stefankaon Error sets with eros: the missing piece in Rust error handling

Seems like the cleanest approach to error handling in Rust that I have seen yet. Great work!

stefankaon Docker Sandboxes – Disposable, isolated sandboxes for AI agents

Interesting. I’ve been trying to use bwrap, slirp4netns, and mitmproxy to create a simple Python script to get save shell for development. But it’s a huge time sink (and I might resort to podman)

Digital sovereignty. Europe is a big market and Motorola could gain traction this way
