So if you wanted people to read your blog, you had to make it compelling enough that they would visit it, directly, because they wanted to. And if they wanted to respond to you, they had to do it on their own blog, and link back.

There are bright spots [for blogging], though. I fear we’re in a newsletter bubble (how many subscriptions can one person pay for?)

Some of the best blogs have evolved and expanded. Independent media is more important than ever, and Donald Trump’s recent attempts to censor mainstream outlets, comedians he doesn’t like, and “leftist” professors underscore the fact that speech is critical.

it’s actually a lot harder to intimidate a million different outlets, each run by a single determined person.

If someone wants to be read, it has to be compelling enough that visitors would come.

The heap is a performance killer in Rust. One woraround is to swap to a more efficient memory allocator such as jemalloc.

In Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
mimalloc = "0.1"

In main.rs:

#[global_allocator]
static GLOBAL: mimalloc::MiMalloc = mimalloc::MiMalloc;

The best performance optimisation is to avoid the heap. There is the heapless create for that. "The only thing to know is that the size of heapless types and collections needs to be known at compile-time."

Lifetime annotations are needed to tell the compiler that we are manipulating some kind of long-lived reference and let it assert that we are not going to screw ourselves

The only downside is that smart pointers, in Rust, are a little bit verbose (but still way less ugly than lifetime annotations). [They add some runtime overhead.]

When to use lifetimes annotations?

When performance really matters or when your code will be used in no_std environments.

Ce serait en grande partie dû à une meilleure détection des crawlers. Aussi, les moteurs de recherche fournissent directement des réponses, en se basant sur le contenu de Wikipédia.

Les crawlers sont plus agressifs et certaines ne respecte pas le robots.txt.

« cela signifie que les gens lisent les connaissances créées par les bénévoles de Wikimedia partout sur Internet, même s'ils ne visitent pas wikipedia.org. Ces connaissances créées par l'homme sont devenues encore plus importantes pour la diffusion d'informations fiables en ligne ».

Il y a en revanche un risque à long-terme

avec moins de visites sur Wikipédia, moins de bénévoles vont développer et enrichir le contenu, et moins de donateurs individuels vont soutenir ce travail ».

le Conseil d’État genevois ne veut plus des élèves frontaliers dans les écoles du canton.

Ils sont plus de 30 000 à avoir quitté le canton pour emménager dans l’Ain ou la Haute-Savoie, le “Genevois français”.

The post lists some text adventures.

15 000 such games are listed on The Interactive fiction database

Useful to parse events in the CLI and handle .ical exports.

I don't know. It seems to be overkill for the use. Instead of words, some functions get a capital letter.

Free TV semble évident: une application pour toutes les chaînes de télévision.
En revanche, 170 chaînes OH!

It is currently experimental, but could be amazing because it parse a string of HTML safely and then insert it into the DOM

It uses GSAP
