Comment BTW Rust does not prevent memory leaks (Score 1) 160

What the language prevents (unless you use unsafe code) are memory errors like accessing dangling pointers, double free, etc. It also prevents data races, but not memory leaks.

Comment LibreOffice supports Python integration since day1 (Score 4, Informative) 67

Yeah, I know Excel is vastly superior to LibreOffice Calc, but on this specific topic, LibreOffice Calc has always supported Python integration (via PyUno). It was already supported by Apache OpenOffice before the fork, so how can this be patented with so much prior art?
