It's fun to compare #LLMs to #Microsoft's ill-fated #Clippy from the 90s. Microsoft implemented what they called assistants because the company CEO was boinking the person in charge of the project (literally – look up Microsoft #Bob and Melinda Gates).
Microsoft actually did focus groups and usability tests of the feature for #Office, and people loved it: it provided helpful hints and made accessing Office's extensive help system. Microsoft then turned Clippy to 11, making it get in your way for fucking everything.
Microsoft didn't realize people liked it giving helpful tips occasionally but didn't want it to interrupt them all the time when working.
Watching them flail about making the same mistakes to #pump market value smells the exact same a all the people arguing that the AI #bubble is different from the crypto-bubble or the sub-prime bubble or the .com bubble or all the other bubbles.
It's the exact same, they make the same mistakes because they refuse to learn from well-established history, and they rationalize it because they value short-term gains over long-term prosperity. -
A minimal, declarative setup for productive Rust 🦀 hacking on Emacs + Guix
I noticed there was a blatant lack of resources and documentation on this particular setup.
With a tiny manifest and a small Emacs configuration, you get a powerful, reproducible, elegant Rust development environment.

Hot take: #Microsoft should’ve had the balls to just revive #Clippy instead of introducing #Mico.
Now everyone’s laughing that it’s Clippy 2.0 anyway, but if MS had been the ones calling it Clippy, they would’ve been able to preempt the fun making. And they could’ve spinned it by saying the original Clippy was just ahead of its time and now they have the tech to make it good.
It would’ve shown confidence instead of their usual confusing messaging that no one can keep up with.

Dylint - Run #Rust lints from dynamic libraries:
https://github.com/trailofbits/dylint
"Dylint is a Rust linting tool, similar to Clippy. But whereas #Clippy runs a predetermined, static set of lints, Dylint runs #lints from user-specified, dynamic libraries. Thus, Dylint allows developers to maintain their own personal lint collections."
Looks like a really cool project!
