Once upon a time, bottom bedsheets had the elastic around JUST the corners. You could always find the corners when making the bed. But now, they are designed to have elastic around the entire sheet? I can never find the "corner". And when I do it's usually a wrong one. Plus they don't fold as neatly.

@royal 20+ years or so ago I was a C & assembly guy handling massive telcoms data sets and line speeds, trying on average to keep up with a bunch of special processing. At the time, C++ was just some add-on libraries for C that made prototyping awesome, but slowed down things too much to deploy. #thegoodoldays :-)

Rust is definitely the sexy thing -- haven't tried it myself as I haven't been in the *must go faster* game for a while, more needing the higher order functions and proven libraries, etc. Definitely curious how it plays out for you on the data analysis front!

Pleased to meet you, BTW :-) // Happy Friday!

Timelapse Of A Man Building A Log Cabin From Scratch With No Power Tools

This is a timelapse video of Canadian outdoorsman Shawn James building himself a log cabin from scratch (like, cutting down the trees and everything), entirely without power tools, just like they used to do in the good ol' days....
