But though the changes are small, I have been reluctant to propose them, because they will make reasoning about the shell internals too complex: it is difficult in C++ to check and enforce what crosses thread boundaries.

This is Rust’s bread and butter: we will encode thread requirements into our types, making it explicit and compiler-checked, via Send and Sync. Rust will allow turning on concurrent mode in a safe way, with a manageable increase in complexity, finally enabling this feature.

Pi-Hole or something else for network ad blocking?

I’ve been aware of pi-hole for a while now, but never bothered with it because I do most web browsing on a laptop where browser extensions like uBlock origin are good enough. However, with multiple streaming services starting to insert adds into my paid subscriptions, I’m looking to upgrade to a network blocker that will...
