Been exploring Jujutsu (github.com/jj-vcs/jj) for my daily usage. See for yourself:

Git:
1. I screw up my repo again
2. Go to ohshitgit.com
3. Hopefully find a solution to my problem
4. Run the command that I copy and cross my fingers...

InterpN is Scientific Computing in Rust's crate of the month, and featured in This Week in Rust! Check out the writeup to see how it pulls off an up to 200x speedup over SciPy's already-quite-good interpolation methods!

Available via Python bindings and as a (no_std!) Rust crate.
