@imperio I’ve been struggling with the new search UI on docs.rs. My brain keeps hunting for a text box to type in, so I end up clicking the global search bar instead of the crate icon every time.

It's especially confusing seeing the old vs new UI on different crates. Is there a reason we moved away from the persistent bar? I'd be happy to file an issue/PR to improve the icon's visibility!

One of my favorite #Rust facts is that specialization, proposed in July 2015, was described as a "relatively small extension to the trait system". It's been a couple years since I encountered this and it's still funny.

Why use a URL shortener when you can use a phishy URL extender?
