I had the opportunity to play guitar in the backing band at a friends' vocal school's anniversary celebration concert.

One of the cooler moments was sharing the stage with this girl performing a fantastic cover version of "Hallelujah"!

#rustlang hot take: We should rename .unwrap() to .or_panic(). (And .expect() to .or_panic_with().) "Unwrap" is a terrible name for the panicking function, especially since we also have things like .unwrap_or() and .unwrap_or_default() which never panic.

Apparently Cloudflare was taken down by a single `Result::unwrap` in their #Rust code

Cloudflare suffered a service outage on November 18, 2025. The outage was triggered by a bug in generation logic for a Bot Management feature file causing many Cloudflare services to be affected.

are there any huge high quality photo texture packs still out there?

looking for a huge city/park texture pack like those oldschool texture CDs so I don't need to gather textures one by one using some shitty web interface

also, all the asset stores appear to be polluted by overprocessed and procedurally generated slop, hardly any quality stuff, especially anything x-tiling (seamless in one direction only)

every time I'm telling a fellow dev how I solved a problem I fully expect them to say something like "oh you could have just used a balanced Von Gloober tree with a walking cheetah algorithm" making my solution look like the equivalent of a child eating crayons.

Your periodic reminder that most CLI password prompts accept Ctrl+U to fully clear input so you can try again. Leave that backspace key alone.

I don't post a lot of work stuff here, but today we released a collection of cinematic sounds by Noise Dept, and they did some really cool stuff. Sounds amazing.

you know when I've learned something new that I'm afraid to forget when a line of code is preceded by ten lines of comments.
