Also, I get like 15 ideas a day and want to do experiments on them. I've always been this way with code. Now, instead of putting ideas in a document I may never get to, I can ask a program to do an assessment I can review later. I don't lose ideas to the ether. Also... kinda nice?

And yes, I do have a little script I use to calculate this, mostly because I want to see codebase composition over time. It's not a real metric of quality, of course. `cargo xtask code-stats`

I have about 37k lines of functional code and about 26k lines of test and benchmark code. While I did some pretty excellent low-level work (IIDSSM), what the hell was I doing with error and config types? What a mess. But at least my proxy is high-performance. 🤦 Cue 2342 hours of refactoring.

Me to me, about my Rust project:

Ah, but it is nice to do this. This is *clean*. I should pick up the clothes off the chair for myself once in a while.

I should be a good citizen and raise issues in their codebases (and maybe PRs). My todo list is pretty long right now, honestly. Maybe I'll publish my stuff first so I can reference the implementation.

I will say... for all the MCP gateways out there... proxying from HTTP to a subprocess communicating via stdio isn't as straightforward as it seems. It's incredibly easy to have resource and security leaks. Pooling, lifetime tracking, aggressive cleanup, bounded channel usage. It's basically a PaaS.

Well, Drop can't be async, so you can't await on the shutdown of whatever you're pooling unless you block, but you can spawn cleanup tasks. Which means managing race conditions and ensuring fairness. I could also *not* do this and just mark with Drop and sweep with an explicit close() call. But hey.

When it comes time to search for code, like when you need to debug an outage, having really clean module design can help you get there in no time. It's a pain to have to refactor when your mental model evolves, but it's worth it to me.

DC never resonated with me as a kid. Marvel better connected with me. But some of these newer DC runs are incredible.

I mean, keep reading Asimov... it's great sci-fi... but I don't think we're anywhere close to the Robot Wars.

Definitely the best on-screen depiction of Sue Storm. The entire birth sequence was some of the best filmmaking Marvel has produced.
