Here's a strange situation:

thousands of #Rust developers use #bacon, #broot, #dysk, or #lazy-regex every single day — tools I wrote, maintain, and improve for free.

Their companies, though? None of them want to hire their author.

If you use my tools at work and your company does #Rust, I'd really appreciate a hand landing a job or freelance mission. A boost goes a long way. 🙏🦀

Waterval wat baie keer 'n drup is, tuimel sterk na benede in Grootkloof.

EN: Waterfall that many times are just a drip, cascades down strongly in Grootkloof.

Standing at the top of Madonna pass. The Madonna and her Worshippers are the set of fluted basalt columns emerging from from the pass.

Further back are two prominent peaks known as the Mnweni Needles. In the distance there are some rounded peaks known as the Puddings.

To the right of the Needles a plateau is visble. The big, prominent column behind the plateau is called Mponjwane. It is connected via small neck quite some scramble down from the main escarpment. It is a classic rock climb on basalt rock.

Some smoke arises from the steep edges about one third down. This is probably due to a lightning strike igniting dry brush.

I had not noticed that there was a new edition of "The Linux Command Line" until today.

If you use Linux, and perhaps especially if you are new to Linux, and want to get to grips with command line / terminal usage, it is well worth dipping into this free (CC BY-NC-ND) tome:
