🎧 Trying a new podcast idea — just me by myself talking about what I'm wrestling with, while walking my dog in the morning. No production value — just raw, transparent thoughts. Curious what you think and if you find it interesting!

Yet to meet a single person who does production rust and hates it @maticrobots owes it's existence to @rustlang

AI agents being able to run unit tests is SUCH a massive unlock. If you're a dev who has utilized unit tests heavily: using a tool like Claude Code makes so much sense. And if you don't yet use tests: with AI agents, don't see how you would not do it sooner or later...
