This is why I am excited about Goose in a way I haven't been about any new programming language since Rust. Putting aside GC, even heap allocations have overhead. And it is very natural to do quite a lot of allocations in C/C++/Rust. A language without heap allocations can be a lot faster!

Oh sweet irony turns out there are upsides to sucky ssl certs news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5018... e.g. when you need to own your on hw/sw

This is a very good piece about how the plane survived the rapid descent. Still, the pilots are out of reach for now. www.wsj.com/business/air...

Wrote some fairly involved Unixy process fiddling code in go(on Linux). Was shocked that it just worked with all tests passing on first try on openbsd. Apparently go is the thing that makes Unix portability work

ring true. most of my career was about making money from fixing code after people with fast fingers.

Google's Open Knowledge Format (bit like llm.txt, i guess...) An open specification that formalizes the LLM-wiki pattern into a portable, interoperable format. cloud.google.com/blog/product...

Omer Bartov reviews Jochen Hellbeck's book on how the Nazis' geopolitical ambitions specifically against "Judeo-Bolshevism" were crucial fabric & "larger setting" of the Holocaust & WWII, ie not the West's strictly racial hatred dominant narrative. Western erasure of USSR vs Soviet erasure of Jews.

I made myself a cool tool to quickly eval quality of an internet link, it's a awk script over ping. Now i'm shocked by @tailscale.com degradation for a direct link on my lan.

Wish McCain was alive to see his least fav gas station shut down

Ukraine's SOF took out a Russian mobile fire group tasked with protecting fuel trucks from drones on the logistics route to occupied Crimea.

deep inside modern social media is oldschool thoughtfulness like this comment on physics hackerweb.coolness.fyi#/item/486177...

this still matters

Let's collect some cool stuff people are building on iroh :) Post your thing and we'll try to repost ✌️ 🧵

UAVs operating in Crimea feature interesting markings on their components.

blog.izissise.net/posts/webdev... is a so much linux hackery, delightful. Will try to improve on this

Still dumbfounded when llms put together software that would have taken me weeks. I can now explore every single linux perf optimization my heart desires. Used to be so painful to get into new areas

Tailscale on UEFI ... who needs an OS, really? (using github.com/usbarmory/ta...) And yes, clearly putting a bootloader in here is an obvious next step 😉 This week is Hack Week at Tailscale. This is one of the 4 weird new places I got Tailscale running. #golang #tamago #tailscale #hackweek

Ukraine is #2. Every village has cheap fiber here

The Jetsons lied to us

@ilyasergey.bsky.social: "I formalised and proved the correctness of Move’s new borrow checker in Lean: 39,000 lines of mechanised metatheory, produced in under a month with the help of an AI coding assistant." How it went, and what it augurs for PL research. proofsandintuitions.net/2026/03/18/m...

Pretty staggering that the FT Trump interview opens with ‘if NATO doesn’t help us sort this mess, there’ll be problems’ and ends with ‘Russia might be helping target American soldiers, but really that’s sort of fair enough - we started it’. www.ft.com/content/1ca6...

1) Provide weapons to aggressor country 2) Encourage victim to develop defenses 3) Complain when victim sells defenses making your weapons less effective I dont like regime change wars, but do hope that current regime heads die like Gaddafi. All of them nypost.com/2026/03/14/w...

Lenovo’s New T-Series ThinkPads Score 10/10 for Repairability https://lobste.rs/s/azkace #hardware

Wtf

While we sit around to find out how bad exactly it all is, a bit of cheer: the best baguette of Paris competition was won by a Sri Lankan who appears to have started as a dish washer in restaurants and eventually trained as a Boulanger. www.paris.fr/pages/la-mei...

LOL. Anthropic bought Bun, last December.

This is a pretty cool way to structure coding: have the llm pretend to be submitting lkml patch series. This way you can revisit architectural issues, etc github.com/hsaliak/std_...

This is a really nice new Cloudflare feature: on-the-fly markdown conversion. Tools like Claude Code send an "Accept: text/markdown" header when making web requests. If you enable this it, it will send these agents a markdown version of your page instead of the full HTML. Really good for docs.

about freaking time! So excited

lobste.rs/s/hkqnro/git... test suites that start from failed tests would be amazing

this @tracyalloway.bsky.social @weisenthal.bsky.social Odd Lots piece with @heidirediker.bsky.social is fantastic Interesting that Tracy mentioned about their Dan Wang interview, necessity & central planning have some advantages. Biogas is another anecdote podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/o...

smolBSD is completely insane. How can a full kernel boot in 10ms. What are unikraft and other weird kernels gonna do now?

I switched to Purelymail yesterday on a whim (from my previous self-hosted set up) and so far so good. Much easier than I expected, only took about 30 mins.

it occurs to me that miller’s name will survive only as does that of castlereagh: to be spat out in disdain by a poet

It’s happening. Yarn 6 Preview is here 💫 Yes, we rewrote it in Rust 🦀⚡️ I'm incredibly excited for the future of our beloved package manager. See the benchmarks and plans in our latest post:

Sorry for the bad output formatting on the cold-start run, it's about 1s until I receive a response, and 39ms for the same request on the second try...

DuckDB now supports reading from and writing to the Vortex file format! The DuckDB Labs and Spiral teams have worked together to make Vortex available as a core extension in DuckDB. We gave it a test drive, and it performed very well. Read the full article to learn more lnkd.in/eZfGzPiZ

Would it be ok if we call unqualified people using llms...AI agents?

I love the idea of my JBL Link display cos it has awesome sound and the voice interaction features from google home...but I absolutely hate how the device gets worse over time. As a result been thinking through and prototyping a simpler solution for past few years... Hate-driven development

next time i have free time gonna try this mouse thing github.com/moverest/wl-...

wifitui v0.10.0 is out (fast friendly featureful wifi tui for linux): - added support for displaying multiple access points - improved experimental macOS support (thanks @jimst.bsky.social) - better key handling (hjkl), and more! github.com/shazow/wifit...
