(an excerpt from nori's website. set in frog green against charcoal grey)
Values. 2020-04-07. In 2020 when I was applying for jobs I wrote about my values for my resume. It is “work-forward” (particularly with the first line being the first line) and it is an artifact of its time, but largely these are still values that I hold dearly.
* Systems, Wisdoms, Documentation, & Categorization;
* Eloquence, Candor, Quiet, & a Good Conversation;
* Verbosity, Curiosity, Self-Awareness, & a Stomach for Details;
* Help, Interest, Space, & Gracefulness;
* Earnestness, Willingness, Openness, Meditativeness;
* UnSelfishness, UnSelfConsciousness, UnSelfHatedness, UnSelfGatedness;
* Tools, Transposition, Cross-Pollination, Self-Selection;
* Commitment, Sharing, Caring, & a Good Metaphor;
* && Taking Care of Folks by Being Sweet & Kind & Quick to Help!

By default, behavioral changes are not breaking changes.

Documented behaviors on the other hand should be treated as semver relevant. It's hard to imagine a function ever documenting exactly how much memory it uses so that's probably always fair game.

Question for the #rustlang crowd:

Anyone know of a formal CS textbook that teaches Data Structures and Algorithms in Rust?

What about a Graph Algorithms one?

Would appreciate a signal boost

Today’s my last day at AWS working on the Rust compiler. Unfortunately, back in July I received notice that I had to choose between moving to Boston from NYC, or leaving the company due to RTO policy. I unfortunately couldn’t abandon the city I plan on being my long term home.

FDA ends broad Covid vaccine authorization as RFK Jr. limits access to immunizations It's unclear how easily patients without high risk factors will be able to get a Covid shot, and whether insurance plans will still cover them.

Alchemy 2: Electric Boogaloo Why the dream of AGI rests on undiscovered mathematics, biochemical hand-waving, and Silicon Valley's accidental religion.

Interesting read about AGI's likely impossibility and includes one of my fave lines in recent weeks:

"hubris dressed as optimism."
