After watching My 2026 Rust Toolkit, I worked through the tools one by one on my Debian machine instead of blindly installing everything. From Clippy, Bacon, cargo-nextest, and cargo-generate to Serde, Rayon, Criterion, SQLx, Leptos, and more, this is my reference guide to what each tool does, what I installed, and what I want to explore next.
I added cargo-seek to my Rust toolbox and discovered an excellent terminal-based way to explore the crate ecosystem. From searching for Burn to inspecting versions, features, dependencies, and documentation, cargo-seek turns crate discovery into a fast, interactive TUI experience—all without leaving the terminal
Installing Omarchy 4 in VMware Workstation on Debian led to a black screen, an enormous pointer, outdated configuration instructions, and even a temporarily missing VM entry. Here is how VMware Tools, corrected display scaling, and Omarchy’s new Lua configuration finally produced a beautiful working Hyprland desktop.
Rustup gives you stable and nightly side by side — here's what the next-gen trait solver rewrite actually means, and a full rehearsal of the cargo-to-GitHub workflow, gh CLI install included, on Debian.
A broken npm symlink, a 400 from Claude extra usage, and a home directory full of every project on the machine. Then one repo, four tools, three commits.
Oracle Database Free 26ai runs locally in Docker. Claude Desktop talks to that same instance in natural language over MCP, while SQL Developer stays on the classic GUI—one database, two ways in.
It was the wee hours of Friday morning, one of those nights where sleep wasn’t happening and I ended up down a Wayback Machine rabbit hole instead. On a whim I typed in bootupcomputers.com just to see what, if anything,…
Every so often you stumble across a handful of sites that quietly become part of your regular workflow. These nine have earned a permanent spot in my bookmarks bar — a mix of dataset repositories, visual explainers, and tools that…
What started as a simple desire to explore Zed’s GPU-accelerated UI framework quickly turned into a multi-hour adventure through dependency errors, missing system libraries, and truncated terminal pastes. The goal was straightforward: get a basic GPUI application running on Debian,…
From neurons on a whiteboard to models nobody can inspect. A short path through the ideas, not a product tour.
