Actually, at least Zubat doesn't have Defense Curl... 😒
Rust 1.94.0 has been released! 🌈 🦀✨
A few highlights are array_windows() and element_offset() on slices, Peekable::next_if_map(), LazyCell::get and friends, and the new `include` key in config.toml to include other toml files!
Check out the blog post for details: blog.rust-lang.org/2026/03/05/R...
Repel, but just for Zubat, out of spite.
Picture of Marjane Satrapi alongside a quote from her. The quote reads: The world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you. And our governments are very much the same... - Marjane Satrapi, Iranian-French graphic novelist
Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.
My wife and I stumbled upon it on our visit as well and had to go inside. Such a cool building!
Typo git reset as git rest and suddenly become enlightened.
”The distinction between programmer and user is reinforced and maintained by a tech industry that benefits from a population rendered computationally passive. If we accept and adopt the role of less agency, we then make it harder for ourselves to come into more agency.”
What... would that actually do? Like, how would that work? 🤔
Would that require a web-based Minecraft client? A specialized server?
I probably have a decent amount of prerequisite reading (unfamiliar with WebTransport) to understand what this would look like in practice, but I'm genuinely curious.
If we actually want to get serious about software we need to specify the behavior adequately to satisfy our requirements. Then we can throw the inference engines at it and not look at their output. Until then, vibe coding is dereliction of duty.

🚅 Trains are cool as hell. You're telling me I can
• Sit in a comfy seat
• Stand & stretch when I want
• Walk around
• Read a book/play video games
• Use Wi-Fi
• Get something to eat or drink
• Meet new people
• Go as fast or faster than a car
AND I don't have to drive or park? Sold.
IDK if it matters, but I meant this in the context of prose. There's nuance left off the table for a pithy little comment like "AI;DR", but broadly, if you didn't have the time to dig in as a writer I think it's reasonable for a reader to spend about as much effort reading in as you did generating.
This is why I'm appreciating ai;dr as a sibling to the usual tl;dr.
This is already true for me.
simply, more OSS projects should DO THIS.
OSS is a long playing game, if not forever. but we are people behind those projects, and we need good rest and balance to keep things sustainable. I am super happy to see this move and looking forward to see how it could change how OSS works for all of us.
Yikes. What a miserable way to be. 🤮
I'm in this picture and I don't like it. I've regularly got hundreds of tabs open. What I really need is a way to organize the information and bookmarks just ain't it.
So uh Ring just up and said they've got a huge centralized private surveillance network they can leverage all at once huh
Trump didn't go to the Super Bowl? Seahawks have the chance to do the funniest thing and not go to the White House.
Yet another @ratatui.rs project. 😎🦀
Loved that halftime show. 🇵🇷🎶🏈
what you want is an MCP. oh wait have you tried installing a skill? no you don't have an agents,md file. actually what you want is a plugin. have you tried agent orchestration? you have gotta try hooks.
Generating code was never the goal. The goal was to solve problems. I tried my best to avoid writing code by leveraging existing solutions or reframing the problem.
Writing code was always a last resort and a liability. If I was going to write code, then I was going to do it right.
It's wild to me that agentic coding with things like Claude or Copilot CLIs is what it took for people to finally start investing in tmux.
Incredible work, as always. Thank you! 🙏

I'm still writing code the hard way. I'm slow. I like to think critically about every line of code and fiddle with variable names until everything looks right. I treat code as a liability and try to ship only what's necessary.
It's hard to imagine writing code any other way.
It also makes it more clear to me why I'm only mildly troubled by its use in writing code (with significant human oversight), but find applications to the arts so abhorrent. My employer needs my code to have utility ASAP. I'd rather wait for meaningful human connection in the art I experience.
This writing by @stuffwithstuff.com puts to words the feelings I've wrestled with for a while with respect to generative AI. It highlights the tension between its use at work and in my personal life. It's hard to deny its utility in the former and I crave meaning in the latter that it can't give.
