It isn't blocked? I'm in France and I can see it just fine.

Testing speed is easy yes, I'm mostly wondering about the quality difference between Q6 vs Q8_K_XL for example.

Is there some indication on how the different bit quantization affect performance? IE I have a 5090 + 96GB so I want to get the best possible model but I don't care about getting 2% better perf if I only get 5 tok/s.

Show HN: Syntax highlighting library in Rust that matches VSCode

Keats — Fri, 19 Dec 2025 17:39:37 +0000

This was built to replace syntect (library using Sublime Text syntaxes for highlighting) in Zola (https://www.getzola.org/), a static site generator.

Any tips on that? My wife is starting her Etsy shop (https://www.etsy.com/shop/BravinaPrints) but she is not really getting any visits and still trying to figure out what kind of stuff she wants to draw.

I've just found out about this today, has anyone tried it?

New comment by Keats in "Agentic Coding Recommendations"

Keats — Thu, 12 Jun 2025 11:54:15 +0000

I'm not sure if it's Rust related. It manages to write the Rust code just fine, it's just that it doesn't seem to

- think of everything that is needed for a feature (fixable via planning at the beginning)

- actually follow that plan correctly

I just tried with a slightly big refactor to see if some changes would improve performance. I had it write the full plan and baseline benchmarks to disk, then let it go in yolo mode. When it was done it only implemented something like half of the planning phases and was saying the results look good despite all the benchmarks having regressed.

I've been trying Claude Code with Sonnet 4.0 for a week or so now for Rust code but it feels really underwhelming (and expensive since it's via Bedrock right now). Everytime it's doing something it's missing half despite spending a lot of time planning at the beginning of the session. What am I missing?

This is cool but it really needs a map. If I'm looking for a house i know the rough area, I don't want to see the whole country listing

It's not planned for rv, this is whole other can of worms. Something like nix/docker should work but I'm not working on that part myself so I can't comment.

Yes, if you list it in the rproject.toml from a specific repo/url/git etc it will use that

We actually do use a bit of their code for the linking phase, which they seem to have taken from Cargo. For the rest, Python and R are way too different in how they handle packages to allow sharing code.

I could be wrong but I feel like the overlap between mise and R users is likely very tiny

By default, rv will create a library folder in the same folder as your rproject.toml and there's rv activate/deactivate to add it to your loaded libs. Pretty much the same stuff as a virtualenv in Python.

Show HN: Rv, a Package Manager for R

Keats — Fri, 16 May 2025 15:37:30 +0000

We have been building a package manager for R inspired by Cargo in Rust. The main idea behind rv is to be explicit about the R version in use as well as declaring which dependencies are used in a rproject.toml file for a given project. There's no renv::snapshot equivalent, everything needs to be declared up front, the config file (and resulting lockfile) is the source of truth. This avoids issue where renv might miss information about the installation and is also easy to tweak some packages, eg install one from source and install suggests from another.

If you have used Cargo/npm/any Python package manager/etc, it will be very familiar.

> I also don't support banning her from running, but it's harder for me to understand and argue why I feel that way

Here she is advocating for life ineligibility for politicians found guilty of crimes when elected: https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x9h38r0

5 years is less than what she advocates for so she should be happy
