blog.rust-lang.org VS proposals

Historically, such serious bugs get communicated broadly and addressed very quickly via security advisory blog posts and on https://rustsec.org.

This font gets double-bolded :D – Alfa Slab One is already bold, and then font-weight: 800 makes the browser "bold it even more". Rust blog also had the same issue. So instead of dimming the font-weight of titles, you should instead just tell the browser that Alfa Slab One is already bold:

Indeed! Thanks for pointing this out, I just opened a PR to mention the additional mitigation.

You're correct that there's currently no language-level way to get at the raw discriminant in this case, you need to use unsafe and inspect the discriminant directly. I agree that the blog post should mention this limitation, here's a PR to fix it: https://github.com/rust-lang/blog.rust-lang.org/pull/1056

Do you want to stay up to date? The official blog, This Week in Rust, This Week in Rust Docs, The official reddit

The official Rust blogs are actually pretty good: https://blog.rust-lang.org/

Note that "separate" is not obviously correct to me. The statement about Iran was added to the release announcement via discussion from the "leadership chat,", and my understanding is that the leadership chat contains "project directors on the Rust Foundation board".

As a Rust team member, I have no earthly clue. Maybe it's the Core team? Or the blog author? Or the release team? Also no clue whatsoever as to the process for determining which cause to promote or even which causes are not allowed to be promoted (if any?).

The blog is on github, and this is the commit that added it: https://github.com/rust-lang/blog.rust-lang.org/pull/1043/co...

What is the "leadership chat"? See: https://blog.rust-lang.org/inside-rust/2022/10/06/governance...

(I had thought the "leadership chat" was supposed to be a temporary group working to resolve a governance problem precipitated by the mod team resignation last year (of which I was a member), but it appears to be a decision making body at this point.)

No, I don't think so. And as far as I can tell, this wasn't made by the release team, but by the leadership chat.

The proposal of "syntactic tail calls" to provide an explicit syntax for tail calls, co-championed by committee members from Mozilla (responsible for SpiderMonkey, the engine of Firefox) and Microsoft, was a response to these concerns. However, this proposal is now listed among the TC39's inactive proposals, possibly due to diminished interest, which may stem from the infrequent use of tail recursive functions in JavaScript.

Then there are proposals for new features. Some proposals move through quickly, though some of these will never make it into the spec. They can be available months or years in advance through Babel plugins and other tools. Be aware that these allow you to write code that may never become valid JavaScript, but they can be useful for simplicity and readability, so long as you understand the requirements.

TC39 Proposals

As for what’s new, well here https://github.com/tc39/proposals/blob/main/finished-proposals.md you can research anything from that list that doesn’t look familiar to you.

The latest version of the ECMAScript standard is referred to as ES2022. However, there are almost always something new cooking, which you can use (ESNext) if yo have a javascript engine that implements it, or if you use a polyfill which implements some particular feature for earlier javascript engines.
