My name is Martijn Arts (martijnarts.com), but I also still go by Totem or TotempaaltJ in places where I haven't been able/bothered to update my username yet.

They actually were given the same projects! It was anonymously self-reported.

Full quote: "Rust teams at Google are as productive as ones using Go, and more than twice as productive as teams using C++."

From his keynote presentation the RustNation UK conference.

If it ain't broke...

Sure, but they clearly haven't "scrubbed all references" of their open weights from their site.

There's a "Download" button for their open models literally two clicks away from the homepage.

Click "Learn more" under the big "Committing to open models" heading on the homepage. Then, because their deeplinking is bad, click "Open" in the toggle at the top. There's your download link.

Little bit off-topic, but I love how probability gets you into phrasing like "the goat isn't distributed over those two doors"

My guess is that this is still acquiring the email tech, but Notion has no interest in end-to-end encryption. They don't care for the customer base, since those are all with Skiff (partially) for the E2EE stuff.

I'd bet they'll either unravel the E2EE from Skiff's software to relaunch it under their brad, or use their newly acquired expertise to build a Notion Email service from the ground up.

I thought this was a very interesting and accessible talk by the lead of Rust's Infrastructure team about the complexities that come with building a language at the scale of the Rust language. He gives lots of specific numbers, and also reveals some of the plans to deal with future growth.

I think it's really cool that Python has a healthy third-party interpreter community. PyPy, IronPython, Jython, and now RustPython expand Python's accessibility. It's very cool to see how many people are working on this, and I wonder what kind of problems with CPython this has exposed also.
