Yesss… You’re not wrong, but I really do believe the solution we want is to be found somewhere in that direction. Considering the Google graveyard, the faang crowd isn’t all that reliable either.

This is a somewhat surprising position to see in the fediverse…

(I mean, I get what you’re saying, and I guess someone should bring that to the party, but there is s different way)

Well, Rust has a lot of string flavors, and I like utf-8 being the norm, but there are a bunch of cases where enforcing utf-8 is a nuisance, so getting string features without the aggro enforcement is nice.

There’s probably some fruity way to make this a security issue, but I care about ascii printables and not caring about anything else. This is a nice trade off: the technical parts are en-US utf-8, the rest is very liberal.

Rust implementation of the Meta-II meta compiler. I used bstr, which was interesting.

Ok, so it’s to hear from people building stuff, but isn’t it maybe a little light on details? I feel the consultancy contact details to profound insights ratio is a bit underwhelming.
