A new Rust language design post from boxy (my ???): https://www.boxyuwu.blog/posts/an-incoherent-rust/

This is a complex topic, and as the post itself says, it is a bit "lacking in smallness". 100% worth digging into though if you're interested in #rust or the theory of programming language design.

TL;DR: coherence (which is responsible for the orphan rule about trait impls) causes problems with ecosystem lock-in. If we introduce the idea of named trait impls we might be able to do away with it!

An Incoherent Rust

Coherence and the orphan rules are a frequent source of complaints about Rust, and a common topic of language proposals. This post covers most of the existing proposals around coherence and my vision for how we should solve coherence once and for all.

I feel too much anxiety to settle into deep work when there is some bullshit looming

Like when I have lunch, I don't want the conclusion of lunch to always be having to talk someone. I want my lunch to conclude on my way to doing deep work

Gosh I am taking way too long to learn how much more time I need to carve out for myself, and how diligent I need to be about protecting that time.
