Making the case that Cargo features could be improved to alleviate Rust compile times
Two common criticisms of Rust development are the long compile times and the large number of dependencies that end up being used in projects. While people have drawn connections between these issues before, I've noticed that most discussions don't end up talking much about a specific tool that ostensibly should

Several moons in the outer Solar System have oceans encased beneath an ice shell. If the ice shell thins, ocean pressure decreases. Modelling shows that on Mimas, Enceladus, and Miranda, the ocean can boil. On larger bodies, instead, compressional forces form tectonic features.

Content warning: open source whinging

Ugh why is this always the way. I evaluated like 25 authentication servers for a small scale web project — I do want to support things like OIDC and Passkeys, so this is not something I really want to make myself like the old days of “use crypt() on the passwords and just make a simple database”.
5 of them are just dev mode garbage that will never see the light of day as a thing people use.
2 of them are home network nonsense for people who want enterprise login for their family, but where One Nerd controls the whole user-list.
15 of them are freemium "open source" where they withhold features for their enterprise tier and make them so unfortunately difficult to deploy, all requiring postgresql databases and a complex containerization setup and helm charts and oh so much.
and then there's kanidm, which is great except its opinions make it completely unusable for a community project, it's really more trying to fit the ‘enterprise unix authentication' space. Kudos to them for communicating it but it's the wrong tool, even if it is really good.
And then there's rauthy. Which is exactly what I want, well built and delightful, uses a lightweight embedded database, and even has a peer-to-peer sync for scalability. But customizing it is going to be a lesson in building it from source repeatedly, and its configuration is just a bit strange, and its frontend is extremely Backend Developer Wrote A Web UI. I guess I got a second project. And maybe a third to make debian packages of it.
Yet it really is the best of the options _by far_.
NLNet supported projects continue to punch above their weight class.

If you still develop your software with the “--my-next-gpu-wont-be-nvidia” mindset you’re part of the reason so many people have the “--my-next-os-will-be-windows” mindset.
Stop being a clown and understand that when choosing a GPU people ask themselves about features, performance, quality and price. They don’t ask themselves “will this gpu work with this shitty wm library?”.

My general experience from looking at a lot of RTL between work and open hardware stuff is that ASIC people seem to be more heavy users of advanced systemverilog features (structs, interfaces, etc) than FPGA people.
I know a lot of FPGA tools historically didn't have great support for these things but unless you're still using ISE or Vivado 2017 there's no excuse.
Anyone else see this trend too?
