Twenty years maintaining the WiX Toolset
I can recommend Wixsharp (https://github.com/oleg-shilo/wixsharp), you no longer have to learn the insane wix xml syntax to create an installer.

In the year 2023, what is the best way to deploy/distribute a WPF Application?
Also try wix# (https://github.com/oleg-shilo/wixsharp) - it makes things much easier
-
Best option for getting a binary to cross-platform customers?
Windows: The Microsoft-recommended way is .msi files but, if you're not willing to pay for something like InstallShield or a professional "How to use WiX XML course", making them is going to be painful even with something like WiXSharp, so my advice is to offer a Zip file and an Inno Setup installer. (Which things like Chocolatey can build on)
-
Looking for easy way for distribution of crates
Wix# is better, but still not as easy, and it depends on .NET, which makes it a hassle to get set up in Wine compared to how, being written in Delphi and using itself as an installer, Inno Setup is practically Rust-like in how easy it is to set up in Wine.

How do I intergret cargo in Rust code
If you really want to bundle a compiler, my advice would be to just use an installer like Inno Setup or NSIS or the WiX Toolset via WixSharp and have it either download or bundle the installer for the compiler.
-
Forced static linking?
Speaking of MSI, I'd suggest using Wix# instead of WiX directly.

PEP 594 “Removing dead batteries from the standard library” accepted
The functionality in the msilib module is somewhat low-level anyway (it basically just opens the database for you and leaves the arcane incantations required for doing anything as an exercise for the reader) so it probably wouldn't be hugely difficult to replace it with ctypes calling msi.dll directly.
If I were to replace my msilib-based installer, I would migrate to Wix# [1], a fantastic high-level wrapper for WiX that lets you express your installer in a few lines of C# (and then generates the thousands of lines of XML that WiX needs, but you don't need to touch it). I wouldn't have used msilib if I had known about Wix# at the time.

Creating an installer for your app is super easy! Quick video showing how to create a setup file
Adding that folks should look into using WixSharp especially if there is a need to create a more customizable UI for the installer. The instructions for building the installer is all written in C# including any custom actions required by your installer project.

Bitcoin Sentiment Analysis using Python and X (Formerly Twitter)
Thankfully, Python, the go-to coding language for loads of developers, is here to save the day. It's got some awesome features for diving into text sentiment analysis. With cool libraries like Tweepy, we can sift through X(Twitter) data and snag those interesting tweets about Bitcoin. And then there's TextBlob, a clever tool for understanding the sentiment in text. When it's time to clean up and organize all that data, libraries like pandas and numpy are there to help out. And let's not forget about matplotlib, the master of visualisations that can help us see the trends in sentiment crystal clear. Armed with these tools, developers can really dig deep into social media data and figure out what the general public thinks about Bitcoin.

PEP 744 – JIT Compilation
> It provides a meaningful performance improvement for at least one popular platform (realistically, on the order of 5%).
At first it will not provide a large boost, but it will set the foundations for larger gains in subsequent releases. They link a list of some proposed improvements already underway, with improvement estimates, at https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/115802

Featured Mod of the Month: Phil Ashby
After that, with the basics of software engineering understood, I would move on to a wider use language, with a bigger ecosystem to employ, most likely Python. This would expose me to large system design / distributed systems and architectural challenges...
