I’m delirious from two days of travel but I feel like I remember @lizthegrey.com either can help or knows someone who can?
#rustlang, #jj-vcs, atproto, shitposts, urbanism. I contain multitudes. Working on #ruelang but just for fun. Currently in Austin, TX, but from Pittsburgh. Previously in Bushwick, the Mission, LA.

@rustforgeconf.com was AWESOME! 🙌 So lucky to be part of a lovely #rustlang conference, here in my home of #wellington, #newzealand. Met lots of interesting people, learned some new Rust, enjoyed sharing my own creative passions. 🦀🥝 Thanks @timclicks.dev for organizing. 💜

People saying Trump is dying or possibly dead, but I for one would urge caution, because it is quite possible a second healtbar will appear as he enters his second phase and a gargantuan centipede will burst forth from his torso, so be careful of his new sweep attacks and toxic buildup from bites.

When It Happens, blast any Democrat who "looks forward to working with Vance" directly into the sun. Democrats need to make it clear from minute one that they have this guy's number, know he doesn't have the juice, and that they're going to make his life a living hell from the moment Trump drops.

Yeah, I’m kinda not a fan of unreachable for this exact reason

All unreachable does is call panic, so that would just be abort

Unreachable abort would just be abort, no? You can’t say “please make this ub and also guarantee it aborts”

Also depends on area. But yeah usually you try to at least minimize it in a module if not literally a dependency Even in our embedded os at work it’s 2% unsafe in the kernel

Agreed, but solving their portability issues is going to be very difficult. I hope they do though
Steve Klabnik (@steveklabnik.com) reply parent
The platform didn’t do that. One client did.
Steve Klabnik (@steveklabnik.com) reply parent
That is, like, it’s closer to “picking an alternate client” than “picking an alternate host of your account”, and I do think that difference matters.
Steve Klabnik (@steveklabnik.com) reply parent
I think this is a decent point, but you’re missing some bits. There’s a difference between “required to get started” and “can use at any time”. The latter is much easier, because the choice thing is at its largest during onboarding, not later.

You must not drive in Austin 😭 human drivers are incredibly unpredictable. We have rules of the road to determine who should do what next! They’ll do what they’re supposed to do
Steve Klabnik (@steveklabnik.com) reply parent
They can sometimes be momentarily annoying because they are *too* safe, they do not bend rules even if it were probably reasonable. But that’s actually the way I’d prefer it even if occasionally I’m like “as a human I’d probably bend slightly here”
Steve Klabnik (@steveklabnik.com) reply parent
And the details that fall out from that: their visualization of what the car sees when you’re inside one is far more clear than in Teslas, for example.

Ten years ago I was like “I will never get in a self driving car” I’m totally fine in Waymos. This came after spending a significant amount of time observing their behavior towards me as a pedestrian, the general “safety first” stance of the company and their actions following through on that,

This is why if you’re actually a ‘techno-optimist’ you should fucking hate Elon musk: self driving cars are here, they are real, they work. I could call one right now today.

I’m not sure I believe FSD in its current incarnation can be used responsibly
Steve Klabnik (@steveklabnik.com) reply parent
I am always feeling the tension between personal responsibility and “we should t allow dangerous products to be sold”, I think for me the issue with FSD is that it gets other people killed, not just you
Steve Klabnik (@steveklabnik.com) reply parent
Yeah not saying you’re being shitty here, just like… ugh. Thankfully that one recent court case still held Tesla liable here, I hope it’s upheld
Steve Klabnik (@steveklabnik.com) reply parent
Waymos have this behavior as well. I regularly have to walk a block or so if it determines that it’s safer for it to pull over there.
Steve Klabnik (@steveklabnik.com) reply parent
“Clicking this button labeled “I won’t kill you” may kill you, you accept responsibility if it kills you” isn’t a great look though. That is, this is about Tesla pushing liability onto individuals. And that feels pretty gross.
Steve Klabnik (@steveklabnik.com) reply parent
I think (like many things around ai) we assume humans are 100% good and so judge the car on that expectation, whereas humans in reality are like 75% good at best I see humans run red lights nearly daily and have never seen a Waymo run one.
Steve Klabnik (@steveklabnik.com) reply parent
Waymos regularly “block traffic” for me when I’m trying to cross the street as a pedestrian at a crossing where cars are required to stop for me by law but no human ever does because they don’t want to block traffic, whereas Waymos follow the law
Steve Klabnik (@steveklabnik.com) reply parent
Counterpoint: teslas do this because they’re reckless and understand less of their environment and so have less to be concerned about, Waymos blocking traffic is often good because they’re concerned about more than just traffic, that is, pedestrians.

yeah, this is pretty easy in two ways: you either keep your tool changes ahead of the pr branch, or you work in the 'mega merge' style (even if it's just two branches) where you work on a merge of both, and then push changes down into each as appropriate. easier than it sounds
