After watching this video, I’m tempted to give it a try myself. The idea of swapping out traditional CLI tools for Rust-based alternatives is intriguing, and I’m curious to know if anyone has undertaken such an endeavor.

I’m also on the lookout for dotfiles that primarily feature configurations for Rust tools. I find it both educational and entertaining to explore other people’s configurations. I stumbled upon this repository, but I’m interested in discovering more if possible.

      Microsoft already uses ripgrep in vscode which they distribute as a proprietary build.

          Their own - did you read up on their status reports so far this year?

          What’s your take on freebsd and how development and the system is going. Are they ruined by exploitation?

            Given the long history of companies not upstreaming to BSD (WindRiver, PlayStation, Apple), I would say yea, it’s fairly obvious BSDs are exploited? Imagine for a moment if iOS was GPL.

            You might see short term gains because companies can innovate without giving back but yeah, definitely not the kind of stuff I want to support.

              Exploited? This is what the license is made for. You can take freebsd and do what you like - it’s free as in air, no strings attached other than the licence text.

              You might not understand why the authors use MIT-like licensing

        FreeBSD has over and over again been taken advantage of by companies that haven’t contributed virtually anything back.
