NumPy in rust now exists folks. Let the science people know.
i built an entire x86 CPU emulator in CSS (no javascript)
you can write programs in C, compile them to x86 machine code with GCC, and run them inside CSS

What do LLMs see?
I wrote a lil' tool that extracts the attention matrices out of open models and creates this typing visual, with each token's opacity changing according to its average attention score as the prompt progresses. Dimmer words are considered less important to the model.
"you can just use embedded rust libraries off the shelf for GPUs because it's just a normal no-std library, duh" is SUCH a huge validation for how we've structured the embedded Rust ecosystem.
No OS to port, no complex tooling to set up. If you can run rust code, you can just drop no_std crates in.

Usually in this last situation it would require a few iterations of agent review, human review, simplification, etc.
Also, there are probably many teams out there where the "review pipeline" is already almost a bottleneck, even without LLM agents.
Oh, I mean, it's debatable more in the sense that it really depends on the situation and context.
Maybe the agent will help fix a super hidden bug with changes in 3 lines of code (trivial review), maybe it will generate tons of boilerplate with complex interactions that would require a long review.

"We choose to go to the fucking Moon in this fucking decade and do the other fucking things, not because they are fucking easy, but because they are fucking hard."
Another argument for up:
- This fact will create more demand for Rust, thus for Rust developers
Now, both arguments for down are debatable. AI only helps learning if the developer really really wants to learn, the "easy mode" it creates is to not learn much and just depend on the AI tools.
Rust has a linear algebra problem.
See, linear algebra is super important for many of the applications where Rust is most commonly used. Yet, we have an underwhelming set of linear algebra libraries.

Zlib-rs is now feature-complete! We've released v0.6, the first version with a stable and complete API. The blog post has the details.
With thanks to our maintainer Folkert de Vries, our contributors and @sovereign.tech.

#rust #rustlang
nextest can now rerun failing tests!
cargo nextest self update --version 0.9.123-b.3
# enable functionality, see link
cargo nextest run
If tests fail and/or the run is cancelled, then:
cargo nextest run -R latest
to rebuild and pick up from where the test run left off.
Please test this out!

wikipedia turns 25 today! the last unenshittified major website! backbone of online info! triumph of humanity! powered by urge of unpaid randos to correct each other! somehow mostly reliable! "good thing wikipedia works in practice, because it sure doesn't work in theory" - old wiki adage
@anthropic.com is investing $1.5 million in the PSF, focused on security. These funds will make an enormous impact on the PSF and the security of millions of #Python and @pypi.org users. Please join us in thanking Anthropic for this landmark gift!

Another Erdos problem this morning:
(just to respond to a few people-- the system does NOT work by trying every possible answer and then checking. There's not enough matter and energy in the universe to solve theorems by trying every possible combination of symbols or whatever)
The `interpn` library for Rust and Python has the fastest interpolation algorithms I'm aware of - up to 250x faster than Scipy - and today it got faster!
After years of focusing on single-thread performance, I finally called it good gave it more cores - and the parallel speedup is nearly linear!
On behalf of the packaging maintainers, I’d like to announce packaging 26.0rc1 is out! Please try it out, as it's a huge release. If you'd like to read about the performance work making this the fastest version of packaging ever, see my post:
