Notes

Projects meaningfully sharing two programming languages get 0.5 a point each, even if the split is not exactly half-half.
Two projects are listed under "Multi/Misc/Other" which is opinionated, and some may disagree with.
Three points (5 projects) are assigned to "Unaccounted/Not Available". Two of the projects have no code at all (related to the grant, or otherwise). One project with no published code is (charitably) listed under "Python", however, since the author mentions Python+QT as the choice for implementation.

Where does one even start ?

In any rust project, you start with API docs, and the examples folder if one exists. Just make sure the examples belong to the current version you will depend on, not the master/main branch. The link above is from v0.13.1 for example.

Didn't click on your links. But LEA does this move against any network that may offer anonymization. Don't use Tor hidden services. Don't go near I2P. Stay away from Freenet...etc. This even includes any platform that is seen as not fully under control, like Telegram at some point.

In its essence, this move is no different from "Don't go near Lemmy because it's a Putin-supporting communist platform filled with evil state agents".

Does any network that may offer anonymization (even if misleadingly) attract undesirable people, possibly including flat out criminals? Yes.

Should everyone stay away from all of them because of that? That's up to each individual to decide, preferably after seeing for themselves.

But parroting "think of the children" talking points against individual networks points to either intellectual deficiency, high susceptibility to consent-manufacturing propaganda, or some less innocent explanations.

Apologies if I was presumptions and/or my tone was too aggressive.

Quibbling at No Moderation = Bad usually refers to central moderation where "someone" decides for others what they can and can't see without them having any say in the matter.

Bad moderation is an experienced problem at a much larger scale. It in fact was one of the reasons why this very place even exists. And it was one of the reasons why "transparent moderation" was one of the celebrated features of Lemmy with its public Modlog, although "some" quickly started to dislike that and try to work around it, because power corrupts, and the modern power seeker knows how to moral grandstand while power grabbing.

All trust systems give the user the power, by either letting him/her be the sole moderator, or by letting him/her choose moderators (other users) and how much each one of them is trusted and how much weight their judgment carries, or by letting him/her configure more elaborate systems like WoT the way he/she likes.

Because there isn’t a solution.

This has been discussed and experimented with to death where such networks existed for a long time. Just because you never heard of them or even knew they exist doesn't mean that they don't.

See Freenet/Hyphanet and the three approaches (local trust, shared user trust lists, web of trust) if you want to learn something. The second one worked out the best from a performance and scalability point of view compared to the third.

Not only is IPFS not built on solid foundations, offered nothing new to the table, and is generally bad at data retention, but the "opt-in seeding" model was always a step backwards and not a good match for apps like plebbit.

The anonymous distributes filesystem model (a la Freenet/Hyphanet) where each file segment is anonymously and randomly "inserted" into the distributed filesystem is the way to go. This fixes the "seeder power" problem, as undesirable but popular content can stay highly available automatically, and unpopular but desirable content can be re-inserted/healed periodically by healers (seeders). Only both unpopular and undesirable content may fizzle out of the network, but that can only happen in the context of messaging apps/platforms if 0 people tried pull and 0 people tried to reinsert the content in question over a long period of time.

Generally yes, unless it's the original source of a story.
e-celeb content and news aggregators are never the original source of a story.

That some can and already do that on the video sites they already browse.

People like shorts too, but that doesn't mean Lemmy should be infested with such content.

We went from spam "news sites" to spam videos. Maybe an "original source" policy should be applied by moderators!

They talk too much. But almost none of them actually code or know how to at a good level.

We have someone just like that here.

Koto: a simple and expressive programming language, usable as an extension language for Rust applications, or as a standalone scripting language (koto.dev)

cross-posted from: https://programming.dev/post/23822190

I added this language to my watch list some time ago and forgot about it, until I got a notification about a new release (0.15) yesterday.

I'm someone who is familiar with system languages (C, Rust) and shell languages (Bash, Zsh, ..). But don't have much experience, at a proficient level, with any languages setting in between.

So I gave Koto's language guide a read, and found it to be very well-written, and the premise of the language in general to be interesting. I only got annoyed near the end when I got to @base, because I'm an anti-OOP diehard 😉

I hope this one well start to enjoy some adoption.
