Learn to read canonical diffs. It is the standard and will get you further than any new tool

Neat idea but you could build this with a fraction of the complexity by ditching sqlite and duckdb for your native file system and rg/grep/gawk with equivalent performance


There’s also notmuch with various frontends which will let you index and search colossal mail accounts

https://notmuchmail.org/frontends/


grep with equivalent performance? i highly doubt that. my mailbox has 2.6M emails: running grep through millions of files if you use maildir or a similar format takes forever. likewise running grep on a 7.6GB large mbox file takes more than a minute.

on the other hand in supmua (which inspired notmuch) the same search takes seconds.


Why are people using rust to build web apps


Why wouldn't we? It's a fantastic language with great tooling, top tier performance and minimal footprint


[flagged]


Some Rust proponents, but certainly it's obvious not all of them, or not even a meaningful majority.

Which is to say this despicable act has absolutely no bearing on the language and its ecosystem, so bringing it up is irrelevant, and therefore those downplaying it are not necessarily in favor of the act.

I hope that logic is self-evident.


First of all, this is not a web app.

Second, what should I use if I want a small binary with no dependencies and low CPU/RAM usage?

I could’ve used Go, but once you know Rust Go’s existence almost stops making sense :)


Rust + Axum + SQLx has been a total game-changer for me in terms of productivity developing web-based Postgres apps. I like the tooling and the libraries are great.


Looks really cool, will definitely be trying it out. Do you have any screenshares or demo midi you can share? And is there any way to use a text based notation rather than a piano roll?


Why? Just because it’s in rust doesn’t make it a better product


Heartbreaking. They were a pioneer and laid the foundation for countless artists over the last 20 years. Especially in the early 2010s, their products like Massive played a key role in shaping what modern electronic music would eventually sound like. Ever since they got acquired and merged with izotope, they’ve been spiraling. Another textbook example of how private equity destroys innovative companies.


Someone never read their shell’s manpages


I certainly did and do. Not interested in having endless configurations every time I being a new OS.


Love the powerful simplicity, nice work


Really clever, nice work. Love the minimal but polished approach you’ve taken


Thanks very much! A minimal approach is indeed one of the goals.


I really think we need to take a good look at Tux, and consider a redesign. For something as symbolic as him, I really think that we need to adjust his shading, such that he is at least 50% black. His current appearance is a literal example of white supremacy, and this should never be tolerated.
