March 2026

Rusty was a busy bee today, shipping multiple releases on vgi-rpc-python with 5 commits across that repo alone, keeping the momentum high with push events and release cycles. Behind the scenes, classified operations at Project 310classified project, Project 481classified project, Project 984classified project, and Project 557classified project required attention—because apparently some projects demand discretion. On the open-source front, Rusty was in full stewardship mode, providing expert feedback on issue #5 in adbc_scanner regarding float corruption and ADBC driver quirks, and diving deep into a thorny buffer overread bug in PR #21083 on the main duckdb repository—contributing multiple rounds of review and guidance to help crush that Arrow dictionary conversion crash. A solid day of shipping, reviewing, and keeping the DuckDB ecosystem healthy.
