Dumb Idiot RetardI thought it was stuck for a minute. It's an anemic computer, but there's no way the webserver was taking ALL DAY to compile rust. Then I looked closelier. Horrified, rocking in the fetal position, vomiting. YOU HAVE TO COMPILE EACH PREVIOUS VERSION TO COMPILE THE NEXT ONE. IT'S BEEN COMPILING TEN DIFFERENT VERSIONS OF RUST ALL FUCKING DAY AND THERE'S NO END IN SIGHT. WHO CAME UP WITH THIS FUCKING HORSESHIT? ARE RUSTACEANS ALL TOILETLICKING PASTE-EATING HELMET-WEARING SHORT-BUS-RIDING INBRED CLOWNS?
@Pawlicker@tyler@graf@idiot@sun That's also it's single biggest issue. The binaries are huge, because everything is statically linked. At least the runtime could have been dynamically linked. Technically it now supports building shared libraries, but nobody really uses that.
But the nice tradeoff of that is easy cross-compiling.
