just tried and can confirm i can still rap their song Long Kiss Goodbye this was always my favorite part: 「つまらないジョークはいっつもくどくどこまでも続く飽き飽きなトークそのたびロック今度は私からknock」 the mouth-feel on rapping this part is excellent 「いっつもくどく　どこまでも続く飽き飽きなトーク」

DID YOU KNOW that Toyota has open-sourced a Confluence page to Markdown converter? psssssssst: it's written in Rust and that -- unlike a simple export, it keeps PlantUML and draw[.]io content editable and outputs in a structure that’s easy for generative AI to understand

this is not meant to be bleak, but empowering with the right mindset: as an adult it is very rare for somebody to come save you from a situation you're pretty much on your own; you're the captain of your own ship if someone is willing to stick their neck out, return the favor if able

was great to have Christof Petig of Aptiv share how ideas like WASI, the Component Model, and WebAssembly Interface Types have their place in the Automotive industry =) yup: according to Christof when working to get interoperability smoothly between C++, @rust-lang.org, and other languages it fits!
