    Also I don't understand how the foundation and core lang team remain this far out of touch with the community. It reminds me of the async-await debacle, where the core lang team had a very strong idea of how they wanted to do it, did some polling, it was not the most popular solution by far, and then they went ahead with it anyway. That's aside from the problems with Pin structures used to implement async that introduced a whole slew of memory safety bugs. **The language itself does so many things right, but jeez sometimes they really do some asinine stuff.*

      The `.async` syntax makes sense to me (I wish they'd done the same for `&` and `*` to make it possible to always read left-to-right), but I think `Future` (should have separate methods for starting, polling, and registering a callback, and the callback design should be a language feature) and `Pin`/`Unpin` (should have dedicated language support, including special syntax for manual RVO) are badly designed, I guess out of laziness.

I assume that by the "core politics", you mean the prevention of bullying people, even if they have identities that are not your own (because that's the part that everyone seems to find so controversial). Enforcing simple rules does not demonstrate authoritarian behavior, and that rule is only meant to provide some protection to people who are often targeted in other communities. People see that protection as "shoving queerness down people's throats", because they want to make people's identities a political issue so that they can pretend to be the victim of their own hate. Not being allowed to intentionally target and harass people regardless of their identities isn't authoritarian at all, and it's truthfully harmful to think that way.

Also, I stated at the beginning of my comment that I would be making an assumption, which should be enough to clarify that I simply want to state my opinion on a certain matter which is commonly debated when discussing the code of conduct, and not to take the moral high-ground as you implied. If I did happen to make an incorrect assumption, then I am glad that we agree and it is pointless to continue this argument, as it should not have continued in the first place.
      But I will make another assumption which is that I was actually correct with my first one, which is conceivable once you think about how you are considering my point that minority groups deserve to be protected, to be authoritarian, which is exactly what I was explaining to be untrue in the first place. I am confused as to what you meant from me assuming incorrectly, as you've never actually stated what you meant, just reworded what I was saying.
      And I would like to point out that you've made at least two assumptions about me in your comment, which was literally meant to criticize me for making a single assumption, which is hypocritical to say the least. You could have made even more, but I can hardly make out what your second point was meant to mean due to the tedious grammar and lack of proof-reading.

      Rust is not trademarked for all uses, but for uses related to the programming language. This is very common for trademarks, the problem in this case is how overreaching this is.

    • @riakata
      @riakata Рік тому +11

      Trademarks are restricted and limited by nature. You don't technically even have to register trademarks (it is advisable though) you just have to continue existing and using the mark and more importantly defending it in your limited industry space from misuse. The rust foundation did that and one step too far is the problem here.
      An example is you can certainly trademark the color of rust for a rust remover product and programming language but it is unlikely either company could sue the other for using the rust color in their respective products because no user or consumer would be confused between a metal corrision removal product and a programming language. Logos and styles of website would get slightly more complex as you could cause confusion regardless depending on how exactly you copy the other. Many countries have trademark opposition that also evaluate these kinds of problems on a case by case basis to see if it would actually be confusing or not.

    Origin. Rust is named after the resulting phenomenon of the oxidation of iron. The word 'rust' finds its etymological origins in the Proto-Germanic word rusta, which translates to "redness." The word is closely related to the term "ruddy," which also refers to a reddish coloring in an object.

    For my first Rust project, I was going to write a terminal screen reader. I'm currently using one, Fenrir, that's written in Python. It's great, but I wanted to build something that would work using a single binary, rather than having to deal with Python dependencies, and I was going to eventually add scripting support using something like Lua. I think the language is great, but the fact that they'd even consider a proposal like this scares me off. I get trying to protect your IP, but this is extremely heavy handed, and I have no idea how it even got this far. The hoops you have to jump through just to use their name are insane, and the whole thing about not being able to host events where carrying fire arms is not allowed, demonstrates that the Rust foundation is completely unconcerned with a huge segment of people, in the US at least, and they don't care to be. Even if a programming language's foundation did enforce political positions that I agreed with, the fact that they are getting political at all would make me question the whisdom of using such a language for my projects, as the language itself isn't going to be a neutral tool that I can use to accomplish the goals of my project, and the use of that language implies, even in a minor way, my support of such positions.
    I hope this proposal is inevitably shot down, but I'd still wonder whether something similar or worse might become an issue in the future.

    I hope there's enough push back to change this. I don't see why they can't adopt similar rules to what other programming languages use to protect their IP.

    Funny thing is there seems to be a lot of software being "marketed" as "written/rewritten in Rust", it was becoming a cliche. I guess this policy will certainly change that.

    As someone just getting into software development I was considering choosing Ru$t as my real first language to dive into. These rules do not inspire me to contribute to coding for an overlord that wont even let me speak their name like freaking Voldemort.

    This video would have been orders of magnitude more useful if he had compared these terms to the terms of some other common, comparable languages/projects. For example, to the best of my knowledge-- and I'm not a lawyer, but I have worked with lawyers in this arena before-- no company is ever going to allow people alter or distort their logo. Heck, at the two major software developers I've worked for, you couldn't even customize the logo for your own team, to make like team t-shirts or anything. I also suspect that the bits about needing a code of conduct is probably becoming more and more common (though I'm just guessing, I don't claim to know for sure), partly due to the rapid increase in the use of Zoom. At the company I'm currently at, we had a case where our outreach department helped user groups for our product out in minor ways, and one of those was using our professional business license of zoom to host meetings. Well, some user started screen sharing graphic pornography, talking in sexually explicit terms, pasting links to porn websites in the chat, etc. Our lawyers had to do a non-trivial amount of research, and have outside counsel validate their conclusions, about what our potential liability was, since we had implicitly 'blessed' the user group by providing the zoom call. Now, some of the stuff does sound way out there, like only being able to use their copyrighted marks for a conference if the main topic of the conference is Rust-- that just seems crazy, if I'm hosting a Security conference and I want a half-day Rust track, I should be able to properly publicize that. But the point is, while almost everything he called out seems over-the-top, I actually don't know how much of it is abnormal, vs. how much is true for lots of other software or projects, but no one ever bothers to read the terms, and the terms are only ever enforced on the rare occasion that the trademark owner believes actual brand damage is being done. As an analogy, if you just read the possible side effects of any given medication, and you don't have any baseline or context, you're going to conclude that it's hugely dangerous and that your doctor was insane or actively malicious for prescribing it. It's only once you read through the side effects for 10 other medications that you realize it's mostly just legal cover-your-ass boilerplate. I don't know how much of that is going on with the Rust Foundation, vs. how much of what he covers in this video is legitimately out of whack.
