Insider throws cold water on idea that Aaron Rodgers could reunite with former Packers star in N.Y.
Even before the Jets acquired Aaron Rodgers, the team was busy adding many of the quarterback’s former teammates from Green Bay. With Rodgers expected to be fully healthy heading into the 2024 campaign, the organization is once again expected to pursue some of the veteran’s preferred targets. However, one major name that may be unrealistic is Davante Adams. Tony Pauline of Sportskeeda.com writes that an Adams-to-Jets move isn’t “remotely possible.” For starters, the Raiders have no …

#RustLang / Cargo support in #Gentoo has received a lot of optimizations over time.
Does that sound like a good thing? I'm afraid it isn't: it's just saying how *bad* the ecosystem is, that we have to keep adding hacks to make it even remotely usable.
For a start, we immediately gave up on packaging the dependencies separately. After all, we're talking about a humongous effort, creating thousands of Gentoo packages whose only purpose would be delivering sources that would be only linked statically into executables. Lot of effort, lot of space waste, no gain. Instead, every Rust package carries a huge list of crates it needs, and a humongous Manifest listing yet another set of copies of checksums for these crates.
We are strongly relying on mirroring crates on Gentoo mirror infrastructure. Why? Because crates.io is uselessly slow. On top of that, Portage normally does fetching in series, so grabbing hundreds of crates takes half an eternity. In fact, I've even made #PyCargoEbuild use aria2 to fetch new crates from crates.io in parallel to work around this.
I have recently added a hack to unpack crates in parallel, because even unpacking all of them is awfully slow. Ironically, the crates that seem to take most of the time to unpack are these responsible for Windows support.
PyCargoEbuild also has a function to repack all dependent crates into a single tarball that we redistribute. Why? Because some packages have so many dependencies that listing them all makes ebuilds and their Manifests humongous. For every package like that, *all* Gentoo users suffer a significant growth in repository size, even if they are never going to use the package in question. So instead of listing and fetching crates, we fetch a ready-made crate tarball. Which is also much smaller than all crates combined, and therefore faster to fetch and unpack (though I haven't compared this to parallel unpacking).
Oh, perhaps I should have mentioned first that Cargo is one of the few ecosystems that simply cannot be packaged without creating dedicated tools to prepare and update the ebuilds.
But yeah, Rust is awesome.

'I wouldn’t even blink on that!' Amid contract talks, Jerry Jones makes his intentions clear to continue with Dak Prescott despite multiple people wanting Cowboys to draft a quarterback

'I wouldn’t even blink on that!' Amid contract talks, Jerry Jones makes his intentions clear to continue with Dak Prescott despite multiple people wanting Cowboys to draft a quarterback
Out of all the questions that Dallas Cowboys fans had headed into free agency following their painful first-round exit to the Green Bay Packers, ‘Will Dak Prescott return as our QB?’ was not one of them. As the quarterback heads into the final year of his four-year deal worth $160 million, there is a lot of speculation concerning his future. Jerry Jones had iterated during the season that the Dallas Cowboys aimed to offer Dak Prescott a long-term extension which would lock him in for the fo…
