Building Systems - A memory profiling journey
I walk through the process of discovering the consequences of not having backpressure in a system

You can vibe code your way to a working prototype. You cannot vibe code or one-shot your way to a competitive product that works at scale. The hard part isn't writing code; it's the architectural supervision.

Bike and trail orgs, cities and high school students unite around WA bill to clarify difference between e-bikes and e-motos
Lake Washington High Schooler Clare Goodrich was one of several students to testify in support of the bill. She spoke about being injured in a crash when she was 14 while riding as a passenger on an e-moto. The driver was 13. After news out of New Jersey broke this week that their outgoing governor Phil Murphy signed a law to recategorize all electric bicycles as motorized vehicles…

Genuinely curious: is there any other reasons besides making more money that would warrant this charge? The comments already point out the fact that network ingress/egress isn't being charged.

Wonder why man pages don't include layout information for structs? Just learned about layout differences for man7.org/linux/man-pa... across x86_64 and aarch64. It's packed on x84_64 for 32 bit compatibility but isn't packed on arm.

Incredibly disappointed (shocked even) that the plan is to make the default Rust mutex not poisonable in the 2027 edition. Poisoning is one of the best examples of Rust focusing on rigor, and removing it from the default mutex would be a massive step backwards.

Switched to a team already using rust and expanded on the projects written in rust since then.
How did you get your first job programming with Rust?
I have a suspicion that most people just added Rust to their company's tech stack before it was officially sanctioned, thus creating a Rust job.

There's still a lot of curable ballots from Seattle (about 1,800). Most are unsigned or signature mismatches, and most skew younger.
