No, I was just quoting/linking to the sources. I don't follow or know what type of content they normally create.

I was looking for other angles, but haven't found any yet. There's clearly lots of people recording in the video broadcast by CNN. I did find the following though.

• The shooter was on a roof approximately 125m or 400ft from where Trump was standing.
• An emergency room doctor I spoke with tried to save someone’s life in the crowd
• They got the guy. Footage of Trumps potential shooter being dragged out of the rally by police
• The Shooter at the Trump Rally in Pennsylvania can be seen Dead on the Roof of a nearby Building, after being Killed by U.S. Secret Service Agents
• this BBC interview with a guy outside the security perimeter who claims he saw the shooter before he fired is absolutely wild

Rust adoption is stagnating

Is it? I would like to see some evidence for that.

When comparing crates.io statistics

By downloads, 2023-2024 has been Rust’s best year so far.

This really seems like an onion headline. ChatGPT grading ChatGPT essays.

those devs understand why their assets are so large. but if you ask a js dev why they webpack instead of compiling they just start crying and run away

GitHub also has a legal defense fund for developers. GitHub lists it on their DMCA takedown page.

When GitHub processes a DMCA takedown under our circumvention technology claim review process, we will offer the repository owner a referral to receive independent legal consultation through GitHub’s Developer Defense Fund at no cost to them.

They created this fund after claims were made against a YouTube downloader from a third party. (not Google)

I don’t know if this would be an anti-circumvention claim, but it doesn’t sound like a bad idea to ask.

I think all 3 are likely detectable.

AdNauseam is my favorite though, and probably currently the least detectable. It purposefully costs advertisers the money they bid against each other for clicks. Though, if abuse of it becomes too high, I think Google would very likely separate out users they have detected as likely bots. Though, for people who do not browse the internet very often, there might not be very much data to be confident they’re a bot.

I really don’t like that modern advertising is based on highly invasive spying. A billboard is a nuisance, but someone watching everything I do online is a stalker.

edit: It’s about making predictions about behavior worse. An issue is that advertising has conversions or sales, which most fake clicks will not become conversions… but part of it is just creating data that might cause predictions against other people for content they don’t desire. (resulting in less impactful advertising)

I’m surprised these people can pass a technical interview. I imagine the employer doesn’t test candidates for something like this to happen.

I don't really think it's discussed in this blog post, but maybe some effort should be placed on trying to see if rust-lang.org/community would be willing to link to a chosen instance. reddit has been partially hostile towards communities that have closed or tried to move their community. I also just think it makes sense for rust's governance to manage a community, but, they might just want to link to one instead for now. (until if/when Mastodon and the fediverse is more successful)

On the website for rust, they do already link to a Forum, a Discord, and a Zulip chat, so maybe they would be willing to list a fediverse community too.

edit: I just realized the poster is Discourse Staff on rust's forum.

edit 2: It's not included in the blog post, but I would really like to be able to use rust's domain in the fediverse. ex. [email protected]
