Blog post today, about what we're going to do about Futurelock: jacko.io/snooze.html. @sunshowers.io and @elizas.website, I'd be curious whether any of this is new to you.

Not directly. I'd recommend spawning a waiter thread and having that thread send whatever async signal you need.

The GitHub links? What URL do you end up trying to load?

Finally released Duct v1.0 in both Rust and Python:

eliminate hidden pass-by-reference footguns · Issue #5973 · ziglang/zig Accepted Proposal Zig 0.6.0 (not master). This is related to, actually maybe a subset of, #4021 / #3696 (this issue doesn't involve result copy elision). I understand that this was intended to be a...

Do you know if the decision to get rid of "parameter reference optimization" will also fix aggregate assignment? github.com/ziglang/zig/...

Rust can Compete with Python YouTube video by Jack O'Connor

Here's my hour-long 😬 take on this question: youtu.be/OQTwvycftJU

Ok having now had a chance to actually watch, can safely say it's another banger.

Jack's videos continue to stand out even in a sea of consistently high quality Rust learning resources.

(If you're just curious about Rust I might suggest one of the other videos though, like "A Firehose")

Glad to hear it! By the way, I'm currently on the job market, if you know anyone who might be a good fit?

Knowing absolutely nothing about the context, that sounds a little fishy if it's working with an iterator, because `map` is "lazy". Any elements that you don't actually drive out of the iterator will never go through the `map` closure. `for_each` might be better?

I'm now 0.34.1 versions old!
This is a minor release, but it comes with some fun stuff:
We (and many others) have been depending on forks of the rust BLAKE3 crate by @oconnor663.bsky.social.

This is no longer the case with its latest updates 🎉

Did you get to the crashing example immediately below? Footnote 8 is also a more complicated example of thread switching overhead.

@without.boats I've tried to write a details-oriented intro to async Rust, and I'd love to get comments and corrections if you have time/interest. jacko.io/async_intro....

They caught the candle!
