My favorite thing in the entire world is when a company puts all of the settings for their app on a single, scrollable page.

I rarely give this kind of commercial praise, but @railway.com is knocking it out of the park with their infra pricing model. Here's a little case study from deploying my latest web app:

i think the only way for atproto to succeed is for us to show what apps can do when every app sees every other app's public data, and they share an identity system. no technical or sociological argument is as convincing as seeing seamless interop and the lighthearted competitive landscape it unlocks

How many times in one lifetime can my build fail because OpenSSL requires Perl.

When I first started with #RustLang, I had the impression that dynamic dispatch was very costly at runtime, but my actual observation is that experienced rustaceans use dynamic dispatch all over the place, and seem completely unconcerned about it. I now wonder if I should embrace it more often.

#rustlang PSA: you probably don't want #[allow(dead_code)], you probably want #[expect(unused)]

@talibkweli.bsky.social I was reminiscing today about how Jane Doe had such a great verse on Twice Inna Lifetime. I always wonder why we didn't hear more from her after that - I feel like there's a story to be told.

Ruby Central said some really concerning things today. I don’t think they’re representing the situation accurately. andre.arko.net/2025/10/09/t...

Don't be so keen to eliminate boilerplate. Boilerplate is the Zen garden of programming.

I am very pleased to announce that MINI/mini.nvim project finally has its own site: nvim-mini.org . Having to link to txt Neovim help files on GitHub for documentation is mildly inhumane towards the users 😅 But no more! More details here: nvim-mini.org/blog/2025-10...

Quick blogpost about a nice trick I discovered yesterday in #rustlang: that Deref bound I already had? Turns out it's all you need for universal Arc/Box/T APIs. Sometimes the solution is right there! pierrezemb.fr/posts/from-a...

After five years, I'm stepping down as team lead and member of the #rustlang library teams. It's been a wonderful time and a pleasure seeing the teams grow and evolve in these years. 1/4

This only happens to you once

SVG!

@bcantrill.bsky.social I love hearing Oxide employees raving about Asciidoc, because I also love it. But this issue: github.com/asciidoctor/... has been open for 11 years, and I lose my mind every time I think about it. I wonder if asciidocr would consider going rogue on this one point.

How's your day going?

You're not a hostage on LinkedIn. You can just leave at any time. I deleted my account maybe a decade ago, and the only time I ever think about it is when I hear people commiserating about how horrible it is there.

I’m Not a Robot, a game about solving CAPTCHAs, is out now! good luck :) > neal.fun/not-a-robot/

"Yes, son, a lot of school is pointless busywork, but mark my words: You're gonna need SOHCAHTOA."

It looks like #macOS has finally killed the ability to have both drag-lock and three-finger-drag at the same time. I've always hung on by the skin of my `defaults write`, but I think Tahoe makes it truly impossible. Feeling gutted, TBH.

If you don't think network poverty is a real phenomenon, consider the fact that the latest macOS installer requires an uninterrupted 12 GB download.

This is one of the most incredible things I've ever seen.

Love the recent #rustlang split between serde and serde_core, so that crates like camino and iddqd can depend on serde_core and have their builds be parallelized with serde_derive. This is a long-standing issue Released camino 1.2.0 and iddqd 0.3.13 with deps on serde_core!

Didn't have much time to look at this earlier in the week, but catching up on it now: Apple Corp's top-level overview on their "Memory Integrity Enforcement" technology designed to dramatically increase the cost of breaking into next-generation iPhones security.apple.com/blog/memory-...

rust is gonna get a lot better in the next year or so :D rust-lang.github.io/rust-project...

@benw.is @gbj.dev I think you've been more than patient and generous with the LLM guy. I don't think anyone would fault you for banning him at this point. I hate seeing your time taken for granted like that.

Once again thinking about Macaulay Culkin walking into the Parisian café where the wifi password was “Macaulay Culkin” and the owner saying “I knew you’d come here someday”

On the anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic, we thought we'd answer a question that's often asked, "If they raised the Mary Rose, why not raise the Titanic?" Allow our scaled diagram to explain...

I'm still upset vibe coding doesn't mean a fresh cup of coffee and a play list that is hitting while you sling code like a line cook at a Waffle House

@davidbarsky.com Is ersc using the standard git backend for jj? Or is it meant to enable a 'pure' jj experience, with a backend that is not tied to git?

Did you know your MacBook has a sensor that knows the exact angle of the screen hinge? It’s not exposed as a public API, but I figured out a way to read it and make it sound like an old wooden door.

Babe, new candidate for "most unfathomable spatial comparison" just dropped.

i saw someone point out that the selector for time on iphone alarms is actually just a really long list and not truly circular. everything i’ve known is a lie

@support.bsky.team Did you know that if you enter a URL while composing a post, and then delete it, the link preview stays in the post after you send it? In this case there is a link preview of a typo that I corrected.

Actually, Frankenstein is a doctor success at the Venice film festival

David's @rustforgeconf.com talk on the Wild linker was incredible. Definitely sponsor him here: github.com/davidlattimore

Ok, #RustForge: I feel like I'm Late to the party with the early crowd already posting about NZ, but I'm finally about to board! Look forward to meeting you all in the morning :)

It's actually been a while since I've been dropped into a JS repo with no type hints of any kind—no TS, no JSDoc. I had to do it today and…it's almost impossible to understand what's going on. Every function just takes johnny bunchawords and returns...? It's wild to think this used to feel normal.

Another milestone unlocked for Servo: inline SVG support has now landed 🎉 github.com/servo/servo/...

Rust crate names are like "fallible-streaming-iterator" and Python package names are like "BeautifulSoup4"

Just accept that you'll never please the Pokemon—all they do is complain.

How come we say yesterday and last night, but not last day and yesternight?

This is incredible

The futures crate says that `FuturesOrdered` is optimized for situations where you're collecting a 'large number' of futures, whereas `FutureUnordered` is best for the general case. How many futures is a 'large number?' #RustLang
