Sigh.. another #WebDev tool has crossed over into #fascist no-fly list. #deno has joined #cloudflare, and at the end of the announcement, they have joined the circlejerk for #ai #slop.

At this point, we have #node, and #pnpm as viable choices for now. #Bun has been #vibecoded into being #rust based, but apparently the developer acknowledges it's a big hot mess that is going to take a lot of work to clean up.

Sigh... I want off this stupid ride.

If I understand this correctly, #llm coding agents can now take proprietary software as a reference and develop independent "clean-room reimplementations" from it.

That seems to be what the ArtCraft initiative is doing with its #rust reimplementations of #photoshop and Co., native clones of Adobe's apps for #linux, macOS and Windows.

I haven’t tried them myself, but the idea that complex proprietary software can increasingly be recreated this way is a bit spooky.

https://bd103.dev/blog/2026-10-07-c-for-rust-programmers/

I'm away this Friday, so this weeks update on Diesel, a query-builder and ORM for Rust already happens today.

I'm happy to announce the release of Diesel 2.3.14, which fixes one bugs, including a bug our transaction handling. Additionally it includes several minor improvements like the updated support for Error::source or a deterministic version on diesel_migrations::embed_migrations!(). See the release announcement for more details.

Since the last update we got 4 new bug reports and 11 new pull requests.

My talk on how to test a Wayland compositor is now live on YouTube, and I prepared full English subtitles! Give it a watch here (enable subtitles in the player): https://youtu.be/w44fYK5z418?list=PLK4NE4dSsLlw

The first half overlaps my 2024 RustCon talk, but the second half (client-server tests) is new.

Currently at a free software devs conference in Russia, and I'm surprised that random people actually recognize me and come up and say they use and like niri. Apparently there's even a whole department of niri users in one of the big Russian Linux companies 😅 So cool to hear!

I'm afraid I should've ordered more than just 15 new niri charms though lol

(Boosts welcome!)

Hi there! @theova and I are two software engineers with a combined 11+ years of experience building privacy-focused communication systems at @threemaapp in the Protocols and #Security team, now looking for our next opportunity.

Our background spans protocol design, applied #cryptography, #WebRTC, cross-platform library development in #Rust, distributed systems, privacy-focused applications, and full-stack software architecture.

We work well together as a team, are used to bouncing ideas off each other, challenging each other’s designs, and then building things. We'd love to join a team of like-minded people working on something meaningful and put our expertise to good use.
We are based in Switzerland, close to Zürich, and are also open to remote/hybrid positions.
