@wffl i saw some rust job openings for Zed recently
zed.dev/jobs
Unfortunate it seems to be AI adjacent

[wffl@im-in.space]

@whitequark I'm gonna give a talk about the whole ordeal at rust week ^'

[whitequark@social.treehouse.systems]

@mei @wffl 100%

[simon@tutut.delire.party]

@wffl @whitequark sometimes i wonder if i shouldn't have argued so loud against that previous attempt because of what it did to the objc crate
it was so long ago :(

[whitequark@social.treehouse.systems]

@simon @wffl oh

[simon@tutut.delire.party]

@whitequark @wffl for context: https://docs.rs/objc/latest/objc/macro.msg_send.html relies on type inference for the arguments and return type of an FFI call. with insufficient annotations, the return type would correctly fall back to () but that stabilization attempt changed it to ! somehow, even though the call *did* return. lots of arguably-wrong but innocent-looking calls became UB in nightly

@wffl @adrianco Given your Rust creds, maybe hit up the folks at @oxidecomputer cc: @bcantrill

[wffl@im-in.space]

@erik @adrianco @oxidecomputer @bcantrill they sadly can't hire me (:

[erik@mastodon.infrageeks.social]

@wffl @adrianco @oxidecomputer @bcantrill Crap. Sorry

[wffl@im-in.space]

@mei @whitequark sadly I have to find a job before rustweek if I want to stay in the Netherlands so :')

[wffl@im-in.space]

@simon @whitequark it's okay, we figured things out afterwards <3

[wffl@im-in.space]

@erik @adrianco @oxidecomputer @bcantrill dw, you couldn't know :')
