Ladybird stans on SuicideWatch rn

Ladybird adopts Rust, with help from AI - Ladybird

We're adopting Rust as our C++ successor language, and using AI agents to accelerate the transition.

Imagine shaving a racist yak
stupid question I probably asked already in the past: dafuq is a ladybird?
A WIP browser implementation.
and the W is for “wailing”
Imagine if a browser was fascist

I really need a way to forget things in manner where I at least remember that I do not need to know certain things.

Unfortunately booze is the blunt instrument I have, so bottoms up.

I love* how the AI stans never get tired of proselytizing.

The result was about 25,000 lines of Rust, and the entire port took about two weeks. The same work would have taken me multiple months to do by hand.

*Love, as in: "I love to get my eyelids scraped with a cheesegrater.
