Readit NewsCodeCrafters has an amazing "Build your own Git" [1] tutorial too. Jon Gjengset has a nice video [2] doing this challenge live with Rust.
Is there a crowd indexed style search index? Like instead of relying on the crawling completely you rely on a maybe like an extension in your browser that indexes as people are using their browser. Or maybe indexing your site to this index instead of waiting to be crawled.
I think Brave Search does something similar with their Web Discovery Project, but I don't think it indexes full web pages from users.

Why don't Mozilla make or use such engine in its browser? Make something really native for dealing with ads and annoyances. The irony is Brave smartly uses Rust which were forsaken by Mozilla. I know Mozilla seems to have something for ads but honestly I don't even know what it really does, beside its shield icon.
Almost all of Mozilla's money comes from Google, an ad company. Mozilla wouldn't want to bite the hand that feeds them.

Perhaps reserve your mind being blown for situations where the GP hasn’t confused pixel count and pixel density.
Zed “supports” 1080p monitors just fine. Supports is in quotes because it doesn’t need to do anything nor care at all about the count of pixels on the screen.
If you can call the left image [1] "supporting 1080p" I guess Zed supports it. But it looks like VS Code and other editors somehow support it better without getting blurry.
Keep in mind that Zed developers [2] consider blurry fonts on low DPI displays a Priority 1 issue, and a reproducible bug that is commonly encountered.
I'm sure if there was no blurry font issue with Zed, they would just close this bug report.

I think the switch statement design is a foot gun: defaults to fall-through when empty and break when there is a body.

This feels very natural though, in a "principle of least surprise" kinda way. This is what you'd expect a properly designed switch statement to do.

Oops, picked a bad week to migrate from Cloudflare Pages to something custom in Rust.

Hi! Do you happen to have that elevator music saved? I'm curious what it sounded like.
I had it saved, but it was 3-4 computers ago. I don't think I still have it, and if I did I wouldn't know where.
Aside from the article, I only found these scripts on my disk related to this project.
listen_2046.py and send_2046.py

They get forked and stay open source? At least this is what happens to all the popular ones. You can't really un-open-source a project if users want to keep it open-source.
