🚀 Brace yourself for the groundbreaking saga of rewriting 300,000 lines of #Rust into #Zig because, apparently, 2026 is the year for excessively ambitious rewrites! 🎉 With the riveting milestone of "feature parity" achieved, we can finally update a game no one asked for—truly, a monumental leap for humanity! 🙄

🚀 Oh, joy! Someone decided to #rewrite #Linux 0.11 in #Rust, because clearly, what it needed was more hipster cred and extra bugs! 🙃 And surprise, surprise, it boots in QEMU—exactly where all the cutting-edge tech goes to die. 💀

🚀🎉 Wow, someone rewrote #Postgres in #Rust just to make sure it still passes the same tests it did before. Genius! 🙄 Just what we needed: another exercise in #futility masked as #innovation. 👏

It's a race condition. We normally think of races in terms of racing against yourself - one part of the code does something, while another thread does something else that can cause problems if the timing lines up "right".
But it's still a race condition if the problematic action is caused by something else - a different program, a user's ill-timed command, etc.
Handling these sorts of things requires defensive programming and/or a lot of code for gracefully falling back. This is the sort of code that tends to accumulate in codebases over time, as edge cases are slowly and painfully found and worked around. It's also the kind of knowledge that doesn't exist in the original spec document, which is why ground-up rewrites of established systems tend to fail in ways that the original system experienced and fixed years before.
The Rust rewrite of coreutils exposed a bunch of exactly this kind of failure-to-understand why the original system was operating in the way it did, rather than the "obvious, correct, simple" way.

So, as part of the series of concept art I commissioned in the past, this set by Suiarts on Fiverr, I requested some 3D renders of my ideas for the New Republic's parliament on Hosnian Prime.
It features a more circular design with a central fountain and columns, inspired by the buildings of Naboo.

Recently came across some old concept art for a Star Wars sequel trilogy rewrite a finished a while back.
Here is my recreation of the Resistance, now as the Sentinels. I figured them having a more rugged look fits more of the paramilitary look I wanted, rather than them just being the Rebel Alliance 30 years into the future.
This was a fiverr commission I bought way back when, and just wanted to show their work off.

"Chesterton's Fence":
There exists in such a case a certain institution or law; let us say, for the sake of simplicity, a fence or gate erected across a road. The more modern type of reformer goes gaily up to it and says, “I don’t see the use of this; let us clear it away.” To which the more intelligent type of reformer will do well to answer: “If you don’t see the use of it, I certainly won’t let you clear it away. Go away and think. Then, when you can come back and tell me that you do see the use of it, I may allow you to destroy it.”

Programming: Essay on the revised clib4 C runtime library for AmigaOS 4
At the title link, Andrea Palmatè describes the most extensive revision to date of the clib4 C runtime library for AmigaOS 4. This update included a complete rewrite of the standard I/O subsystem (stdio).

Five years after the deadly attackon the US Capitol, Donald Trump and other Republicans have engaged in a near-complete effort to #rewrite the history of the day and #erase it from the collective American memory.
On his first day in office, Trump #pardoned anyone involved in the attack, a move that affected some 1,500 people.
His administration has #paid $5m to settle a wrongful death lawsuit with the family of Ashli Babbitt, a rioter killed by a Capitol police officer as she attempted to breach doors near the House floor.
Hundreds of other rioters are also seeking millions of dollars in #compensation.
“The pardons issued last January sent a clear message to the American people:
💥political allegiance now matters more than criminal conduct.But over the past year, we’ve also seen a sustained effort to rewrite the facts of January 6,
as if the historical record could be negotiated away or erased,”
said Gregory Rosen, who led the justice department unit that prosecuted January 6 cases.“But Americans remember that day for a simple reason:
👉 we watched it happen.
And as long as we remember what it was
– unadulterated #mob #violence
– we can speak honestly about what it means for our democracy and our future.” -

🤖 Ah yes, the classic "I've asked my #AI to #rewrite my #code 200 times and now it thinks it's Picasso" #experiment. Because nothing says "quality codebase" like a #digital game of telephone. 🎨📱 It's like watching someone try to teach their dog to code—a noble effort, but the dog's just going to drool on the keyboard. 🐶💻
