Hare Propaganda 🐰 @hare@qoto.org

@drewdevault I've recently packaged one small Hare project for Alpine and made a little contribution to it. my main language currently is Rust. impressed with how that project just builds instantly, weighs this little, *and* goes this fast through my filesystem. 4 seconds build including tests?? if I wrote it in Rust, even clap alone wouldn't get compiled in that time.

Anyway the upstream master branch of rc builds with the gaia branch of Hare's stdlib now, mostly works but there are, well, bugs with fork(2)

Near term priority is narrowing down the robustness of the infrastructure, namely by implementing free and dealing with more error handling cases, so the system can run indefinitely and deal with short-lived processes and such. The process manager also needs to be refactored so that it appears in the list of processes itself and can be managed as such
