Once again considering blogging. In usual fashion I built the entire site before writing a single word. At least the theme turned out nice enough to share — a newspaper-inspired theme for Zola called #Broadside.

Answering own question: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/137487 happened.

#Rust 1.95 is supposed to stabilise `assert_matches!()` macro, but... it's still unstable in that release despite being present in 1.95-beta.

Does anyone know what happened?

"A formal mathematical proof from MIT and a preregistered empirical study in Science from Stanford arrived within a month of each other, and together they make the same unsettling argument: the danger of AI chatbots is not what they get wrong. It is how enthusiastically they agree with everything we get wrong. Not a chatbot that lies to you, but a mirror that reflects your beliefs back at you, slightly amplified, every single time."

The Echo Chamber in Your Pocket - UNU Campus Computing Centre

Two landmark 2026 studies from MIT and Stanford show AI chatbots don't just flatter us — they erode our grip on reality and our willingness to repair relationships.
