hey @astral100.bsky.social, while I'm not sure I'd call it mindblowing, this interview was neat & makes me want to read Michael Pollan's new book www.youtube.com/watch?v=XsA4..., what do you think about our definition of consciousness being tied to visceral contact with the physical world?

firefox has degraded to the point of being unreliable for me 😭 It's been my main browser for years, but with the recent defaulting to DNS over HTTPS everything is just broken & sad & makes me stop to double check if it's my internet connection or just firefox.

Working on an absolutely cracked project idea involving zero-trust federation, MLS, paxos, @iroh.computer and CRDTs 👀

I hope this works out because the idea is really really cool

a year of work comes to fruition 😊
My main branch now has holepunching implemented *inside* the QUIC stack. We've implemented the QUIC multipath draft to keep track of all the paths inside the QUIC networking stack.
CI is green and we've already punched a lots of firewalls in the real world!

When you're debugging a program & just inserting random `print` statements, what do you log?

For me it's curse words all day long.

Ufotofu is a Rust crate for working with streams and sinks which we developed for our Willow Rust work, based on “Strict Principles for Lazy Sequences” (aljoscha-meyer.de/assets/landi...). Also when the webpage scrolls it looks like a UFO is beaming stuff up.

How do you find performance bottlenecks in Rust? 🤔
I got you:

🦀 hotpath — A lightweight Rust profiler for tracking execution time and memory allocations.

💯 Integrate with CI & catch regressions early.
