Everyone’s been on edge with supply chain attacks. A first party check for uploading crates is EXACTLY what I was hoping for. Good on the foundation and I can’t wait to see this rolled out. I’d love to see more strict auditing for especially popular crates #rust #rustlang

there is no such thing as "age verification." All "age verification" is actually "identity verification." You can coat it in glitter and "privacy-preserving" wrapping paper. But in the end, mandating age verification means mandating surveillance be built into software and hardware. Period.

Godot's GitHub has increasingly many pull requests generated by LLMs and it's a MASSIVE time waster for reviewers – especially if people don't disclose it. Changes often make no sense, descriptions are extremely verbose, users don't understand their own changes… It's a total shitshow. #godotengine

Does anyone use the newer [track _caller] macro in their custom errors? How are folks usually figuring out where the error occurred? On another note if I don’t want to use a crate is map_err the only real way to provide context for an error? #rust #rustlang #software

#rustlang hot take: We should rename .unwrap() to .or_panic(). (And .expect() to .or_panic_with().) "Unwrap" is a terrible name for the panicking function, especially since we also have things like .unwrap_or() and .unwrap_or_default() which never panic.

blog.cloudflare.com/18-november-... Why does the cloudflare codebase allow for .unwrap() Ideally it should be banned via clippy lints. The entire point of errors as values is that this sort of thing can be handled. They could've just used a match on the result. #rust #rustlang #cloudflare

A screenshot of a quote tweet from Sequoia partner Shaun Maguire quoting Silicon Valley legends (including Don Valentine, Pierre Lamond, and Mike Moritz) explaining that he has "Sequoia-sized shoes to fill". The quote tweet is an image of Lloyd Bentsen in the 1988 VP debate, immediately before telling Dan Quayle that he is "no Jack Kennedy."

I've done a 180 on supply chain security - I used to think it was mostly a theoretical problem: between communities of mostly good actors, many eyes to review, good policies for announcing vulns and removing crates, and basic due diligence, issues would be found and addressed before doing damage
