# Rustup 1.25 Will Bring Easier MSVC Build Tools Installation

While the MinGW toolchain is nice (if its functionality covers your needs) the MSVC toolchain is native to Windows and thus is selected by default. One of the issues with this is that while rustup has been providing some vague instructions about Visual C++ prerequisites, it was still greatly confusing for beginners - there're like thousands of threads with questions about what exactly should the user install and from where.

So, I'm happy to see that rustup's devs have finally found a way to conveniently install the prerequisites without breaking Microsoft's distribution requirements. It's still optional and requires manual approval from the user but should help to reduce the confusion.

More details in the /r/rust announcement.

We never learned about significant software accidents and errors during our education or professional careers. Sometimes, we would see an event in the news and follow it, but that was often the extent of our learning. Rarely did we find that lessons were codified and applied to our work.

As our world grows more dependent on software, developers everywhere need to study historical software problems, their causes, and the implications for how we build our software. We cannot afford to keep repeating the same mistakes, especially those that cause harm.

Нейросеть DALL-E 2 создала собственный язык: правда, не совсем, и совсем не?

TL;DR: В общем, говорить с определённой уверенностью можно о том, что генераторы изображений на основе нейросетей способны генерировать изображения на «тарабарские» запросы, причём в том, что именно генерируется, прослеживаются определённые статистические закономерности.
