The Google Home is hot garbage. I do like the hardware though.

It's truly baffling. I was very frustrated with C++ (pre-LLM era) to the point I actively left a good job just so I can work on Rust.

Greed. There's no technical basis. I am pretty sure they considered it and even though L2s do not pay much rent to L1, Stripe wanted absolute control (which goes against decentralization) and all the fees in their pocket. Just hoping this doesn't become another trend.

Absolutely, I worked on tech behemoths and smaller companies. The dev experience was significantly better when all development was local. I even worked on initiatives to move development away from the cloud, and although other devs were skeptical, they ended up loving it.

I also love VRL. Such a joy to work with.

The correct thing to do is to leave these comments as a code review and let the contributor fix it. No one argued in favor of accepting a buggy patch.

It's not as good as I would like it to be.

Exciting. I hope it can handle macros.

I worked on this team for 3 years along the OGs behind BMQ, specifically on a closed-source middleware with very similar architecture. I am very happy that they finally open sourced one of their main projects!

They have very strict standards which are necessary given that C++ really is a minefield. We did a great job avoiding UB by following those coding standards. There is some verbosity that can be avoided but hey these are details.

Personally, I have moved to Rust since then and I am not looking back.

Almost all crypto projects use Rust.

Two Sigma launched new Rust teams to replace their core systems.

Generally I might agree but not in this instance. This is typical Elon Musk communication style.
