Rust constants are slowly but surely getting more powerful! On stable you can parse constants from environment variables. I remember having to pull in weird crates & macros to be able to do this. #rustlang

$const TASK_COUNT: usize = { let input = if let Some(string) = option_env!("PERFMON_TASK_COUNT") { string } else { "16" }; match usize::from_str_radix(input, 10) { Ok(val @ 2..) => val, Ok(_) => panic!("PERFMON_TASK_COUNT must be 2 or higher"), Err(_e) => panic!("Could not parse `PERFMON_TASK_COUNT`"), } };$

I've added an AI policy to ripgrep that was shamelessly copied from uv's policy. I plan to add this to the rest of my projects, but if anyone wants to offer feedback on wording, now would be a good time! github.com/BurntSushi/r...

I'm leaving the Playgrounds team in a couple weeks (aka, the team that maintains the `rig` family of crates). Pretty happy with everything we've done. If you are eager to see where I'm going, check my GitHub profile. If not, wait a couple of weeks before I do another post I guess

Gleam Programming Language @gleam.run · 14/07/2025

See how Gleam gets the job done in production ⭐ Full case study coming soon: “For a team like ours, with many other priorities and projects we need to work on, the confidence that Gleam gives us is worth its weight in gold.” - Edward Kelly, Director of Technology at Strand.

Graphic with a headline "Gleam in production" and a quote: “Adopting a new language is always a gamble, but Gleam has paid off. The belt-and-braces approach to safety and fault-tolerance has given us a system that just works, reliably, day in and day out, without constant babysitting and maintenance.” - Edward Kelly, Director of Technology at Strand.

the best part about early computers is they hadn't settled on the term "instruction" yet and many systems called them "orders"

Each pernissible operation can be specified in a concise
coded form called an order. The correspondence between the set of permissible operations and the set of orders which specify them is called the order code of the Illlac. It is given in detail In Chapter
3. A coded problem is called a program or routine.

I've been inspired to write a Rust library for splitting audio easily. Turns out while writing my Discord call transcription bot (for my DnD group), I've learned the hard way that having a library that can easily split audio is actually kind of a good idea. Maybe something coming soon?

Humanity is on track to trash the environment while working jobs we hate, all to fund massive production of electricity so that "AI" bots can talk to each other on social media. This is basically the backstory to The Matrix (1999), except that on a species level, the slavery is self-inflicted.
