To celebrate the release of the 3000th xkcd comic, I will be ranking all 3000 comics on a tier list starting at 10 AM ET on Friday, 2024-10-18. Based on a small sample, I expect it to take 8-10 hours (including occasional small breaks). I'm using a custom program I wrote just for this stream using Rust & egui: https://github.com/HactarCE/xkcd-rank

I'll be raising funds for the Foundation to Decrease World Suck: https://fightworldsuck.org/ They're building a maternal & infant care hospital in Sierra Leone, and distributing funds to many other charities too.

:: ABOUT ME :: I'm developing Hyperspeedcube, the most powerful simulator for 4D+ Rubik's cubes and other puzzles (also Rust + egui). If high-dimensional twisty puzzles sounds like something you're interested in, check out the links below and subscribe to my channel! I plan to make videos about how Hyperspeedcube works and guides for learning hypercubing.

Super excited with where Quadratic is going! I've been long frustrated that performance and reliability of web apps is so awful, and the fact that Quadratic emphasizes both of those as core product features is a significant reason I'm working there now as the main Rust dev.

Currently the classic Excel-style formulas are implemented in Rust, and we're planning on writing the spreadsheet core + multiplayer server in Rust as well.
