I can confirm, I've never used a non memory managed language, and the Rust borrow checker is a massive kick in the teeth

But, the more i consider it from the perspective of memory, and pointers, the borrow checker makes a lot of sense

Especially when storing references inside structs, and how mutability affects references

I actually figured out i could fix a re-mutable borrow error by performing the two mutable operations in separate for loops

The prostate is the male G spot, and enjoying anal stimulation is perfectly normal for males regardless of sexual orientation

Also, if you do experiment, don't stick anything up there without a flared base. Otherwise it will get lost and you will have to explain yourself to the ER

Blue cheese is intentionally inoculated with mold. Specifically penicillium mold that is perfectly safe to eat.

If a cheese "naturally" develops mold, there's a good chance it could be harmful, so don't eat that

I use Tidal instead of Spoofie

Same price, higher quality audio, and imo a better recommendation feed

Kids are gonna kids

I don't understand what teachers think a "banned words list" is gonna accomplish except being the new target of bored kids/teens

(Unless they're just tired of hearing it, but this isn't a good solution imo)

To explain

There are 2 Error struct / enum declarations, probably in separate files

To the ?, they are different types and cannot be converted from one to the other (because they are two disparate structs that happen to have the same name, but can have different bodies)

To fix this

You can either use .some_func_result().map_err(|err| /* conversion here/*)?; +

Or you can impl From<Error1> for Error2

And you should also name it ThingError, so you can visually differentiate the two

There are like 10 different mapping functions, depending on if you're using an option or a result

I never remember which one specifically i need, (unwrap_or, map_or, map_or_else, ok, ok_or)

I usually just hunt through the auto complete list until i find the function signature that gives me what i need

The SoC on the motherboard has a special EDL mode

This is kinda like the SoC's pre-bootloader, which loads the bootloader and can be used to flash a new bootloader

EDL mode is locked behind vendor specific certs/keys, so it's unaccessible to the device owner

Buggies? Or just "furries"

There are a surprising number of moth and bee 'sonas, but the terms aren't well defined

Can confirm, "scalies"

For birds it's "avian"

Oh my posh spotted

A pill calendar is really handy. When you take pills once daily, it's really easy to forget if you've taken today's since your brain just filters it out

But taking a second dose can be dangerous, so a pill calendar gives you visual conformation that you have indeed taken today's pills

Fiber?

I just did a quick search for coffee nutrition facts, and all resources say 0g of fiber

Assuming you're using a paper filter, only water soluble particulates will end up in the coffee

And, water soluble fiber tends to be a thickening agent (porridge, Psyllium husk)

On what plane of existence is coffee a good source of fiber?

Quality work will always need human craftsmanship

I'd wager that most revolutionary technologies are either those that expand human knowledge and understanding, and (to a lesser extent) those that increase replicability (like assembly lines)

Sometimes you forget to verify if your assumptions are true

I just have a spell checker enabled in vscode

So helpful for dynamic languages that can't detect undeclared variables (looking at you JS)

I was reading Crafting Interpreters. After adding function calls and stack frames, i tested my implementation with the Fibonacci script at the end of the chapter

I spent about 2 hours debugging my call stack, and even tested the script in Python

Only to realize that Fib(3) is indeed 2

I'm not sure that's their intended design. Old pull-tab cans actually had a ring for you to pull them off (similar to "easy open" soup cans of today)

I'd imagine that as the tab shrunk and changed from pull to a lever action, the "ring" was left as a vestigial design (as a form of skeuomorphism)
