My guy don cook! 🙌
I've been building @dropstationapp, and I think it's time I started talking about it properly.
It's a platform I've been working on, and I'm genuinely excited about what it can become.
Let me tell you about it. 🧵

I grew up playing The Sims 3 and always wondered what it would be like if the Sims lived in a world inspired by ours.🤷🏽♀️
Then I saw @eureka_seamless riding a danfo through Lagos, and it sparked an idea: Lagos Life Sims.
Take a look around. Who knows, you might make a new friend in the Sims world.

"I spent a lot of time going over the design decisions involved here, trying my best to complain about async Rust, only to end up going “Oh. Yeah. That’s reasonable. That makes sense. I can see why they did it that way.” every step of the way."

Before v1.99 → Rust could only consume C variadic functions.
With 1.99 → Rust can also produce them.

This perspective only makes sense if you've been programming with Ruby's nonsense.
Rust is so easy to read that I can absorb entire enterprise codebases in a single evening and immediately start working on it.
I'm not even particularly good at Rust but very productive.

Yes, you can STOP writing code by hand.
But only if you WERE doing it for years.
Then you can prompt and review wisely, and keep the quality high.
If you never wrote code by hand and think you don't need to learn it...
Well, good luck.

I might be the only person in the world that likes looking at Rust code. I think it's super pretty.

Pro tip if you're using Postgres:
Set `application_name` in your app's DB connector/ORM/connection URL
This allows you to see human-readable service names for where queries + connections are coming from in pg_stat_activity/dashboards
Super useful to have configured!

🎉 Such a day at Rustconf!!!
OpenAI and Canonical are part of the Rust foundation!!!
It feels we are officially ready for critical adoption!!!

If you are just like me and you have no idea what everyone is talking about, I just spent 20 hours studying Navier-Stokes. Here is exactly what has been solved.
Spoiler: it's less impressive than it appears

10,000 OPENAI AGENTS SOLVED A $1 MILLION PROBLEM IN 88 HOURS
For nearly 90 years, mathematicians could not determine whether the Navier-Stokes equations can break down while describing fluid motion.
-> Now OpenAI says it has found the answer.
The company deployed around 10,000 agents powered by an internal model significantly more capable than GPT-6 Astra.
They worked in parallel, exchanged 2.7 million messages and generated roughly 130 billion output tokens.
The digital team produced a proof in 88 hours.
The system showed that an initially motionless fluid can develop a singularity under certain conditions. Its velocity grows without bound within a finite amount of time.
GPT-6 Astra then spent another 17 hours formalizing and verifying the result in Lean.
The computation cost millions of dollars, but the company does not plan to claim the prize.
The proof must also survive independent scrutiny from mathematicians.
OpenAI just demonstrated a new model for scientific discovery.
A single AI is no longer trying to replace one scientist.
Thousands of agents can now form a digital research lab and compress decades of human work into days ↓

🎉 CUDA Rust is here! Team 🟩 ❤️ 🦀
You can now write CUDA kernels in plain Rust, two ways: cuda-oxide (SIMT) and cutile-rs (Tile).
