The Rust website is already good, but there's a slew of improvements on the way:

Awesome Emacs package of the day: auto-yasnippet: https://github.com/abo-abo/auto-yasnippet/ Brilliant for writing verbose text when macros aren't suitable.
Emacs command of the day: M-x ffap. If point is on a file path or URL, it opens it. Invaluable!
Key ghosting: which/how many keys on a keyboard can you press simultaneously? http://t.co/rdt4HtWkaJ (researched by an Emacser, of course!)
Getting ABI calling conventions right is hard. Here's a compiler author who tests by fuzzing! http://t.co/15f866afFM
Excellent article on Forth design: https://moonforth.github.io/ (entertainingly an implementer is called a 'Forthwright')
What Happens Next Will Amaze You http://t.co/oeRo6ONCkv Superb state of the union talk on web trends with(out) privacy.
Are there any mailing lists that offer syntax highlighting? I feel like it should exist, but I haven't found any.
"developing a [JS] library that specifically targets a framework is a waste of time" http://t.co/pvdg3f8xq1 -- Why I Write Plain JS Modules
The Evolution of Lisp: http://t.co/HOBoUcVMGo (really interesting paper, including some comments on failed experiments)
I'm really impressed by GitLab. It's getting polished, nicely integrated, and provides a serious option for a fully FOSS dev stack.
I haven't yet managed to write a Rust without wanting nightly. Macros are lovely to use but compiler plugins aren't stable.
Is it reasonable to implement + on strings, even though it's not commutative? Interesting comparisons to matrices:
'Boxes' as an alternative to files as the fundamental API: http://t.co/9RPbr9RjNI
The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly: The Unix Legacy: http://t.co/SLQkPiDxUJ (some great comments over unix design intentions vs what happened)
