The world always wins.
Into coding, biking, cooking, gaming, reading, and too much pseudo-philosophical rambling.
Currently learning Rust and C++.
Nice haul today. I don't think I'll ever get tired of opening packages. The electronics are for Japaric's Rust + microcontrollers tutorial: https://japaric.github.io/discovery/
You know you're a bike noob when a "short trip to check potential commute path" turns into a 5-hour "adventure".
Been trying to get this PR in for a while (making RustByExample part of the main Rust website), and it's finally merged! https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/46196
Years of cynical and patronizing computer security coverage have convinced my family (correctly, I suppose) that absolutely everything digital is up for grabs and true security is impossible.
This has rendered them unwilling to follow even the most basic measures to protect themselves. 😕
yesterday i nerd-sniped myself on twitter and started writing another parallel library in rust >_> https://github.com/QuietMisdreavus/polyester
realities and then sell them to other humans, turning them, eventually, into
forgeries of themselves. So we wind up with fake humans inventing fake realities and then peddling them to other fake humans."_

Bikes are great. 😍

Getting CMake to play nicely with VC++ without using Visual Studio was an experience...
Finally got a bike! Marin Fairfax SC3 for city riding. Haven't ridden a bike in months and after going down and back on the Elliot Bay Trail everything hurts.
Really enjoyed reading this article (teaching, I wanted to be a teacher long ago):
http://www.nytimes.com/2010/03/07/magazine/07Teachers-t.html
Warning: it's loooooong and it's a historical perspective on teaching teachers, but I've enjoyed it because I found the idea of investigating how to teach teachers better, instead of bashing them for how terrible they are, refreshing.
yo so I made a thread about this a while back on the birdsite but I feel the need to reiterate the main point:
Part of your organizing, antifascist & otherwise, needs to focus on developing real relationships, trust, & affinity w the people you're working with. Your organizing is just going to waste if y'all don't learn how to take care of and trust each other. I feel like peeps often get too caught up in *doing* stuff & forget about actually building relationships with the people around them
That time when you had too much to drink and you are simultaneously irrationally happy about life while being annoyed at some people.
I quite like immigration. I dislike policies that do not promote permanent residency pathways.
I want a coherent community and I don't care where people come from in order to build that. Making it easy to get temporary residency and hard to get permanent residency does not promote community building.
Stopping migrants from settling down hurts both the migrant and those who are already allowed permanent residency. It totally sucks and only fuels the tensions we see day to day around the world.

TIP YOUR LOCAL INSTANCE ADMIN.
ASK IF THEY HAVE A PATREON.
THEY DESERVE IT.
YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH BS GOES INTO KEEPING THIS THING WORKING.
I should probably be more careful with what I click on while on Mastodon.
So, the inability for users to delete their account is actually a pretty big deal.
That needs to get fixed.
