Rusty Cascading Style Sheets (RCSS) Tip Download the VSCode extension for syntax highlighting! Rusty Cascading Style Sheets (RCSS) is a styling language that brings Rust-inspired syntax to CSS. It combines the robustness of Rust with SASS-like features such as nesting and variables for cleaner, more maintainable styles. let variable: "#FFFFFF"; let breakpoint: "768px"; fn padding() { padding: 20px; } .container { padding(); h2 { color: blue; } } h4 { width: 50%; color: green; } /* MOBILE STYL

I went on a little low-level Nix adventure yesterday and early this morning because of this excellent blog post. In it, Farid builds up the simplest possible Nix derivation—making a file that has the contents “hello world”. Here’s what I like about it: No Nix language; just the really fiddly low-level bits of building a derivation by hand It’s incremental, building from a little friendly JSON blob and incrementally adding scarier parts It only uses two low-level Nix commands One thing that I

I’m new to Substack—this is my first post. Hey, I’m Matt. I founded Vizzly as a first-time entrepreneur and exited in under three years, selling the company to WPP, the world’s largest advertising organization. A few months after starting the company, we were accepted into Y-Combinator, and I spent about four months engrossed in San Francisco’s tech hustle culture learning from people much smarter than I. I’m not anti-SF (far from it; I have some incredible memories there), but I didn’t buy int

When people say Rust is a “safe language”, they often mean memory safety. And while memory safety is a great start, it’s far from all it takes to build robust applications. Memory safety is important but not sufficient for overall reliability. In this article, I want to show you a few common gotchas in safe Rust that the compiler doesn’t detect and how to avoid them. Even in safe Rust code, you still need to handle various risks and edge cases. You need to address aspects like input validatio

Forward-looking: Recent big game releases appear to confirm that ray tracing and path tracing are the future of graphics rendering. However, these techniques remain prohibitively computationally expensive. The next major update to Microsoft's DirectX API aims to address this and facilitate broader adoption of the technology. Microsoft's GDC presentation this week offered a glimpse into the future of DirectX ray tracing support. The company claims that DirectX Raytracing 1.2 could help developer

Austral is a new systems programming language. You can think of it as Rust: The Good Parts or a modernized, stripped-down Ada. It features a strong static type system, linear types, capability-based security, and strong modularity. This article is an introduction to the language. The first few sections are high-level: they are about the design and the mindset of the language. The next two sections, about linear types and capability-based security, are much more detailed and technical: they are

Introduction This blog post introduces a new method for utilizing the Overwriting modprobe_path technique. Since this patch was merged last year, it is no longer possible to trigger modprobe_path in the Upstream kernel by executing dummy files. Overwriting modprobe_path The Overwriting modprobe_path technique is, in simple terms, a method for achieving privilege escalation by overwriting the modprobe_path symbol when an Arbitrary Address Write (AAW) primitive is available. Due to its simplici

In brief: Sunnyvale, California-based startup Bolt Graphics has introduced a new GPU design that it claims can smoke the competition in rendering, HPC, and gaming workloads. It is a bold claim, and one that will need proof to support. The Zeus GPU is "orders of magnitude" faster than what is currently on the market. Thanks to expandable memory, Zeus solutions can accommodate up to 384 GB in a PCIe card or up to 2.25 TB per card in a 2U server. A full rack of Zeus 2U servers can be paired with a

For many people, coding is about telling a computer what to do and having the computer perform those precise actions repeatedly. With the rise of AI tools like ChatGPT, it's now possible for someone to describe a program in English and have the AI model translate it into working code without ever understanding how the code works. Former OpenAI researcher Andrej Karpathy recently gave this practice a name—"vibe coding"—and it's gaining traction in tech circles. The technique, enabled by large la

I was talking to a friend about how to add a directory to your PATH today. It’s something that feels “obvious” to me since I’ve been using the terminal for a long time, but when I searched for instructions for how to do it, I actually couldn’t find something that explained all of the steps – a lot of them just said “add this to ~/.bashrc ”, but what if you’re not using bash? What if your bash config is actually in a different file? And how are you supposed to figure out which directory to add an
