Actually it's been so stable for me for at least a year (not sure when I switched exactly), that this post kind of surprised me, I thought it was > 1.0 already

Hmm interesting, I would've thought that Haskell would rank much higher

Well at least C++ definitely is far away from cool, you can imagine the rest...

Yeah absolutely I quickly get bored playing a computer game or something, but I just love coding (in Rust obviously ^^), creating new things etc.

For reference, I think you want something like this: https://forgefed.org/

I agree with the other comment. It's Open source after all, they could've just crawled the web otherwise.

Private repos on the other hand is a different story.

Like to see so many fellow nix(os)ers here, I think the amount/ratio of nixers here is quite a bit higher than previously on reddit.

I can think of maybe 1 or 2 places where inheritance makes sense, and I haven't encountered these in the last 5 years... (not counting implementing interfaces of course, which definitely makes sense). In all other cases inheritance is IMHO a bad decision (why I think it should not be a thing in programming languages, because it leads someone to write bad code, as it seemed to be the right thing to do...).

I mean I'm being honest I'm a little bit in love with Rust haha, so I can recommend learning that if you haven't yet, it has teached me the most of how to design nice programs/libs (in an efficient manner) and generally just feels nice to write. And a very relevant side-effect: it seems like it has a rapid growth also on the job-market. I really feel that growth in terms of improving library quality and tooling (rust-analyzer is I think really the best language server by now), not the least seeing ever more often something like this: https://opensource.googleblog.com/2023/06/rust-fact-vs-fiction-5-insights-from-googles-rust-journey-2022.html)

Either start applying, it's not that seniors aren't in demand.

Or (additionally) what I personally have found interest in, is just diving more and more into open source. I think this actually improves my abilities (and fun/interest) most (writing and exploring open source). I kinda "feel" that in my workplace as often my opinion is asked and I have something new/innovative to offer (that I've learned from a good open source codebase), that ends up being adapted.
