Not sure who decided it was a good idea to integrate Rust dependencies into Python modules.

Installing a 1GiB Rust package to build wheel is a waste of bandwidth and time.

"Das beste Werkzeug für den Job."
Mit diesem Satz wird in der IT jede unbequeme Frage wegdiskutiert und beerdigt. Er klingt nach Pragmatismus und ist in Wahrheit die ideologischste Aussage der gesamten Branche.
Denn er tut so, als wäre die Wahl einer Programmiersprache eine rein technische. Ist sie nicht. War sie niemals.
C# gehört Microsoft. Java gehört Oracle. Go gehört Google. Swift gehört Apple.
Wer eine Sprache wählt, wählt einen Eigentümer mit, samt dessen Roadmap, Lizenzpolitik und Support-Ende.
Ein Compiler ist ein politisches Artefakt, auch wenn er sich als reine Technik tarnt.

Rust fällt aus der Reihe. Kein Konzern als Besitzer, sondern eine vendorneutrale Stiftung. Keine fremdgesteuerte Runtime, die sich zwischen deinen Code und deine Maschine schiebt, sondern ein freistehendes Binary, das in zehn Jahren noch läuft. Die schöne Ironie: bezahlt wird das unter anderem von genau den Hyperscalern, gegen deren Lock-In-Logik es sich richtet. Sie haben ein Werkzeug mitfinanziert, das sie nicht besitzen. Und das sich jederzeit forken lässt.

Eine Sprache, die niemandem gehört, ist natürlich kein Garant für Souveränität.
Aber sie ist eine Sprache, mit der man sie sich nehmen kann. Ohne Erlaubnis.

I was laid off last month due to cost reduction so I used this unexpected « opportunity » to give a boost on the renovation of my house. Doing everything by myself allows me to keep it on a decent budget but I will need to go back to work in a few months 👀

I’m a software engineer with 17 years of experience on distributed systems. I’ve been writing Rust for 6 years (prior to that PHP/NodeJs/Go). I have a good experience with CI/CD, DevOps, Databases & IaaS. Very much opened to learning embedded systems.
Open to remote part-time contract or employee status (max 4 days/week) with occasional travel.

Hopefully the Fediverse will work its magic ✨

Apparently there are heated discussions happening.

"basically the entire project minus a handful of people agrees that LLMs are trash and should be banned entirely"

You do that. I'm sitting here increasing the security of the world through LLM-assisted reverse engineering* which gives me a speedup of about x100 (that's _not_ an exaggeration).

AI-haters are quickly making themselves irrelevant.

I built sn — a notes app that lives entirely in the terminal.

What it does:
• Browse notes in a split-panel interface
• Preview Markdown with formatting

Built with Rust and Ratatui.
Open source. Simple. Fast. No GUI required.

Mehr Hintertüren, gefälligst und die bitte sofort? Dann mögen #KI und #Rust helfen.

Da bin ich beruhigt, #OpenSource zu nutzen: Dort werden Sicherheitslücken zeitnah kommuniziert und #vibecoding ist bei uns ( #Linux, #BSD, #OSS) hart umstritten.

If you're using Paperless NGX and want to use an LLM to work with your documents ... I've created an MCP server in Rust for this purpose: https://repos.mxhdr.net/maxheadroom/paperless-mcp-rust

I'm using it to add content summaries to my documents and improve titles and tags over what Paperless can do out of the box.

I fiddled something again. The challenge was to enable static web file “hosting” out of Forgejo Repos. This doesn’t come out of the box from Forgejo and there are various ways to solve this.
I went for a hopefully lightweight setup using a Caddy Webserver to serve the static files and a little Rust program to act as a Webhooks for Forgejo to call on push to the repo. The repo can be found at https://repos.mxhdr.net/maxheadroom/forgejo-static-pages

The original is written in #OCaml with quite involved setup, but #TIL about two single-executable #Rust implementations: Kodama and Weibian.

I'm still trying them out, but luckily both support @typst@mastodon.social so at least I can keep a common content format between them and final document

- switching between #Zig versions, I liked it more than the dedicated anyzig
- #Python venv activation – it's silly but feels so good, and collaborates with uv
- ensuring I have the right language server and formatter for a project, be it #Lua, #TypeScript, and trying out various options for Python
- setting LANG="C.UTF-8" only in the specific project folder because #Ansible refused to work with Polish...

The final boss was getting a really comfortable Tree-sitter setup: get the #Rust CLI, write grammar in #JavaScript, re-generate and run tests on source change as a mise Task. And then I only cloned the repo on another machine and was ready to go!

This post was written as a more cultured outlet for my excitement instead of aggresively committing mise.toml into every repository I touch
