    The biggest difference in moving from regular employment back to contracts is that now I work from dawn to dusk, 7 days a week with no vacation on sight. And I don&amp;#39;t know if I have work secured to the end of the year.

    I&amp;#39;ve asked Claude to implement a Rust port of JS library given source code in another directory: there&amp;#39;s already one such implementation in OSS, mine. Result? AI blatantly plagiarised my OSS code, including parts that were not present in source it was pointed to port. Upon prohibiting it to touch outside implementations and focus on translating local directory... it ignored command and plagiarised my work again. It did the same with C# port and one existing impl.

    Quite good battle report about state of Rust&amp;#39;s Tauri framework: https://gethopp.app/blog/hate-webkit I&amp;#39;ve heard about these issues before, which is one of the reasons why I decided to use Flutter + Rust bridge for some of my own projects.

    I came to this job because I believed that working in tech sector is the most accessible way to improve lives of the people. Then was &amp;quot;I wonder what new dumb shit are they trying to pull off&amp;quot; phase. Nowadays, every tech news is a new episode of &amp;quot;horrors beyond my comprehension&amp;quot;.

    Why do you even bother implementing a Radix tree if you didn&amp;#39;t include prefix range scans?

    Github will now train AI on your private repositories code as well. Personally, I&amp;#39;ll keep the open source code that I&amp;#39;m paid for open and available on GH. But my experiments and ideas will live on Radicle, on my own machines. https://github.blog/news-insights/company-news/updates-to-github-copilot-interaction-data-usage-policy/

    A little pearl I&amp;#39;ve just found - article (+ working Scala example) explaining how cost-based SQL query optimiser works: https://github.com/tuannh982/query-planner-guide

    Tbh. something that Claude is pretty good at is figuring out Rust borrow checker errors.

    @alexelcu Tbh. I lost any incentive to build open source, except when I&amp;#39;m being paid to do so.

    Tbh. I think that this should be a mandatory in education right now - especially in computer science field. There&amp;#39;s no magic, no ghost in the machine. https://karpathy.github.io/2026/02/12/microgpt/
