1. I have neither investment nor interest in the RustConf drama but absolutely fuck Armin Ronacher for trying to call JeanHeyd a diversity hire for the conference. The gall to just be so casually racist is absurd.

  2. @ana 👋

    Is the recommended way to upgrade an installation done via 0.8.0 to 0.9.0 uninstalling and reinstalling with the new build?

  3. @alsutton Your skepticism is valid but I come across new waves of alert fatigue every month caused by CVE systems incorrectly classifying severity so I am personally not very mad about this.

  4. I upgraded Nerd Fonts to v3.0.1 in nixpkgs and in the process switched it to the newly provided tar.xz archives. After this change the derivation now builds almost twice as fast as it did before!

  5. I hate working with NodeJS so fucking much ://

  6. @seb @ashdavies Back when it was in preview I tried to use it and found it mostly lacklustre. It's somewhat useful for basic things that 2 minutes of opening up d.android.com would solve for a human but overall I wasn't very impressed.

  7. I/O day is always hella annoying on the timeline but the AI cringe is making it extra unbearable.

  8. @alice_i_cecile Looks like the GitHub link in this post was meant to be a different one (this is the same PR as the one you mentioned in the previous reply)

    Love seeing these threads, always something to learn :D

  9. Sometimes it feels that the new PC is a bit _too_ fast

  10. @iamliam The sad part is that this is *very* lost on the folks who are actually building these relatively successful products and services. There are so many products who reach an inflection point past which the lust for "growth" causes complete self-destruction. I wish more leaders were comfortable settling for profitable, steady growth rather than chasing exponentially higher numbers.

  11. Lots of people on here are _extra_ Fediverse pilled and will hype up barely functional alternatives to existing platforms just because they speak ActivityPub. Please get serious.
