I ported the zbar library from C to Rust, and it now has a website with a WASM demo and an npm package: https://zedbar.org/

@caseyliss I’ve found Claude Code to be quite good at cleaning up these little messes, and generally at one-off computer chores. Give it a try!
@apike I recently discovered Zen Browser, a straight up clone of Arc that is based on Firefox: https://zen-browser.app/download/
Might be worth a look, though obviously the “based on Firefox” part might cause some issues.
Any Rustaceans want to help me remove the last bit of `unsafe` from my zbar port? https://github.com/eventualbuddha/zbar/pull/5#issuecomment-3488782054
@atpfm I share your “if it’s not in the calendar it’s not going to happen” viewpoint. Sometimes that’s not enough, though, since I often just don’t see the alerts. I missed a haircut appointment once because of this and decided to see if I could do better. I ended up making a Shortcut that runs daily and creates alarms for anything in my calendar with a particular emoji in the title. This has been a big help: https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/998f7f6b5c9b442b8d38c4085737e553
I’m late to the party with this, but I enjoyed how much this captured my own experience as a programmer: https://notashelf.dev/posts/curse-of-knowing
Kim ScheinbergObjectively, it's far more troubling that they're banning Toni Morrison and David Levithan and Art Spiegelman and any books that even hint at representing the right's Horsemen of the Apocalypse
But there's something so completely batshit about banning _Calvin and Hobbes_, a comic strip so family friendly that it ran uncensored in the most conservative newspapers in the country for more than a decade

YES! I’d have rather it be Rust, but beggars can’t be choosers. https://devblogs.microsoft.com/typescript/typescript-native-port/
@daringfireball it feels like the only thing that would make me trust the “when does mom’s flight land?” answer is for Siri to show the work. Show me the email/text where it got the flight info. Show me the flight info with airport codes and take-off/landing times. Otherwise, if all I get is “4:30pm”, I’m not going to trust it and I’m going to have to check for myself. Treat Siri like a grade school kid in math class and make it show the work!
