China is doubling down on Linux as trust for Microsoft erodes. in c/[email protected]

Huawei is not the only one. Almost all software companies have some KPI that employees are farming. (speaking from experience here)

It's probably because those with decision making authority have no idea what open source is and how it works.

That being said, China is a huge contributor to open source. For example Huawei and Alibaba are among top kernel contributors.

Specs look good. I wonder which distros will support RISC-V now?

Which Matrix clients are you using and why? (lemmy.ml)
 

I managed to convince my friends to give Matrix a try. Among us we span almost all platforms. Any ideas on what clients to use would be much appreciated.

Rust equivalent for Python's shelve? (lemmy.ml)
 

Hello all, I'm learning Rust after years of programming mainly in C/C++.

Python has a very neat shelve library: https://docs.python.org/3/library/shelve.html It's basically a dict (hash table), but is located on disk instead of memory. It's great for easy persistence and also for working with massive objects that won't fit into memory.

Is there anything similar for Rust? I could not find any, but I'm still learning Rust and could have missed it.

This is great for moving RISC-V to mainstream. Pine64 makes great hardware.

Reddit is getting worse and worse. Not sure what happened, but it started losing it's way around 2014-2015.
