github.com/rust-lang/ru... this is pretty legit

Is there a local first CI yet? It'd be nice if there was a cryptographic way to ensure CI checks were actually ran on someone else's computer. Someone surely is puttin' this "on da chain"

I published a release of coreaudio-rs today. github.com/RustAudio/co.... This release adds tvOS and visionOS and fixes a leak from some of the objc-rust glue. This is a minor release so it'll take a bit to get into cpal and then eventually something like bevy. #rust

It’s becoming clear to me that AI is mostly cool if I have it and no one else does.

That dumb $20k walking robot could do this. Just walking around random fields with no friends in Santa outfit looking sad.

I've been trying out Ollama to self-host LLMs on my archlinux box. The thing I've noticed is how many non-engineers are creating/commenting on the GitHub issues. It kinda feels like the blind leading the blind.

I use signal to text people far more than I use the native sms/iMessage client and I’m yet to see anyone use the “Stories” feature.

In an early iteration of the internet, we built web APIs allowing engineers to write software against it and automate stuff. These days, the best (least bad) way to do this is wire up playwright and an AI agent and pray or something.

Visiting parents and their aging house is an exercise in yak shaving. Replacing a bulb in a yard light, I bumped the siding and it fell off, fixing the siding required some sealant, all the sealant was old and it exploded out the side. Going depth first would mean a dark work site with broken glue.

rust-analyzer now fully uses the new trait solver! 🎉🎉 rust-analyzer.github.io/thisweek/202...

I really need to keep a notepad of future tweet/skeet/toots. I don't need my recently learned lessons to trigger repercussions in my current situation.

"Watching" smaller dependencies on GitHub has taught me so much useful random crap. Basically any vim plugin or non-mainstream repo I use, I follow.

When constructing tuple structs, you can use curly braces with integer keys. These are identical: let x = MyType(1, “hello”, true) let x = MyType{1: “hello”, 0:1, 2:true};

Days since I've superglued my fingers together: 0

Protip, in #rust, when you're trying to find the caller for a `Impl From<(some, annoying, tuple)> for Foo`, just comment out that `From` trait impl and you'll find the compiler error where it's called. It's usually some `Into::into()` call. I do wish this was a feature in rust-analyzer though.

When I see the use of any “this” in code I know things are getting ratchet.

I didn’t know my relatives had #rustlang art.

"The darkness persists, but so do I"

“I’m more of an AI vegan”

Death, taxes and DNS problems.

I really dunno how people bought faminine products for their spouses before phones. There’s like 100 different products in this aisle and I’m doing a binary search by sending photos to my wife.

We just merged the initial trait solver migration PR into rust-analyzer 🎉 Thanks a ton to Jack for their tremendous work! We'll pause our (stable) releases for a bit in case of major usability regressions but please give the pre-release a spin on your projects! github.com/rust-lang/ru...

Maybe `dd` from a 1.8TB single disk to a 16TB mirror pair of disks wasn't the best first step. I'm feeling quite lazy though. Perhaps I should drink beer, play video games (off the 1.8TB disk) and then run `dd`.

I want adblock but for internet rumors without a source. For that matter, I want a social media slider for "probably true to no idea". Like, if someone re-posts a claim that's not verified too many times, they show up less. Oh wait, I just re-discovered the "For you" feed on other apps.

"Soon you too can be a yaml engineer"

It's been so long since I used `sed` that I forgot some of the syntax. Like, I had to relearn `sed -i 's:foo/bar:baz:'`. It's probably a good thing that I'm not doing as much editing with regular expressions.

A few weeks ago, I gave a local talk titled "From Open Source Contributor to Employment". Unrelated to that talk, this person proved it in much harsher conditions turso.tech/blog/working...

I've had to look up the definition of unilateral multiple times in the last 4 days as I keep questioning headlines.

Maybe Friday should “work from bar” day.

It would be so nice if I could ssh to things via LTE/5G tethering.

I regularly wonder if I would recognize (remote) coworkers if I walked by them out on the street randomly. I don't believe I would.

The irony of a blog post about dark/light mode support in markdown is that the post itself doesn't handle dark/light mode - github.blog/developer-sk...

Maybe having a stable stock market is over rated? It's just so much fun to randomly look at the S&P500 have 5% sways.

It's an honor to have rustc panic on me this fine day. I think I've only had this happen one other time in the last 7 years. If I wasn't using a nightly toolchain from november 2023, I'd look into filing a bug report.

Do other people talk about personal finances in startup terms? Talking to my wife... "At our current burn rate we are good for X amount of time."

Ahhhhh, it’s out! blog.rust-lang.org/2025/02/20/R... #Rust2024 has a ton of small wins that add up to a big usability improvement. It’s not quite a 2018 Edition level jump (what is?) but it’s a *significant* shift in everything from unsafe to async. Time to get `cargo fix`-ing!

Today I successfully ran `cargo run --target x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu` for an X11 GUI application inside an arm 64 virtual machine on an M1 Macbook Pro. I know, kind of a big deal.

Shout out to @adehohum.bsky.social, the abitrary self types feature for #rust has been steadily coming along! Look at all this (a link to 13 PR's): github.com/rust-lang/ru.... I'm excited!

Hmm. Maybe I should go buy like 100 lbs of coffee. It's my understanding that one of Colombia's major exports is coffee.

I continue to use my one-armed father as a scapegoat for my (two handed) inability to tie a tie. Thanks for the joke at the formal activities dad!
