with times being what they are, it seems like you basically can't have a public open source repo without receiving LLM-written PRs. thus, after a great deal of thought, i have adopted the somewhat idiosyncratic Mycelium AI Policy in my personal projects: github.com/hawkw/myceli...

Apparently, if a crate is not 100% human written, it is off topic for /r/rust: reddit.com/r/rust/comme.... I have been working on Toasty for 3 years, 9 months with AI tools. I am quite proud of the code quality and stand by it. By their standard, the entire tokio-rs GitHub organization is now OT.

hot take: for a library with no dependencies that isn’t exposed to untrusted inputs, “unmaintained” is actually the most secure state possible

i take great solace in the fact that my brother, the only true 10x software engineer that i know, has barely heard of IDEs let alone "generative AI"

all these people go on about how stable C and C++ are, and how Rust changes too much.... but then they also talk about how their work codebase is stuck on C89 or C++17. gcc's "codebase isn't fully C++20 ready" gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gc...

who do i have to pay to get a rustfmt that doesn't shit itself on long lines

Useful not just for language keywords, but also identifiers given meaning by macros. For example `thiserror` treats fields named "source" as the Error::source() of your error. If your source means something else, instead of fussing with some kind of #[not_source] attribute, just name it r#source.

Howdy all. I'm unfortunately not going to be with my employer for much longer due to team relocation. If anyone has any info on roles that would allow me to continue my Rust compiler work (in New York City), they'd be greatly appreciated.

Today, we’re announcing the preview release of ty, an extremely fast type checker and language server for Python, written in Rust. In early testing, it's 10x, 50x, even 100x faster than existing type checkers. (We've seen >600x speed-ups over Mypy in some real-world projects.)

There are probably 4–6 people who, if they had dedicated their 10 years to a different language or hobby, you would not be hearing success stories about Rust.

but what I can say is, I personally sat down one evening and said "I think Rust can be the next great systems programming language" and then dedicated the next ~10 years of my life to making that happen

We’re building a new static type checker for Python, from scratch, in Rust. From a technical perspective, it’s probably our most ambitious project yet. We’re about 800 PRs deep!

Not a surprise that we love Rust at @oxide.computer! It's ecosystem of crates is a great strength. Last night @bcantrill.bsky.social and I spoke with our colleague @sunshowers.io, @elizas.website, and @steveklabnik.com about the crates we love. Lotta great stuff out there! youtu.be/BTnrXDjxbBw
