A new post this time musing of the impacts of libstd in rust being instrumented for code coverage and combining that with crater: xd009642.github.io/2025/11/15/I...

Having 3 blog posts "almost done" for a while and finally getting one out of the door feels somewhat rewarding. Executive function hasn't completely failed me

New blogpost, making CLI tools with Trustfall! Much thanks to @predr.ag for advice/support when writing this! xd009642.github.io/2025/08/18/M...

Wechat and now line. Why is every Asian chat app appalling. Unable to link a foreign number to my account and I end up banned by an automated system as a result. This is ignoring the UI design being very unfamiliar, it's just impossible to use as a foreigner

Made an inaturalist account to identify more animals I see while rice farming. Quite happy that some users already identified some of the animals. Hopefully, I'll managed to get pics of dragonflies and birds of prey - but they've been too fast so far. My account: www.inaturalist.org/observations...

Accepted I can't and won't do everything that pops into my head and making an open project list of things I've found myself wanting (all in rust so far) that don't yet exist: github.com/xd009642/pro...

Had a gig wrap up a little earlier than expected, I should have availability starting July or so. As always: if you need help with Embedded, Rust, or similar things, shoot me a message! If you're a user of postcard, p-rpc, or are interested in the more experimental new ergot: shoot me a message!

Part 2 in making tarpaulin faster: xd009642.github.io/2025/05/20/T...

Two dramatic speedups in a week. Better blog about it xd009642.github.io/2025/05/08/T...

And 2 days later another release with big speedups. This time less being an idiot but using memoization to avoid searching a list for the right profile entry. For projects that bring in a lot of coverage counters this will result in big speedups (polars gets 20x faster) github.com/xd009642/tar...

Cargo-tarpaulin 0.32.4 released with a ~80% speedup of LLVM coverage report processing. Like any speedup that large it's mainly past me doing something dumb than me being smart. github.com/xd009642/tar...

New project, a rust mocking library for websockets. See the announcement post here: xd009642.github.io/2025/03/03/a...

I am once again in a situation where I want something like IBM Rational DOORS (Dynamic Object Oriented Requirements System) but good. Maybe this time I'll code something up...

And the next part of the streaming audio API blog series: the axum server code (1/3)! xd009642.github.io/2025/01/20/s...

New small type of post, going through contributing a small PR to a project I use: xd009642.github.io/2025/01/15/a...

New social media account and with it a year in review post for 2024! xd009642.github.io/2025/01/06/2...
