I understand nothing of frontend, and never even saw what React looks like, what is this supposed to be? Is it compiler--written in Rust--of React whatever to actual Javacript with DOM calls?
rari is a React Server Components framework with a Rust-powered runtime. It's not a compiler that converts React to vanilla JavaScript—it's a full framework (like Next.js) that runs React applications.
The Rust part is the runtime engine that executes your React code on the server. Think of it as a faster alternative to Node.js for running React Server Components. You still write normal React code, but the server-side execution happens in Rust instead of Node.js, which gives it massive performance gains (46.5x higher throughput than Next.js).
It handles routing, server-side rendering, and serves both server components (rendered on the server) and client components (interactive JavaScript sent to the browser). The output is still HTML + JavaScript that runs in the browser—just generated much faster.
As far as I know yes, but with some minor changes, like the the position to be loaded in memory (`org 0x7c00` for bootloaders and I think `org 0x100` for DOS) and the fact that it needs to be exactly 512bytes to boot.
A bit of a self-promotion, but relevant. I've been working on a TUI feed reader that stores all articles locally in Markdown in a filesystem structure, similar to what Obsidian does, if anyone's interested: https://github.com/CrociDB/bulletty
Yeah, good point. Especially because most of the time our thoughts are a lot more fuzzy than we might think. Having it put words to it will feel like it's "augmenting" or "clarifying" our thoughts, but in reality it might be just controlling it.
That's a topic I actually put a lot of thought, coming from South America living in Europe, I see an extreme contrast in shower habits. In the north of Brazil, people would take 2~3 "cold" showers a day--most people don't even have warm water, because it's over 30 degrees Celsius pretty much at any time of the day, at any time of the year, so you sweat a lot. Now here, I see people are mostly fine with 2~3 showers a week. Sometimes less.
Initially that was a shock for me, until I understood it's a lot related to climate, job, activities, social life, etc, but also because in South America people rely more on the showers for their overall hygiene. They just shower for anything. Ate something too fatty that got your hands and face greasy? Time for shower. In Europe I see people taking more care of their hygiene other ways, like washing themselves, changing underclothes more often, etc.
