Need to internalize the "write more stuff instead of brain dumping on everyone" thing, I really do

Let me give it a shot: "Catamorphism" is a way to turn a data container into a different kind of container, without changing the data, so you can do different stuff with the same data.

We've got to figure out how to talk good and stuff.

Had a gig wrap up a little earlier than expected, I should have availability starting July or so. As always: if you need help with Embedded, Rust, or similar things, shoot me a message! If you're a user of postcard, p-rpc, or are interested in the more experimental new ergot: shoot me a message!

(FPH was awful and I agree with the need to moderate things like that. But, the before/after of the front page was very clearly different, and Reddit was never again as good of a breaking news source afterwards.)

Twitter's algorithm underwent immediate revision after the Arab Spring. After FPH, Reddit's front page algorithm underwent revision. Etc. Almost none of the networks want to be the conduit of the zeitgeist; they want to offer control of the zeitgeist to advertisers and other clients.

i'm just gonna bump this post whenever i see someone describe people who hold different opinions as "cultists with a weak disposition" or something similar truly nothing saps me of creative energy more than reading toxic polemics like that

🔥 Closures in #rustlang Have you heard about closures, but never used them? Did you get stuck trying to understand them? Then this thread is for you! Fn, FnMut, FnOnce, capturing variables, what is all that? Let's break it down 🧵👇

Is there a cargo plugin that goes through your codebase and lints on any visibility qualifier that could be shrinked in scope? 🤔 That is if there is some definition `pub(crate) thing` but that is only ever used in the module itself I want something that tells me, "This `pub(crate)` can be omitted"

"Inchoate" my rear end. Who's in charge of making up words? Do they know they misspelled "incohate"? Absurd!
