I'm working on an app similar to Anki, where I can make my own cards for spaced repetition, organize them by folders and tags, and can run different queries to get groups to practice from. I'm curious what features people wish Anki had. I didn't love it when I tried it.
I want to use my app mainly for language learning, but as a demo, I also have some geography cards that zoom in on a country on the world map, for the front side.
Interesting. My projects would benefit from those more convenient clones into closure captures. The other point where Rc is uglier than, say, Swift, is the explicit `.borrow()` and `.borrow_mut()` everywhere. I wonder if that could also be made more convenient/high-level without sacrificing the control over high performance (like C++) that got me to use Rust in the first place.
Some Clojure fans once told me they thought datalog was better than SQL and it was a shame that the relational DBs all used SQL. I never dug into it enough to find out why they thought that way.
Been trying Rust for some months now. The IDE experience is so much nicer I'm probably sticking with it, but the restrictions on how I write code are still grating on me. I need to learn the language better, but now I still feel like I wanted something more like C++ 2.0 without as much paradigm shift.
I just used Skype the other day. I still find it useful for certain things. Is it that these companies can't maintain a piece of software unless they see a way for it to grow and dominate the world?
