I don't know how to resolve it all either! That's what makes it all super frustrating, and why I find a lot of the hype so depressing.

Progress will still happen. We will still find better ways of doing things. We should just not hollow ourselves out in the process, nor should we automate it.

It was this talk "The human cost of development" by Katharina Fey: www.youtube.com/watch?v=IeDb...

A *lot* of people need to watch it, since it feels a bit prescient with a lot of issues we see today. One of the best talks in that conference and wasn't even about Rust, lmao.

Allow me to trigger you with another one: o11y. The shortened form of observability.

I hate it, because it is also visually close to a11y, and it confuses my brain as a result.

I guess they want that Twitter "flavour". That said, Mastodon still suffers the same issue of polarisation despite having bigger posts, so maybe it's not the char limits, but the very format that is problematic?

Not sure if facet-toml's fault, but 42.0 should be deserialised as a float, not an int. Probably a spec issue, as I hit a similar edge in toml_edit. But I can force it as a value with toml_edit, and then do casting shenanigans to get it to do what I want. (2/2)

I'm not really blaming you, it is understandable. I'm more annoyed at... well... *gestures vaguely at everything*

I would comment that maybe this is perhaps giving the troll a W, but it is also still understandable that you do not want to touch said projects.

Dare I say, they are... tainted? :V

Welp, gotta move to a different crate it seems for my config stuff. Still won't use YAML tho (big ick).

Can folks just calm down a bit? I dun like churn...

The ADC data from the Pico W is a bit noisy, so I'll have to do more processing there to iron it out. But a TUI like this will help me greatly with narrowing down a good approach for detections. At least I know where to find good material on signals processing.

I resent how it is being used and weaponised as a productivity boost. No, we don't need to be doing more for less. If something is worth doing, then it is worth taking the time to do it well. Stop trying to push me to burn out yet again.
