* '''Browser Compatibility Update''' -- Last week, MDN and Open Innovation launched a new tool giving developers an easy way to report browser compatibility data issues in MDN tables. The tool allows developers to report issues with any of the 10,000 web platform features and almost a dozen browsers in the browser compatibility repository. The tool also aggregates reports and allows MDN maintainers to prioritize and follow up on reported issues, helping us focus on fixing issues with the biggest impact This MVP release was intended to determine if developers would use the feature, and as we collected more than 200 signals per day on average (for a total of over 1,000 in a week), we will move forward on the next iteration.
* '''Rust 1.37.0 Released''' -- The Rust team is happy to [https://blog.rust-lang.org/2019/08/15/Rust-1.37.0.html announce] a new version of Rust, 1.37.0. Highlights include support for vendoring dependencies so they can be copied for reference locally; the ability to declare a default binary in a multi-binary crate and PGO—profile guided optimization—which can meaningfully speed up resulting code. PGO is especially interesting as it allows the compiler to optimize code based on feedback from real workloads. It works by compiling the program to optimize in two steps -- a first run against sample data to generate a profile, and a second build using that profile data to make better decisions about code placement, inlining, and other optimizations. Also, we'd like to thank two new sponsors of Rust's infrastructure who provided the resources needed to make Rust 1.37.0 happen: Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft Azure.
