something i have tried to explain a few times, when people see crashes (panics, asserts, segfaults, whatever) as "bad":

when you have a bug, your program crashes if you're lucky. If you're not lucky, your program keeps running, but it is now a different program than you think it is. That's worse.
“rust isn’t safe because it panics” shut da fuck up rust is safe BECAUSE it panics. instead of, you know. not doing that.

Practice so you're ready.
I had the good fortune once of serving with a man who heard an insult to a woman colleague from the man in leadership.

He said, in his usual calm voice, “You know how you just said (insult)?”

Took a beat.

“Never say that again.”

gotta drill through an external wall. is it morally okay to drop lumps of stone on people below? 100% if the downstairs neighbours are trans girls they'll be like "uwu drop rocks on me queen"

I was trying to figure out SVG measurements for laser cutting 3mm material. It turns out that SVG units are defined as 1/96 inch. This is not ok.

my most woke opinion is probably that all of my other opinions are normal
"my least woke opinion is---"

That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.

Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

the boost in the sense of competence for owning a left-handed drill bit when you need one. here i successfully extracted a cammed-out countersunk screw without damage to the panel, what a mood boost
