Inspired by @jonhoo's `brr` I wrote #SIMD splitting iterator which seem to work. Now, I'm not sure if I should be proud of myself, or sad I reinvented the wheel...

For those interested: it has limitation to byte slices, but it's correct for #unaligned data (subject to future optimisations); uses nightly.

Now it needs #benchmarks

A Job Search Story

My job search started in May 2025 when I learned I’d be subject to redundancies. This sums up 11 months of effort to find a job.

I assume from taking a peek into search result that there isn't any #Rust #event in #Munich on 5 or 6 May. Anyone willing to meet for a beer and talk about #Rust? In English or Polish only 😉

I turned off #LinkedIn #job ads notification yesterday... that's actually a #relief bigger than I thought.

This feature is fundamentally broken, sending jobs I've already seen multiple times or jobs not accepting candidates any more.

Offering an #opportunity for a #job in in Abu Dhabi today to someone from #Europe is either a bad #joke or pure #sadism.

Even #pay on the offer isn't great.

Data based on 334 job applications.

#UK #jobmarket today:

1. Expect ~60% of application just #ghosted (left unanswered)
2. Expect high rejection rate at first interview, when they tell you're not fit despite 95% match to the role description; or change of the role they're hiring for after 2 weeks
3. Expect hidden ageism and process not aligned to your style of work
4. Expect killer technical question about stack details you can't know w/o working with it atm or doing some research.
5. Expect burn out low self-esteem
