Rust threads on the GPU GPU code can now use Rust's threads. We share the implementation approach and what this unlocks for GPU programming.

We are excited to announce that we can successfully use Rust's std::thread on the GPU. This has never been done before.

Supporting Rust's std::thread enables existing Rust code to work on the GPU and makes GPU programming more ergonomic.

The Good, the Bad, and the Leaky: jemalloc, bumpalo, and mimalloc in meilisearch How I dove into a spooky memory leak, found it, but discovered that the actual leak was more on mimalloc's side than on meilisearch's. I used jemalloc's powerful tooling and a bit of help from an LLM ...

Release v1.36.0 🐙 · meilisearch/meilisearch Version v1.36.0 introduces an exciting update to the ranking rules to improve the engine's relevance. It's actually the first time we've made such a change since v1.0, and we're really happy about ...

✨ New: new ranking rules!

🔹 attributeRank → prioritizes matches in higher-weighted searchable attributes
🔹 wordPosition → prioritizes matches closer to the start of an attribute

Insert custom rules like price or date exactly where you want 🎯
Thanks @kerollmops.com!

And it has happened: Hegseth and Trump declare Anthropic a supply chain risk.

Every company that has government contracts will be barred from using Claude code.

It is an attempt to outright destroy the company because they did not consent to mass surveillance of Americans and AI kill bots.

Wow.

I added the option to output an emissive texture from the terrain generator. Here's a new moon to showcase the effect 🌋

But a language is not only about the source code but also the ecosystem. Ada doesn't have cargo, the community nor the hype.

What are the benefits of Ada compared to Rust? It seems that Ada is not inherently memory safe compared to Rust

Pagefind | Pagefind — Static low-bandwidth search at scale Pagefind is a fully static search library that aims to perform well on large sites, while using as little of your users’ bandwidth as possible, and without hosting any infrastructure.

Whoa, client-side search got good while I wasn't looking (and what a surprise, it's Rust)
