Did anyone had a situation after entering the portal that it didn't teleport you, but you were in some different space with purple color and you had to move forward to be teleported? I had this once on the DM2 map. I tried to repeat this, but I never succeeded.

Why I Left Rust 3 years ago

Do you mean memelang?

The person who forked that language didn't have any experience regarding languages/compilers before that fork. Later he tried to create BrainFuck like an interpreter and some unspecified lang parser/lexer.

Recently there were a few commits in this language after 3 weeks of silence. It's a vanity project of one twitch influencer.

No. Recently I started to use RSS reader again and I subscribe to blogs that I see valuable.

Tech twitter is terrible - doom scrolling to find something useful. Too much vim/tailwind related bs.

I think it was in Masters of Doom - Carmack was dreaming about a metaverse build on Quake 1.

The game can be a starting point.

I would say that Fortnite is 100x better starting point for the metaverse than what Meta did - the game engine that looked like a 2009 product.

I have tremendous respect for Mozilla. Firefox is my primary browser since the beginning.

But I think that the greatest thing that they created is Rust.

Twitter is dying 3 years ago

If you use it occasionally you didn't notice: - not working notifications - broken feeds - random delays in loading the page

Well, I think that criticism is valid. The thing is that there is no good alternative. Elon can break a lot of things and people still will be there.

If it's from TechCrunch, than it must be true ;)

But seriously, there is no good alternative on this market at this moment yet.

I don't think that this company will die in a predictible future.

They are too large to be innovative. Internally they are paralyzed by processes, management, and burned-out programmers who had ideals a few years ago and now are tired of the internal system.

But Google is a rich company that can buy innovative startups and acquires innovative technology whenever they want.

I think it will be key for their survival.
