    TLS/SSL and crypto library

    I understand that it looks that way, especially since I just noticed you're a C++ developer who's been trying to learn it recently. But really, when on one hand you have a critical CVE caused by one wrong byte of C source code and on the other hand you have net zero memory-related CVEs in ~1.5 million lines of Rust code compared to 1 CVE per 1k SLOC in their C++ codebase, there's no denial that Rust simply does have the safety advantage for that kind of low level development. Heck, as I always say, memory safety is not a new concept at all, garbage-collected languages have had it for several decades now. But garbage-collected languages weren't fit for projects like the Linux kernel or drivers (at least I assume that is the case), which is why such a thing is exciting and good news in the first place.

  • wldash

    Wayland launcher/dashboard

    I tried wldash and it sometimes builds and when it does, it segfaults with no error messages.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
