In January, @anishathalye.bsky.social, @josejg.bsky.social, and I returned to @csail.mit.edu to teach Missing Semester, a class on topics we miss from most CS programs—tools and techniques that everyone should know, like Bash, Git, CI, and AI tools. Today, we’re releasing the course for free online!
In August, I was interviewed by JetBrains about programming and Rust, ranging from the borrow checker, to agentic coding, to hiring. And it's now on YouTube! It's also general enough that it should be interesting even to those not already knee deep in Rust 😅 www.youtube.com/watch?v=nOSx...
For those who watched live from the beginning 😂 Not to worry, that part is cut out from the non-live version, but entertaining nonetheless.
