a friend asked me about concurrency in Rust and honest to god, I had never done it before, I only just now looked at the Rust manual, and I managed to write something perfectly correct and safe and really simple, first try

Full VLA control, on a scope-based basis. Goddamn I'm so good at designing inside of these languages.

"I'm sorry Dave, I'm afraid I can't do that."

Anyone know if anywhere sells PLA filament in that "old computer beige" colour?

Q: Why did digital design engineers come late to work?

A: Low bus speed and insufficient timing margin.

Having a union in this moment allowed us to bring Epic Games to the table and negotiate over the terms of severance. We successfully challenged the status quo and demanded a more just and fair agreement for our laid-off comrades. We are hopeful that it will allow those workers more security in these frustrating times.
