I have a bunch of open tasks on my GH repos, so I tried asking ChatGPT and Claude to write a card-based web UI that showed some random open issues. ChatGPT gave me something that worked, but the Claude mock-ups look better (and render inline!).

On the challenge of writing accurate source spans on Unicode source code: https://reedmullanix.com/posts/unicode-source-spans.html Also (see footnotes) a fair number of LSP clients assume UTF-8 despite early versions of LSP mandating UTF-16!

I've just squeezed another 5% of performance out of difftastic by finding a few HashSet values that weren't FxHashSet. I do wonder whether hash DoS resistance is a good default. Sure, Rust programs are often pretty fast anyway, but it feels like a different threat model to the rest of Rust.
