Your second sentence is your own thoughts, not part of the tldr summary, right? I think you should make that separation clear (in Wikipedia terms, I'm flagging this as "original research").

This is one of my favourites, despite the lack of Hobbes.

forcing passengers to flee

Err, why? We know they're not rabid since it's the UK, so why not just ignore them?

I don't know much about them, I just use vanilla and pay attention to any new features I might want to disable. I think my threat model trusts Mozilla more than these unknown third party folk.

Thunderbird on desktop, although I don't love it.

FairEmail on Android.

[...] a lot of AI companies are “selling dreams” that this tech will go from 80 percent correct to 100 percent.

In fact, Marcus thinks that last 20 percent might be the hardest thing of all.

Yeah, it's well known, e.g. people say "the last 20% takes 80% of the effort". All the most tedious and difficult stuff gets postponed to the end, which is why so many side projects never get completed.

I think anyone who argued for a lowercase i was ignoring the context, but it's interesting to think of it as Star (Trek into Darkness).

I had to check the community when I saw the headline, although the article is a bit heavy-handed.

This is a great little piece, although relevant to developing generally, not just Rust.

Who won? I think nobody really.

Good summary.

[-] Deebster@programming.dev 25 points 2 years ago

It looks interesting. While the compiler is written in Rust (a RRIR from Erlang), the code itself runs on the Erlang VM or on JS. Unfortunately, you can't do hot code reloading and I'm curious what/if you have to sacrifice to run on JS.

Their cheatsheet for Rust users might be of interest to others.
