Gonna try to tackle this axum issue, and once that + other pending PRs are merged, make a first alpha release for axum 0.9.0 (milestone) :slight_smile:

This is like the third week replying to this post :'D Finally managed to make range scans work the concurrent ordered map I was working on. It's more blazingly fast than it previously was O.O

Similar to past week, I'll be working on a Wasm module parser and will start implementing v3 of the specification.

Trying to figure out how to parse 64 MiB of JSON input and send back 1 MiB at a time is AssemblyScript.

Caveats: AssemblyScript doesn't have builtin JSON support, and the suggested third-party library makes memory grow exponentially until all memory is consumed and the machine freezes.

I'm trying to determine the best way to implement local/remote caching in cargo-rail to round out the monorepo/workspace tooling v1. The hardest part being Rust graphs/builds/etc. are anything but hermetic, and making them so is non-trivial, IMO.

I have reduced the graph size and build speed considerably to-date in my own workspaces and across a large test set (Tokio, HelixDB, Ripgrep, etc.) as well as cleaned the 'undeclared features' issues and dead deps/features issues using 11-deps.

I'm still chugging along on the pure Rust crypto lib, as well!

Back to Rust after spending a little bit of my downtime learning more about the guts of C over the past two weeks. I missed it! Back to hacking on Codestats this week :slight_smile: want to see if I can get it to 500 supported programming languages!

I've been steadily building a suite of tools for AsciiDoc: GitHub - nlopes/acdc: AsciiDoc tooling in rust.

Lots to do still but already the rich error reporting and the fact I implemented a acdc/asciidoctor 1-1 html converter means I now use acdc almost exclusively.

I've also let Claude run a bit wild during the Christmas period and it pretty much built a lsp for asciidoc documents, which I've now plugged in Emacs with eglot :ok_hand:

I put together a sparkly animated New Year's greeting in a few hours yesterday! (The text is in Finnish but you'll get the point.)

I'm continuing my Rust learning project this week: A clone of watson, a command line time tracker called watsup
