No obvious ICE presence in my corner of Rogers Park tonight. No helicopters, or SUVs pulling up and grabbing people off the street. Just kids and families out trick-or-treating.

If dispatching on enum variants in #Rust bad practice? It seems like there's not an idiomatic way to treat enum variants as their own types. I don't want to `std::mem::discriminant`!

There’s fine lines between “cringe” and “earnest” and “popular”. As Tris @noboilerplate.namtao.com.ap.brid.gy says: popularity matters. Loved participating in the most popular display of resistance yet here in Boston.

It is alarming that the Trump Admin & rogue ICE agents would abduct a 13-year-old child from Everett, transport him to a facility over 500 miles away & reportedly subject him to harrowing conditions.

They must stop violating our constitutional rights.

The war on rainbow crosswalks has come to Texas.

After DeSantis cracked down and tore up rainbow crosswalks across Florida, the community has resisted in protest.

Now, Abbott is doing the same in Texas, seemingly at the direction of Libs of Tiktok.

Question for the #rustlang crowd:

Anyone know of a formal CS textbook that teaches Data Structures and Algorithms in Rust?

What about a Graph Algorithms one?

Would appreciate a signal boost

I read this part of the Klein article and asked myself, “hm, I wonder what CK said about the 2020 election? Did he ever acknowledge that Biden won?” The answer, unsurprisingly, is no.

Might have found a new favorite bar shopping downtown with Casey today: Bukowski Tavern near the Prudential Center. I’d give 5 stars! Some other Joe apparently disagrees.

A Florida court detained a US Citizen for being an "illegal immigrant." He showed the court proof of citizenship. The court agreed—& held him anyway.

I criticized the ruling online & a Florida judge responded by trying to strip me of my law license. I fought back www.qasimrashid.com/p/a-florida-...

it really is interesting that they recognize it isn't politically possible to claim the US as a specifically anglo-saxon country and thus have to retroactively include groups of european immigrants — seen, at the time, as interlopers — as "white" people entitled to the same claim on national origins
