I once played around with having a very large switch statement (all mac address manufactors in one switch) and in LLVM it would compile fine without optimizations, but if I turned optimizations on it would just spend around half an hour compiling it. I think GCC did it faster, but its been some time ago since I did it. In the Rust crate that was the reasons for all this I just ended up doing perfect hashing which compiled much much faster.

Anyone who has a PSP laying around somewhere should go have a look at it because the battery in them consistently turn into a rather spicy pillow. Which I guess makes mod like this more interesting.

No, that was not part of the reason the Google Chrome team gave: https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/g/blink-dev/c/WjCKc...

Greenland, though that is probably not much better in any measurable way, when it comes to transport.

Hi I can't really spot any information about how Obscura is funded on the website. Is it a fully self funded project or have it accepted outside investments?

DNG added JPEG-XL as a format for both raw and compressed recently

Simon Oxley designed quite a few of the most well known animal logos in the tech world today including GitHub's Octocat: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simon_Oxley

Paint.net actually just recently got ownership of paint.net, it only took 22 years: https://www.xda-developers.com/after-22-years-paintnet-downl...

Interestingly IBM have made LEGO sets of various mainframes. I believe that they have been giving them away as prizes and such, there is also a few other companies with LEGO sets listed on the page as well: https://domjant.hu/bricks/

Deno started in Go, but was rewritten in Rust before 0.1

There is also MLKit which is pretty interesting in how it handles memory, it is region based with some fallback to garbage collection.

Usually it's Rewrite it in Rust, but both work I guess

Last week Adafruit received a demand letter from Flux.ai, discussed here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48368121

Yesterday Adafruit updated their blog with a link to the complaint: https://blog.adafruit.com/

There is actually work on adding autodiff to Rust, maybe not really first class citizen, but at least build in: https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/autodiff/index.html (it is still at a pre-RFC stage so it is not something that soon will be added)

Will this be the reason for the Stoll prize to be set up?

Instead of a medal it should be a klein bottle of course.

GitHub have some quite nice feeds

If you want all the commits from a repo you can do something like: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/commits/main/.atom

And if you now only is interested in the num module you can do: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/commits/main/library/std/s...

YouTube still does

    <feed xmlns:yt="http://www.youtube.com/xml/schemas/2015" xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom">

I don't think they are linked to anywhere but the url is http://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=<channel_id>

Hasselblad still uses it in their advertisement to this day

You mean Arch which are currently rewriting their package infrastructure in Rust?

How does that work with SpaceX's product called X (formerly known as Twitter)

Also it is quite a leap to the conclusion that HVDC eqipment will not have long lead times as well especially since there are quite a few less companies making it.

This is what they already are doing, the article is behind a paywall so no clue if they say it there but you can for example see this article about it: https://www.etechvolution.com/p/byd-megawatt-flash-charging-...

What news media would you recommend?

It's not OpenType that can execute wasm it's a experimental extension in HarfBuzz so compared to this it does not work online since it is not enabled for the HarfBuzz builds in Chrome or Firefox. Which makes this more cool to show of online.

(disclaimer, I made the Tetris font)

The history section of the repo clears it up [0]

> LibreSprite originated as a fork of Aseprite, developed by David Capello. Aseprite used to be distributed under the GNU General Public License version 2, but was moved to a proprietary license on August 26th, 2016.

> This fork was made on the last commit covered by the GPL version 2 license, and is now developed independently of Aseprite.

Also I am not really sure if you can convince me that this is a open source license: https://github.com/aseprite/aseprite/blob/main/EULA.txt

Not that it is a unreasonable license, but it is not open source.

Another one just popped up recently though it does not have a lot of coverage if anywhere yet: https://corporate.e-boks.com/loesninger/e-wallet/e-boks-id/

Well they provide that if you want. they have both a OTP dongle, a OTP loud speaker and one that uses FIDO U2F (though you need to pay for that one).

It is actually at least two agencies that is working in that direction, The Danish Road Authorities is also working on it: https://www.fstyr.dk/nyheder/2025/dec/faerdselsstyrelsen-tag...
