If you have specialised knowledge of integrating scripting into a Rust program (a game, specifically) with a relatively high performance target and relatively low concern for protection against malware (basic restrictions of host APIs is nice but ultimately not necessary), please hit me up I have questions as I’m not experienced with the specific field

specifically I’m switching away from Rhai because it’s too slow for my usage and because my game is an automation game that has all the content built with scripting, ideally I’d want a very high performance target, anything short of JIT or native won’t be enough. the game’s logic mostly consists of independent scripts that send messages to each other via an actor system, and rendering is done by asynchronously collecting rendering commands from scripts. wasm isn’t out of the picture but it’s clunky and I don’t know how to make it performant or how to minimise serialisation overhead.

Ihr programmiert gerne und nutzt dabei auch #GitHub #Copilot?

Dann solltet ihr jetzt in die Copilot Einstellung gehen und die Privacy Einstellung aktualisieren.

Denn GitHub will ab dem 24. April 2026 "Interaktionsdaten von GitHub Copilot für das Training von KI-Modellen, sofern Sie dem nicht widersprechen" verwenden.

Unter der Option: "Allow GitHub to use my data for AI model training" könnt ihr dem widersprechen, indem ihr einfach das Feld auf disabled setzt.

Andernfalls kann GitHub jede Datei, an die Copilot ran kommt, theoretisch für das Training von KI Modellen nutzen.

PowerShell can be wonderfully helpful right up until the string 'false' pretends to be true. This PoshBytes short walks through why if($value) is not the same as if($value -eq $true) and when that difference matters.

I was already having misgivings about #CPython when I saw a required #Rust dependency coming up (although I know many here have no issues with this), but now that there have been #LLM commits to the project, I'd like to look at alternatives. It seems great that #Pypy exists, although I worry that it will end up replicating undesirable behavior from CPython in the future.

I had been learning C++ with the goal of writing extensions using CPython. As it happens, I already have a physical copy of a book on #Lua and many applications are written in C++ with Lua scripting on top, so I'm going to swap out Python for Lua in an upcoming project. I'm excited to be able to experiment with #LuaLaTeX or writing scripts for #GeanyIDE. The language shows up in way more places than I realized.

[Edit: Solved!] I [had] a bizarre-ass #Bash #scripting problem. I'm at my wits' end.

I have a script that scans a directory and picks a random file from it. This script works just fine if I invoke it manually, from the command line in a terminal window.

But if I run it from the Linux Mint/Cinnamon menu (start menu, whatever), it hangs when it tries to list the files in the dir. Likewise when run from crontab (which is how I really want to run it most of the time). 🧵 1/4
