    I don&amp;#39;t know what system package I have that was written in haskell, but I just loooove seeing 100 packages that always need updates.

    I have to give a presentation at our monthly department meeting in July. I&amp;#39;m quite tempted to present on why AI is shit.

    I got a notice that several of my GitHub repositories were disabled due to policy violations. Turns out they were just forks of Microsoft repositories, such as https://github.com/Azure/azure-functions-java-worker. Microsoft, you bad boy, you.

    Replaced our usage of the `toml` crate with `toml-spanner` and am fairly happy with the result. The error messages coming out of `toml` (really out of `serde`) were nonsensical for users and this work was primarily motivated by an upcoming feature where we will have certain strings in the TOML file that are snippets of a DSL. With `toml-spanner`, we can now directly parse and statically analyze those snippets and offset any diagnostics based on the TOML string&amp;#39;s span within the file, l...

    I&amp;#39;ll never understand why a programming language can&amp;#39;t just link to the Bugs Bunny &amp;quot;no&amp;quot; meme as their LLM policy. Like how fucking hard is that?

    A PostgreSQL rewrite in Rust? Awesome! Reads a little more. Oh, it&amp;#39;s using multiple LLM agents to produce over 450K lines of code that I&amp;#39;m _totally_ sure will be thoroughly reviewed by the *one person* working on the project. I don&amp;#39;t care how many regression tests it passes, it&amp;#39;s going to be a flaming pile of dog poo for the same reasons Anthropic&amp;#39;s C compiler was.
