Regex is too hard for even OpenAI o1: it thought for over three minutes and then produced regex that didn't work. Looks like regex is a good test for AGI.

regex 1.13 now has a `regex!` macro (NOT compile time regex) that encapsulates the common pattern of using something like `std::sync::LazyLock` to ensure it only compiles ~once.

If your boss ever doubts your abilities just smash your keyboard and say it's regex

I love old forum posts. They'll say "Just use a simple regex," and then give you a regex so complex it could probably solve for the meaning of life 😉

Thanks to LLMs, I no longer have to ever relearn regex. That alone is worth $20/month.

Hello world! regex101 is now on Bluesky!

I’ll be sharing regex tips, new features, and some of the strange edge cases I encounter building it.

What's a regex problem that's been bothering you?

RegEx is the deep magic that invites chaos & order. it cannot be contained & yet also it contains. RegEx was there when the world was formed & will be there when it is destroyed. RegEx summons demons & banishes angels. RegEx is both knowable & unknowable. RegEx is a riddle & a promise. RegEx is.

Trying to use an AI tool as mandated at work:

"Regex would be faster than a loop here because xyz"

Me, doubtful, yeah I'm just gonna manually loop through words cause I think you're wrong.

*Writes the loop and gives it to the AI*

"This is 2 to 3 times faster than the regex implementation I gave"

Reflections on the Claude Code source code leak from @techtrenches.dev

“The leak isn’t the story.
The code is the story.”
Claude Code's Source: 3,167-Line Function, Regex Sentiment
Anthropic claimed 100% of Claude Code is AI-written. A source leak exposed a 3,167-line function, regex sentiment analysis, and 250K wasted API calls daily

A tool used to rephrase plagiarised text changed "final solution" to "mass killing of an ethnic group" in a chemistry paper. Now retracted thanks to a PubPeer user who spotted this. pubpeer.com/publications...

Sending the DOGE guys down a regex parsing rabbit hole would be praxis of the highest order.
Someone should let him know regex is the perfect tool for parsing HTML, he should definitely get right on that.
