Congratulations! And the project sounds very interesting. I’m looking forward to hearing more about it!

I think you’re right that ORCID capture a small subset. I’m not sure whether DOIs are the problem. Many other (prepublish) systems, such as Zenodo and ResearchGate, allow you to create DOIs. I think the question really is just what is indexed.

Looking forward to throwing away another collection of macros! 🥳

Glad to see that DTrace is looking a lot better than last I looked in Rust. The the usdt crate is much better documented and has many more features now.
Also excited to see some examples of scripts using the nextest probes!

The top line is we're never going to get rid of hallucinations as it's just the way LLMs are built: they're not understanding, they're guessing based on stats. But maybe LLMs can be better fine-tuned to sound less confident, so humans aren't so taken in by them & use them more appropriately?
