New career path: Telling everyone that I use generative AI for everything (and then just half-assing it with my own brain) so people I don’t respect throw piles of money at me and are cool with the final product being bad.

not to wade in on the rust mutex poisoning thing but learning what this is has made me go and spot a potential bug in my own js code that uses some mutex/rwlock-like things
anyway yeah, continuing to allow access to a resource after something has partially executed a critical section seems... bad

most code handles mutex poisoning by panicking, which is correct.
Mutex poisoning was a good idea, but in practice it has created more harm than good. Most code is not handling poisoning at all and it is also almost impossible to handle correctly.
