The "cargo run --example" feature is one of the best things about Rust and simultaneously one of the worst things about Rust because it means examples are very hard to separate from their source repositories. It's not uncommon for me to copypaste an example file out of an examples/ directory only to find it doesn't build in a new blank project because some very specific, undocumented nonsense out of Cargo.lock is needed to make the darn thing work

I really do wish every language had a "yes this code is in the same repository, but treat it like an unrelated library so I can demonstrate X works for my users".

E.g. it's easy to leak unusable things in Go because the `./internal/` folder is accessible to the module but not anyone else.
(You can explicitly handle this by making another go.mod in an example folder, but basically nobody does that because it's a huge pain to set up and maintain)

@groxx you can do this elegantly in Rust if you use workspaces, I think. But refactoring your project for workspaces is a heavyweight task so most people won't do it just for examples.


An Israeli corvette passes through the Suez Canal.

It is not known when this video was filmed, but it has only now gone viral in the Arab media. What was impossible 50 years ago is now commonplace, as are the constant contacts and coordination between the Israeli and Egyptian militaries.

Egypt does not want war with America. It does not want to see happen to itself what Israel and the USA have done to Gaza.

Egypt and Isreal are not pals whose militaries are hugging on another. Israel would love to force into Egypt the two million or so Gazans it aims to wipe out or expel. Egypt, quite understandably, would like to see Israel resolve its indigenous peoples conflict without such extreme and illegal upheaval.

The world awaits an outcome.

why is a ship passing through the Suez canal of any particular interest to anyone?

Really disappointed with the amount of errors in this video by fireship: youtube.com/watch?v=Iq_r7IcNmU…

- Gandhi bug never happened
- Media attention to y2k is what avoided it
- 100 people died in the northeast blackout, not 0
- the chase 'infinite money glitch' is not a glitch, its an abuse of an intentional goodwill policy
- Aircraft is probably *not* running cpp
- MCAS does not prevent stalling, its job is to emulate a different plane
- NASA didn't use imperial, they used us customary

Yes. "Machines, of course, can’t 'learn' anything. The backgrounds A.I. spat out are derivative distortions, based on pattern recognition."

Then: "But they can also feel like a cop-out, with the creative labor of making a painting outsourced with terrifying efficiency....a large part of what you’re looking at is a computer’s mimicry of a human pursuit, a chill rattles off the canvas."

Artificial Intelligence 'Tricked' Dubliners With A Fake Halloween Parade Announcement. People Believed It And Came

Hundreds of people gathered to watch a Halloween parade that no one was holding.

There was no announcement of the event on the Dublin City Hall website. Moreover, the authorities warned that there would be no parade.

However, the fake announcement spread across social networks and brought hundreds of gullible Irish people out onto the city streets.

North Korea's war machine has joined forces with Russia to invade Ukraine.

The response from the West has been muted at best.

Wouldn't now be a great time for the West to give Ukraine the long-range weapons needed to strike the gathering DPRK forces in Russia that are headed to the Ukrainian front lines?

On this day (02 Nov) 1261 Bettisia Gozzadini died.

In 1239 - she was the first woman to be offered a chair at a University teaching law.

An oustanding speaker: noted for giving to Oration at the funeral of Bishop Bologna, Enrico della Fratta.

She died protecting students who were trying to escape huge floods. The rooms collapsed under the flow of the floods.

And here The Times misses the essential point: The attack on faculty governance is part and parcel of the right's attack on the university and education. It's not about efficiency.

Thank you, Jeff, for continuously showing us examples of how the NYT is just spewing right wing propaganda and/or ignoring facts that are uncomfortable for the right wing.

they've missed a whole lot of points in the past month. A whole lot.

Footage shows an Israeli warship, flying both Israeli and Egyptian flags, crossing the Suez Canal. This comes just hours after a statement from the Suez Canal Authority (SCA) justified the transit of warships from various nations through the canal.

In an official statement, the SCA reaffirmed its commitment to allowing warships to pass regardless of nationality in accordance with the Convention of Constantinople (Istanbul).

I don't trust any news coming from Israel: we all know their disdain and contempt for international norms by now. For all we know, these pilots could be from any where. For example, we know that the US Sec of Defense has announced a consignment of arms to ''the region'' without knowing where exactly. Coming on the back of sending the National Guard to ''Kuwait'' a month before. They think that no one is watching.
