As long as people are using Rust, it will necessarily attract this kind of action. This won’t be the last attack we will see.

I think the team has handled it quite well.

The post text doesn’t seem to get displayed on some clients (Voyager) so I’ll attach it here as well:

asciinema (aka asciinema CLI or asciinema recorder) is a command-line tool for recording and live streaming terminal sessions.

This is a complete rewrite of asciinema in Rust, upgrading the recording file format, introducing terminal live streaming, and bringing numerous improvements across the board.

There are even little interactive tools for it like: cargo-wizard

Good move. Especially for incremental builds linking tends to take up quite a large percentage of the compile time.

I’ve mostly switched to mold for that reason but having a fast default linker is nice.
