We're starting to see some agentic Rust forks (or alternative implementations) focused on iteration speed. More-so than the specific projects, I'm interested in the ideas being explored (and how they could evolve upstream), so wanted to collate a few here...

Avalonia UI
@AvaloniaUIOct 19
Someone ported VLC 3’s UI to Avalonia on Windows, macOS, and Linux in just 16 working days (290 commits). Absolute madness. 🤯 Got an Avalonia Port Challenge entry of your own? You have until this Friday, Oct 23 at 23:59 UTC! Reminder: The write-up is scored, so don’t forget to document what broke along the way.

Elevated permissions prompts are a massive problem for agents. What's the general wisdom here on how to handle that without just completely turning off UAC or the Windows Firewall?

Microsoft killed WMIC, so I rewrote it in Rust. Then Jason Ulbright gave it macOS support and started adding WinRM over HTTP. Sysadmin trauma is now cross-platform. Blame/thank this absolute menace: github.com/jasonulbright github.com/adamgell/wmic

I built a WMIC replacement in Rust because apparently I couldn't pick a normal hobby. Old scripts, familiar commands, classic output, interactive mode. Signed builds for ARM64/x64/x86. v0.1.0-dev. Please break it: github.com/adamgell/wmic #pleasefuckingtaketheaiawayfromme

Claude Code Desktop is now so much aware of its own capabilities and how it can work with you, like spinning off subsessions. I think of this almost like a v2, so many small details went into make it great.

Switching to codegen-units = 1 made the uv build ~50% faster, cut peak memory by 67%, and reduced binary size by 17%. I was really surprised by this... Increasing the number of codegen units typically _improves_ build times.

We received ~100 submissions just last day 😅 Not going to lie: it is VERY satisfying reading through all these non-AI essays written mostly by devs on how they see the industry changing. Human writing + deep thinking >> AI writing You’ll also soon be able to read many of them

@GergelyOroszSep 26
One week left! We’ve gotten 4 essays in total far. This will either be the least competitive $10K / $2.5K win and feature in The Pragmatic Engineer, or the most last-minute responses we receive.

I've always disliked that I couldn't test Kerberos in CI easily and so I've written a #PowerShell module called Obol that can setup a KDC and configure the environment for the platform you are on github.com/jborean93/PowerSh….
