I'm officially employed again! Starting on Labor day (join a union!) I'll be a member of @rustnl@fosstodon.org's maintainers team

I'll be maintaining the Rust compiler, working on Rust tooling, and ensuring that the Rust community stays wonderful and welcoming!

This gem stays evergreen.

> Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place. Therefore, if you write the code as cleverly as possible, you are, by definition, not smart enough to debug it.

Just submitted a talk summary, it starts with

> Rustaceans love it when their compiler tells them "No"

The rest of the talk isn't about all the nuance (or lack thereof) in that statement, but always seems relevant to repeat @ekuber@hachyderm.io 's statement

There's a playtest for a game written in Rust, that has various automation things, has wasm plugin support, is 2d topdown in space, and multiplayer on top.

And you know what? It goes from the steam "start game" button to finish loading a game in under 5s where most of it is me finding the right place to click.

@noboilerplate the same goes for my code. If I first have to explain it to a machine... I'm not doing anything different from explaining it to a machine (the compiler)

@MicroSFF Thanks. That makes sense. I assumed it was something about LLMs wrt the lying. I didn't realize it was about the artificial intelligence from another timeline studying our development, but I assumed sth about the robot was off

@killercup oh neat, using signed integers will produce much better assembly than unsigned ints checking against 2^31

@cr1901@mastodon.social a horrible hack that you could apply to structs. It made the field an unsafe field, and it changed the layout of the struct so that even if it's field was a u8, the only legal values were e.g. 50 to 100

@bugaevc@floss.social @Mara@hachyderm.io So... || is just a postfix closure with no ., conditionally invoked on the lhs producing a failure value (right now only false is supported 😀)

@davidrevoy@framapiaf.org the preview rendered in signal and discord will only show the last image. Which works out really well for the d20 comic but may not for others
