Ah, the days you notice too late that it's flyable and would only get to the site at sunset.

The great trick of tokio::select! is that all non-completed futures are dropped. So any borrows they had are released, freeing you to take a mutable borrow while handling the one future that completed.

#matrix is a mystery to me. Today all the rooms I've joined are gone. It still knows I joined them, but gives no reasonable way to navigate to them.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Not often that I get #Linux to send a distress signal via my #CapsLock led. It was supposed to suspend.
(Rapidly blinking capslock is the signal for a kernel panic)

Is this research going to be like the ones they did to build the #LobauTumnel anyway? Who needs research to figure out whether it is safer to overtake bikes with 2m distance compared to, say, 30cm?
Von den Erfahrungen mit Mehrzweckstreifen in der Stadt umgelegt: Wer will auf der Freilandstraße von Autofahrenden mit 100 Stundenkilometern und ohne 2 Meter Abstand überholt werden?

Farbe ist keine Infrastruktur!

Please don't write your commit messages or PR descriptions with AI. If you didn't bother writing it I'm not sure I can be bothered reading it.

advice to every Rust organizational decisionmaker out there: shut up, stop making excuses, and take notes from the PSF: bsky.app/profile/pyth...
TLDR; The PSF has made the decision to put our community and our shared diversity, equity, and inclusion values ahead of seeking $1.5M in new revenue. Please read and share. pyfound.blogspot.com/2025/10/NSF-...

Hot take: closures (above a certain fairly low complexity level) kinda suck and elaborating them into an explicit struct with an explicit method usually makes code easier to read. (More so in async world.) Instead, work on reducing the need (over guards), like partial borrowing?
New rust-lang blog post on explicit capture clauses, continuing to document thoughts about ergonomic ref-counting:

TIL about the "trail_visibility = horrible" #osm tag. Definitely sums up a lot of yesterday's hiking ^W non-climbing sections.

The hardest thing about code review is getting people to write great doc comments. They're generally much better at writing great code.

If only more folks listened to #broccoliman this kind of thing wouldn't happen.

Ihr kennt sicher das beliebte Ausflugslokal am Cobenzl. Aber wusstet ihr, dass es uns alle sehr viel Geld gekostet hat? @falter.at und WZ haben im April 2024 über das „Millionengrab am Cobenzl“ berichtet. Nun wissen wir, wie viel es letztendlich gekostet hat. Ein Thread.

If only the media would take some responsibility to explain these things, rather than just copy PR blurbs and quotes.

While I'm all in on complaining about #babler changing his position on the #LobauTunnel, let's not forget that the greens once approved the #StadtStrasse, directly setting this trajectory in motion.

Es ist eine Schande, dass ÖVP, SPÖ und NEOS die lebenswerte Zukunft junger Menschen für „unglaubliche Aufträge in die Bauindustrie, in die Planung, in die Services“ opfern wollen.

4 Jahre nach der Gründung von #LobauBleibt ist der Protest nötiger denn je!
