Also everyone: *uses anyhow or thiserror whenever a project gets greater than like 100 lines*.
To be clear, I'm not shitting on anyhow or thiserror, they both work great, as does tokio. But this pattern of not providing basic building blocks in the standard library and letting crates do it has some pros and cons. Pros because you can iterate quickly and the standard library stays small, cons because, well, supply chain attacks can now happen simply because you want to make Result more sane or use async.

#220 Exemplary Snake
Updates on what happens across the GNOME project from week to weekthisweek.gnome.org
O Maduro deve ter gostado deste prémio nobel da paz.
Estava prestes a ser atacado pelo regime do trump. Agora, como a Corina ganhou o nobel, o trump odeia-a, portanto deve tornar-se amiguinho do maduro.
Sim, tudo o que mete o trump é um recreio de escola infantil.
We took for granted that at least our tech bubble would understand what the Google Decree means for Android, #FLOSS and freedom. Unfortunately we never saw the uproar we were expecting and people just shrugged it off taking for granted that "nothing changes".
@marcprux great #FDroid post brought the issue into the light, waking up developers, users, media and (we hope) concerned authorities to the immense danger the newly proposed gatekeeping controls Google wants to add.

"Rusko mimo to zavedlo třeba Den početí - den, kdy si mají vzít páry volno z práce, aby měli sex. Program je zdánlivě propracovaný: ženy, které porodí devět měsíců poté - na Den Ruska - mohou vyhrát peníze, auta nebo ledničky od městské rady."
Teď už jen zbývá nahradit pompézní vojenské přehlídky na Rudém náměstí, kde stejně za chvilku nebude co ukazovat, hromadnými "povinně dobrovolnými" šukačkami tamtéž. @KotletaF - děláte si poznámky, doufám...

Ministerstvo sexu i styk v práci. Šílenosti Kremlu fungují přesně podle očekávání
Od začátku války na Ukrajině se úsilí Kremlu o prosazování "tradičních rodinných hodnot" a nastartování baby boomu dramaticky zintenzivnilo.Michaela Lišková (Aktuálně.cz)
Was ich über @Tutanota denke:
+ Privacy as a principle
+ Deutsch/Europäisch
+ Moralisch vertretbare Firma (looking at you Proton)
+ Nimmt Monero-Spenden an
+ grün
--- Großes Minus dafür, dass ich kein VPN/Tor nicht nutzen kann.

I talked to the makers of the MOST SECURE EMAIL in the world
Interview with Hanna from Tuta Mail, the most secure email provider in the world. This is no sponsored, so support my work here: https://www.patreon.com/theh...YouTube
I spoke to a doctor who switched to a new hospital which had a different patient tracking software.
The hidden scrollbars in the user interface made it so that the doctor nearly forgot to see a patient who's name was not initially viewable in the list.
Had the scrollbar been persistently visible, there would be a clear visual indicator that there were more patients to visit.
Design can be life or death, are you really going to let your hatred of affordances kill someone?
