I've been quite keen on the new FFI too - apologies if this is old news, but have you tried the [0] jextract stuff for some of the boilerplate gubbins?

No! Thanks for the callout! That would certainly help on my path. My main goal was to insulate calls to avoid overly complicated reference counting when integrating large native surfaces into as Java program, but certainly an important aspect is getting the function signatures to target in the first place. I threw something bad together to work sort of like this (testing using proton), but I'm more than happy to bin it for something that just-works.

Intellij (and all the other variations) has something very similar to this called [0]HttpClient. Being able to commit and basically just read the file is very useful. You can also do validation and scripting with it too.

I now use archive.ph to read these types of article now. Medium as a platform is awful and the constant nag to signup just puts me off so much.

So you're using a page that stole my article. Thank you

Ooo, nice, thanks!

I've been a happy Kagi user for a few months now. As someone else has already mentioned, shopping etc is often better elsewhere, but for 95% of my search I use Kagi exclusively.

> your toughest career problems are less frequently technical but political, interpersonal, and organizational.

I feel this statement is spot on.

The Long Earth series is fantastic. I'm not a huge fan of Baxter's work but these books are among my fave scifi reads.

Interesting. I did not care for the Long Earth series. But... I could always tell when Pratchett took over the dialog, and loved those points.

I love Guards but would also throw in Thief of Time which is a fabulous read

but mutations have been in there since the beginning IIRC
