There's the mrustc compiler, which is written in C++. It usually lags behind some number of versions, but it lets you skip to a modern part of the Rust bootstrap chain instead of having to bootstrap from the original OCaml-based compiler. And then there's gccrs, but I have no clue how that's going.

Happy Friday! I've been building towards an "Atmosphere OS", where my atproto account is the identity layer on a real phone. I wrote a little bit about it here:
scott.leaflet.pub
On an Atmosphere OS
What if an Atmosphere account could handle email, groupware, and device-level identity without putting Google or Apple at the center?

It doesn't have to be closed source for it to be possible. A "trusting trust" attack could "technically" be possible, but it's highly unlikely. Diverse double-compiling can apparently defeat it anyhow. The screenshotted post might as well be bait.

All I want is smart glasses that DON’T HAVE A CAMERA. Do not in the least understand why everyone insists on cramming one into these things. I just want turn-by-turn walking nav and text notifications and stuff like that. I don’t want a shitty fuckin cam for perverts.

In conclusion, even if benders had to obey the laws of thermodynamics, they could get away with being the moral equivalent of heat pumps, imo (just ignore how I didn't justify how this work for fire benders specifically :p ). (3/3)

So, my take-away is that bending lends power from some greater external force. I think this is further corroborated by how water benders can't bend for a bit during "The Siege of the North, Part 2" when the moon gets murdered. (2/3)

I don't take much issue with it. I think the show is pretty clear about how bending is a spiritual thing, as evidenced by how the air nomads were benders to a fault, because their society is all being monks and stuff (I'm too dumb to formulate it better). (1/3)

Do you have any examples of such techniques? I've been having idle thoughts on the topic myself, and I'd love to read some prior art.

If you use GitHub (especially if you pay for it!!) consider doing this *immediately* Settings -> Privacy -> Disallow GitHub to train their models on your code. GitHub opted *everyone* into training. No matter if you pay for the service (like I do). WTH github.com/settings/cop...

We are excited to announce that we can successfully use Rust's std::thread on the GPU. This has never been done before. www.vectorware.com/blog/threads... Supporting Rust's std::thread enables existing Rust code to work on the GPU and makes GPU programming more ergonomic.

Rust threads on the GPU
GPU code can now use Rust's threads. We share the implementation approach and what this unlocks for GPU programming.

People desperately want a solution to high housing prices that does not require building new homes in their neighborhoods. No such solution exists. If we want lower rents and home prices, we need to build more homes in the places people want to live. Anyone who says otherwise is bullshitting you.

@matt.godbolt.org I have to admit I was a little sceptical about the dark green color, but I like how it looks IRL

It was a fun talk to watch. It's exactly in the intersection if things I'd like to know about eventually, things that seem to be poorly documented, and things I'm not in a hurry to figure out on my own.

All Git repository tool configuration files (CI, issue template, etc.) should go in to `.config` like Cargo Nextest: nexte.st/docs/configu... Currently we have .gitlab, .config, .cargo, ..., and it creates clutter.

Configuring nextest - cargo-nextest
Configuring nextest: information about profiles and hierarchical configuration.

I was thinking Surely<T> could implement Deref<Target=T> and DerefMut, and just panic if you deref it when it's None.

Very cool. I've always figured that proper graphics drivers would be a bit of a pain for any new OS.

The timing on this couldn't have been better. Turns out I needed to export an accessible PDF from my Typst project tonight to hit a deadline. You guys saved me from a lot of trouble. Please forward my appreciation to whoever got it implemented <3

No worries. I would still say that the extra required import is awkward and it can hurt discoverability. I'm not entirely sold on this particular RFC's proposed solution, but I still think it's valuable to attach non-overridable methods to a trait in some form.

maroider @maroider.net · 08/10/2025
`impl<T: Trait> T {}` isn't valid Rust. What the RFC refers to as an existing alternative is extension traits, which would be `impl<T: Trait> ExtTrait for T {}`. `impl dyn Trait` also only works on trait objects which is awkward.
