I find it fascinating how some businesses have scheduled downtime for their websites (e.g. my electricity provider last weekend), but others don't. I suspect it's primarily culture. You generally need to turn off electricity to do work, so your other tooling may reflect that.

I'm experimenting with jj this weekend. It seems pretty nice so far, but the mental model is pretty different from git. For example, there's no `checkout` command. You do `jj new ABC` to switch to a commit, which creates a new empty commit on top of ABC.

lib rs has a bunch of interesting statistics about the number of crate authors, the number of dependencies, etc. For example, weekday traffic is now 2.3x of weekend traffic, so presumably more folks are using Rust in their day job.
