“Jim Covello, Goldman Sachs’s head of global equity research, told me, “If we’re going to justify a trillion or more dollars of investment, AI needs to solve complex problems and enable us to do things we haven’t been able to do before.”
Yes it's a quote of a quote
Web 3 for Read, Write, Own...
If the platform or service dies, you don't own it anymore. The same occurs when a platform can steal.
The author outlines https://mirror.xyz/ as an example. I didn't get into it yet.
Self-hosting is web3 at the end.
In just twenty years, OpenStreetMap grew from a small UK-based mapping project into the largest crowdsourced and crowd-worked geospatial project of all time. Mapped and managed by tens of thousands of volunteers all over the world, OSM is the leading provider of open source geospatial data, reaching billions of people each year through a universe of applications and products that use its data for free under the Open Database License.
One keylearning: write functions
cargo doc --open -p <crate>
This opens documentation in the web browser for any crate that a project might be using.
Randomize design tokens value :)
Le vocabulaire dédié aux jeux vidéos expliqué par Sebsauvage. Il y a aussi un article Wikipédia bien fourni: https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossaire_du_jeu_vid%C3%A9o
A successor for Insomnia and Postman. It catches API requests for now.
The more I discover git, the more I learn we can do everything with it!
Notes can be attached to git objects. We can then store plain text in these. So commente, review and so on. I added other posts relatée to git notes in the shaarli.
Pourquoi Framasoft ne fourni pas un service de DNS?
De Bortzmeyer:
1) de ne pas être trop gros pour ne pas devenir un « GAFA de gauche
2) d'être raisonnable dans les services offerts (comme la plupart des services, c'est facile de le lancer, c'est plus dur d'assurer la maintenance sur le long terme).
De Framasoft:
- notre valeur ajoutée serait plutôt restreinte, comme déjà dit, ça existe, juste pas connu 👀
- une grosse audience pourrait augmenter le fait qu'on puisse être vus comme une cible intéressante par certains gouvernements 🕵️
- il faut un effort plus conséquent pour changer ses DNS que simplement visiter un site web pour utiliser un service, ça peut être moins accessible 😓
{:#?} for pretty print instead of debug default formatting. Nice!

Du ressenti du web des années 90 à maintenant
The user expérience should be what matters the most.
C'est similaire de mon côté: un lecteur de flux RSS, un shaarli, et un tag "bookmark" et pas de reste en revanche. Sebsauvage va plus loin avec son propre wiki et la liseuse pour de longues lectures.
Diagram titled 'Possible causes of your problems'. On the left hand side, subtitled 'Yes': Funding removed from local councils, growing gap between rich and poor, multinational companies not paying their taxes, lack of new affordable housing, government not investing sufficiently in schools and healthcare. On the right hand side, subtitled 'No': Picture of small boat, with arrow; 'People fleeing horrific situations that you and I can't imagine'.
It's hard to have a good privacy nowadays

- welcoming community
- good documentation & tooling
- fun to write (in a way??)
- good compiler errors
- fast && secure
- queer community (feel like the Rust community is extra gay 💖)
- great for CLI tools
- the different approach for working with memory (borrow-checker).
- correctness
- fast & small executables
- quality of learning tools
- AI support through a critical mass of resources
- easy once the learning cliff is reached, compared to never-ending list of weird special cases in other languages
- consistent language
- everything is an expression
- pattern matching and enum variants
Forget #rust, learn sea++
That's very interesting
