I had a dream: AInux • Packages are prompts • Install = generate + test + sandbox locally • Output = unique binary tuned to you No apt. Just prompts. Shipping tarballs? Shipping intent!

When are they rewriting Unix `tee` in Rust? It’s only 350 lines of code. 🦀 Seems to me like the easiest way to achieve memory safe tee everywhere. 🙃

Friday marks my last day at Woven by Toyota, wrapping up an incredible five-year run. I’ve learned a ton and had the privilege of working with truly wonderful people—thank you for the trust and opportunities. Now it’s time to shift into a new gear ⚙️. Exciting times ahead!

discourse.llvm.org/t/2025-asial... AsiaLLVM agenda is out!! It looks like it’s going to be good!

Ok I found a HUGE plot hole: does Jesus ever even use the gold, frankincense and myrrh?!?

Array indices start at 0 in C, but start at 32 in F.

`make` and `cmake` have `ache` in common. Coincidence?

Student travel grants for AsiaLLVM are available. This is an opportunity to meet LLVM developers from across the LLVM community in person, and discuss compiler development in Tokyo. Deadline is March 31. See post for details. discourse.llvm.org/t/2025-asial...

Is…. Wikipedia just casually foreshadowing a prophecy about DOGE… ? 👀

C++26 is feature complete, read all about it here: www.reddit.com/r/cpp/commen...

It's going to take a bit more time for the collaborative trip report to make r/cpp, so here's an explanation on what happened with C++ profiles, their relevance to safety/security, and why this is a great outcome for quality of the feature and speed of delivery.

Join our Tokyo C++ Meetup on “Abstractions for Low-Level Programming”, featuring @lefticus.bsky.social ! Learn how to balance performance & complexity and more. ✅ Date & Time: February 20, 2025, 6:30-8:30 pm (JST) 👋 RSVP by February 13th at 12 pm! peatix.com/event/4273915

C++’s legacy is C. One hard aspect is how file-based its build model is. It tried to change with modules, but arguably isn’t there. But now, C++ is considering how to fix many issues including security and will introduce an enterprise ready solution: - pro files - semipro files - free tier files

Baking pro-tip for PL enthusiasts: put some chicken stock in your bread recipe, it’ll help the bread rise. See, it’s the coq proof assistant.

Well, not anymore -- not with my patented POWER COMMENT technique! godbolt.org/z/nEqhbhbse

Java: write once, run anywhere. Me: wrong once, run anywhere.

Went to a Louise Bourgeois exhibit. Ouch.

Me, to wife: you ready for this? I don't think you're ready... OK here goes... gremolatte. It's a latte, but with chopped parsley, lemon zest, and garlic. Wife: WHY ARE YOU... WHY??? WHY TELL ME THIS?

This store, wishing us “what a furry Christmas”, has an IKEA pop-up store with a bucket full of BLÅHAJs, ¥999 each (less than $10). I will not be taking questions.

Our weekly podcast episode is out! Chris and I did our thing! 🤓

You know how we all have a friend (call them “X”) who says stuff, and then a friend chat titled “shit X says” ? @blelbach.bsky.social is friend X. 🤭

Fuji is pretty. 🗻

@tabatkins.com you should be friends with @hanicka.net she’s cool and also makes serious fun of Bryce (who is still stuck in the bad place).

Bluesky is starting to feel like ye olde twttr

C++ community the good part go.bsky.app/FNrpknb

Good news everyone! The C++ committee just adjourned and decided that the syntax for reflection would be a double caret: ^^ Also known as operator unibrow 🤨 You heard it here first, operator unibrow is (likely) coming to C++26. Now, all the programming fonts need a new ligature…

Every compiler should have support for its own special anachronism as an opt-in. (from CCES 2.9.0 C/C++ Compiler Manual for SHARC Processors)

I've kicked off a starter pack of LLVM contributors/developers on Bluesky under @llvmweekly.org. Just let me know if I've missed you! Thanks to @chandlerc.blog for the friendly nudge

I went to this amazing Pokémon art exhibit in Azabudai Hills: they commissioned a variety of artists to make art about Pokémon, in their own style. ポケモンxエ芸

Who among us hasn’t archived an active slack channel with thousands of people in it? I wouldn’t call it an accident 😆

Proposing that C++ acknowledge that there are exactly 8 bits in a byte. I’d love feedback, especially from embedded / DSP folks who think this is a terrible idea. isocpp.org/files/papers...

One of the things I like about living in Tokyo is stumbling into things like this. Hermès in Azabudai hills sponsored an art event, one part was this amazing musician. 10 minutes, I was smiling the entire time! ☺️ youtu.be/u9lkO5aaXds?...

Given the Android team’s findings that buggy code has a half life where bug rate goes down the older the code is, we could write less code… or we could revive Symbian/BlackBerry/Windows Phone to have well-baked code! Vintage retro compute? Nah, I’m into low-background Cesium-137-free source code!

You’ve heard of “founder mod”, but have you heard about “founder rem”?
