alt Hacker NewsSounds lovely, give it a try on the codex-rs which seems to be getting close to using 2K crates in their repository any time now. Takes like 30 minutes to compile on a my beefy machine and it's a goddamn TUI, not sure what's going on, and not too interested in diving into that beast either.

It’s insane. 45 minutes to build debug from scratch. Linking is super slow even in debug and that’s without LTO.
Incremental compilation is not cleaned up. Older deps pile up and don’t get cleaned.
Run out of disk space? Oh it’s just the 200+ GB codex-rs target folder.
Forget about doing worktrees.
Rust has a lot of work to do.

This thing is a monster, blows out the disk space on a Claude code web session. Will run it on my test server later and let you know.
