It’s weird that “written in Rust” is some sort of headline feature.

It’s like “baby on board” stickers on cars - why are you telling me that?

Then again Rust is so complex maybe it’s worth self congratulations.


“Work From Henge”

I would have thought you’d need to explicitly code to match the cpu capabilities to your application, for maximum benefit.

This is what you should always do when you know on which computers you will run the program, like I do when writing programs for my own computers.

If you are a software vendor, or even just a contributor to some open-source program, you must make some compromise between program performance and its ability to run without modifications on an as large number of computers as possible.

Therefore you must either avoid any features available only in newer computers, or you must have some kind of processor capability detection at run time, followed by the selection of appropriate program variants.

You might not afford to prepare enough program variants, so it is likely that you would still choose to not support the most recent computers.


>> an agent was utilized at points to save copious amounts of time

So ……. vibe coded.


Not all LLM-assisted coding is vibe coding, even with an agent.

that would imply i just let it go to town with no understanding.. so no.

Could it be the plastics, or maybe the pollution in the air, or maybe the pfas in the water, or maybe the pesticides in the food, or maybe the vaping, or maybe the sedentary lifestyle, or maybe the hundreds of nuclear weapons exploded all over the earth, or maybe it’s the degradation of the ozone layer due to chemicals used in manufacturing.

Such a mystery.


But without population growth there will be no economic growth, the economy will stall it will be an unmitigated disaster.

Every country must grow as much as it possibly can and then keep growing much more than that.


> without population growth there will be no economic growth

This is not true. Productivity is the mediator between a constant population and economic growth. (The world economy has grown much faster than its population over the last 100 years. And the U.S. still out produces the more-populous India.)


I assume that's meant sarcastically, but it does sum up the capitalist mindset. It's taken along with the understanding that it's fine if all the new economic output ends up in the hands of the 1%.

I carefully check the label and try to only buy Australian made 100% food.

I never buy any food ever from China.


What's that going to help you with?

Ever been to Innisfail? Have you seen them fly small Cessna's over the banana fields and absolutely drench them with pesticides?

They do this with all the crop fields in Aus.


It's one of the richest food cultures in the world. If you've never tried sichuan peppercorn on mapo tofu, or pickled mustard greens on noodle dishes, I think you're in for a real treat.

These do involve foods from China though..


They have some really good foods. They also have some really unethical foods. When we only have a broad brush...

You can use safe Australian ingredients to cook the recipe.

Where in Australia grows Sichuan peppercorns? They're almost exclusively grown in China and the general regions nearby to my knowledge.

You can grow them yourself. I had no effort producing more than I can use in only a few years time.

That's great but not an option for everyone.

Eh, tofu is hardly something that anyone is worse of not having.

the famed triple negative (also tofu is healthy and delicious)

Does that meaningfully restrict which foods / ingredients you can get?

In terms of fresh meat and vegetables, it's pretty much all grown/produced in Australia. Anything canned / dried is often imported though. Things like rice or coffee beans you technically can buy Australian grown but you'd have to go out of your way to find it.

No. Australia produces vast variety of food everything you could want to eat aside from more exotic stuff.

In Australia, tea and spices are imported predominantly from Asian countries.
