceptable, and which are not.

Also, the dev's github profile pic looks like a 12 year old lol

Yeah whatever, I'm not going to spend my time to see which bugs exactly they have all over.

The speed was really noticeable, like when people talk about the higher FPS on a game.

But I also tried to change some configurations that weren't saved,

Also I couldn't make the address bar work so that I can click on a folder name and see what is in there. Sometimes I don't have a project or folder open only just a file, and I still want to navigate back on the folders, which I didn't manage to do.

I don't know it was a bit cursed experience, but I still want to give it another try maybe in a year or so.

That’s… very interesting. I’ve been using it for ages and haven’t had those sorts of issues.

FWIW, it’s more or less just as configurable as VSCode and friends, so there’s probably a setting somewhere you can change to correct the behavior you’re having frustrations with.

I tried to use zed but it was doing something weird undoing the cargo format. Also sometimes keept files locked causing me other problems.

I’ve come to prefer zed myself

Off-topic: The switching between light background for text and dark background for code is stupid and annoying. Either use dark for both, or light for both (so I can apply my custom inverse shader without hurting my eyes or breaking the reading flow). This back and forth switching is almost as stupid as using a background color with middle lightness, which I've also seen.

This has been irking me for a while, so I decided to randomly whine about it now.

As for the blog content. It's a weird collection of clippy bugs which covers basically the first half of the blog, then a couple of miri bugs and limitations. Then it finally gets to actual rust compiler stuff which just involves cfg_select (a nice to have) and c_variadic support (ffi use-case). So, IMHO, that title is a bit over the top, and it almost does a disservice to a lot of actual good and interesting work that is being done.

Ooh, it does look useful for sure, I'll have to try it 👀

Interesting - I think this minimal solution I actually wouldn't mind, but I'd be concerned about introducing syntax for callers. Keeping it as a private construct in libraries seems fine though.

What does time control of 120 minutes mean? That they have 120 minutes per turn?

@onlinepersona Given that this subject was already brought up, and regular people from the project said that their is interest for removing the dependency to github (but not leave it, Microsoft is one of the top contributor), I assume that some people would be willing to help the integration a working prototype.In case you need it:rust-lang.zulipchat.com/

Oh really? 🤔 Every project on Github that I've tried to contribute to from outside has been resistant to it. But maybe I could give cargo.io a try. Zulip you say? Interesting choice... requires creating yet another account since it doesn't seem to be federated...

@onlinepersona I'm quite certain that if you have a working solution, visible somewhere on internet, you can ping them on zulip/discourse to ask someone to pull your code.

The final starts in 5 minutes.

I find it ridiculous that they started with github in the first place, but who am I to judge. It is ironic that in order to contribute a non-github solution, you still need to create a github account to make a PR.

@onlinepersona @Miaou for github they said for years that they would welcome patches but so far nobody came, nor payed someone to do it for them.
