Always like the idea of dagger, and surprisingly my old old pipeline still runs (sdk based) with thr newer version. Still don't like writing go for pipelines tho - a #roq version might be nice, time to check out all the new goodness!
"When you peel off the layers of proprietary YAML and jargon, CI today boils down to running shell scripts on a server, and reading the logs. With such a primitive execution and data model, waste is everywhere, and it gets worse as you scale"

Cloudflare is taking ownership of tsrs, a port of TypeScript to Rust. It's 8x faster and uses 70% less memory than TypeScript 7.0.
We are not forking TypeScript – we are working with the TypeScript team and as a result 7.1 is already ~2.5x faster, too.

Finally got my invite to @superlogical this morning and only barely scratching the surface, whilst trying to sort out final things at work. One thing I've wanted in #jujutsu for ages is a way to simply track which change-id I'm testing when running `jj run`, so I wrapped rex.

That's because it copied the same chunk of memory as many times as the frame's pixel width... for no reason 💀

If we don't trust agents, why do we trust the environments they build in?
Containers aren't enough. Shared kernels aren't enough. Every piece of software will need real isolation.
we've built minimal to give every agent its own microVM on your machine. You decide exactly what it can touch.
Isolation should be the default.

Blick 0.4 is out! Huge new features: We added scripting support!
Also image sequences, markers, clip sync, flip and mirror, and a long list of editing improvements.
JEP 544 (openjdk.org/jeps/544), the remaining part of Leyden has landed in JDK mainline. So now we can do this! This source launcher involves javac compilation, that is the bulk of the work here.
