Deno started in Go, but was rewritten in Rust before 0.1

There is also MLKit which is pretty interesting in how it handles memory, it is region based with some fallback to garbage collection.

There is actually work on adding autodiff to Rust, maybe not really first class citizen, but at least build in: https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/autodiff/index.html (it is still at a pre-RFC stage so it is not something that soon will be added)

Will this be the reason for the Stoll prize to be set up?

Instead of a medal it should be a klein bottle of course.

GitHub have some quite nice feeds

If you want all the commits from a repo you can do something like: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/commits/main/.atom

And if you now only is interested in the num module you can do: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/commits/main/library/std/s...

Also it is quite a leap to the conclusion that HVDC eqipment will not have long lead times as well especially since there are quite a few less companies making it.

It's not OpenType that can execute wasm it's a experimental extension in HarfBuzz so compared to this it does not work online since it is not enabled for the HarfBuzz builds in Chrome or Firefox. Which makes this more cool to show of online.

The history section of the repo clears it up [0]

> LibreSprite originated as a fork of Aseprite, developed by David Capello. Aseprite used to be distributed under the GNU General Public License version 2, but was moved to a proprietary license on August 26th, 2016.

> This fork was made on the last commit covered by the GPL version 2 license, and is now developed independently of Aseprite.

Also I am not really sure if you can convince me that this is a open source license: https://github.com/aseprite/aseprite/blob/main/EULA.txt

Not that it is a unreasonable license, but it is not open source.
