This is a fantastic episode. @dancarlin.bsky.social eloquently expressed many of the sentiments that have been bouncing around in my head with a great dose of historical context to boot. It's a long listen but it's worth every moment.
Thanks. Everyone seems mad at me again (as usual...from both sides).
We did a "soft release" on this CS show (first in 3 years)so that those who never unsubscribed from the feed and REALLY wanted this got first crack at it. They got that. So here's the link:

NEW: In a new filing, we argue Mahmoud Khalil's detention by ICE violates his rights to free speech and due process.

President Trump can't arrest, detain, and threaten to deport someone because of their speech. Along with @nyclu.org and the rest of Mahmoud’s legal team, we won’t back down.

I wrote up a blog post on some of my recent work to upgrade Semgrep to OCaml 5, and the difficulties I encountered. Check it out!
A huge shoutout to our team for upgrading Semgrep to OCaml 5, paving the way for even greater performance gains. This upgrade is live in both the Pro and Community versions of the engine! 🚀💻

SemGrep has migrated to OCaml 5 with negligible performance impact.

They’ve had to do a bit of work to get a GC spacetime behaviour that matches OCaml 4. This feels like an issue with OCaml 5 GC scheduling. Needs investigation.
