I've written maybe as much as 100,000 lines of #rust and I'm starting to get the hang of it I think.

Congratulations to all the Democratic candidates who won tonight. It’s a reminder that when we come together around strong, forward-looking leaders who care about the issues that matter, we can win. We’ve still got plenty of work to do, but the future looks a little bit brighter.

I've heard multiple people say that Rust makes you a better programmer in other programming languages. And I don't think that's true, it makes me an angrier programmer in other programming languages.

I have a hard time understanding why people wait until the last day to vote.

It's just so much better to get it done earlier.

With the length of some of the episodes in season 4 of Stranger Things, I think season 5 will be just one episode but 62 hours long.

Whenever I wrote something clever, it comes back to bite me in the end. Dumb and simple code always wins.

The funny thing about the invention of the wheel is the guy who invented it died penniless. It wasn't until much much later that pennies were invented

Reddit sends an email once a day with some links in it. If I try to click on any link in it from my phone I get an error like this. Works fine from a real computer. WTF Reddit.
