Harsh ShandilyaI can't remember the last time I had to deal with an OpenSSL dependency in a project and did not despise it. I've started moving all my #RustLang projects from libgit2 to gitoxide more for getting rid of OpenSSL than for the actual niceties it brings

Robert Thau@baadc0de @Sheril Well... the term "bug" for a glitch in wiring goes at least back to Edison (who may have coined it; his usage is well attested from the early 1870s). The phrasing "first *actual* bug" in the Harvard lab logbook is itself a testimonial to earlier usage. https://spectrum.ieee.org/did-you-know-edison-coined-the-term-bug
Rhys@Henrysbridge In Welsh, there are specific adjectives for feminine and plural nouns - in particular colous and sizes (e.g. Cardiff Blues are Y Gleision, not Y Glas)
Bara implies plural, so if you've got a sign up, i'd say 'bara brith bychain' would be more grammatically correct, but 'bara brith bach' is probably more natural and covers a single one.
'torth' (loaf) on the other hand is a feminine noun, so a small bb loaf would be 'torth bara brith fechan'
Kornel@juliobiason Iterators aren't async, and next() has no choice but block.
You might have an iterator returning Futures, but that's just passing objects through a sync iterator anyway.
There's Stream type (in the futures crate) for proper async iteration, which has async-supporting equivalents.

Cool blog from the Goog about lessons learned when switching to #Rust: https://opensource.googleblog.com/2023/06/rust-fact-vs-fiction-5-insights-from-googles-rust-journey-2022.html
Katerina MarchánEveryone who told me baby poops don’t smell was so terribly terribly wrong.
Also I knew babies could occasionally go bathroom in the middle of changing, but I never expected it to happen this often, and this violently.
Anyway I hope I didn’t wake up the neighbors screaming at the top of my lungs at 2:30am. But at least the wall has been properly disinfected.
terhechteI've decided to open source Ebou, the cross platform Mastodon Desktop Client.
You can find the repository here:
https://github.com/terhechte/Ebou
It also supports Windows, although this is beta and Windows binaries are not included yet (you'll have to compile it yourself). Attached is a Windows screenshot. Linux should be easy to support, too.
I'm open sourcing it because I think there's great value in a high quality cross platform Mastodon desktop client and I can't pull this off alone.
Will people stop comparing Zig's `comptime` to Rust's `macros`? They are not the same!
Sure, there is some overlap, but `comptime` can do things `macros` can't do (such as really nice assertion checks), and `macros` can do things that `comptime` can't do (such as code generation).
Excellent video on how to write #rust derive macros. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XY0yR6IPbhw
