My tiny, fanless low-power home server just hit a year of uptime 🎉
It runs LAMP, NextCloud, Jitsi and a bunch of other services and has essentially been running my life for the past 15 years.

I think it's worth linking this piece as well, which I find equally powerful.

From the Turing Institute's Twitter feed. Affecting stuff.
Alan Turing, born on this day in 1912, was a pioneering mathematician, computer scientist, philosopher, code-breaker and icon of the 20th century. We asked the Institute community what Alan Turing means to them: https://tinyurl.com/2p9dpfbe

We've been learning about #Rustlang lifetime annotations in our Rust reading group at the #TuringInst. One of my colleagues wrote up this really neat, clear summary for functions. Rust's compile-time checks are fascinating.
