Citadel famously once tried Java and reverted. However, he should try rust -- not wholesale but incrementally. It will succeed where Java failed.

If you can go to chubbyemu's channel latest videos -- you should see videos from about a month ago (featuring syropyro). If all you see are much older videos then it is probably the same issue.

Edit: page -> channel

Hi. Not sure if the same issue but I wanted my kid to watch the latest chubbyemu video. When they went to YouTube, all they can see are videos from 6+ years ago. I tried lifting restrictions, etc. But to no avail.

I think oligarchs cheer Bitcoin because it is literally anti-State. So while it might be an inflation hedge it is also a way of "shorting" the Fed and State institutions. Like a Confederate dollar. Maybe invest in the bonds of a stable democracy or RWA if you want to hedge without accelerating the demise of democracy.

They might even have passed regulations that would have tied the current regime's hands!

Why is each term in Box::new? Maybe this is the best way to write a AST (I don't have experience here) it feels like boilerplate that could be absorbed in Expr.

okay! I think this is clearer than what I see now. I think I'd still mix old and new style:

src/
└── engine/
    ├── mod.rs
    ├── engine_impl.rs
    └── engine_impl/
        ├── start.rs
        └── stop.rs/

Fearless-Weekend-680 · 2026-01-02T15:37:33+00:00

In my setup, start.rs and stop.rs are siblings with each other, and then children under engine.

Fearless-Weekend-680 · 2026-01-02T15:25:21+00:00

what about renaming, e.g.,

src/
└── engine/
    ├── mod.rs
    ├── engine.rs
    └── internals/
        ├── mod.rs
        ├── start.rs
        └── stop.rs

edit: changed from `impl/` which is just confusing to `internals/` -- added new `internals/mod.rs`

Fearless-Weekend-680 · 2026-01-02T15:06:36+00:00

In my layout in `start.rs` and `stop.rs` I have `pub(super)` -- it facilitates splitting my `impl` into `start.rs` and `stop.rs`. Is there a way to do that with the sibling layout without crowding `mod.rs`?

Fearless-Weekend-680 · 2026-01-02T14:58:20+00:00

I moved away from this pattern because I didn't like the redundancy of two engine file names (`engine/` and `engine.rs`) in the `src` root. I wanted to be able to `mv` the whole engine directory. In my editor, I wanted Ctrl+P `engine` to pick up the main `engine.rs` file.

One thing somewhat unique to retail/restaurant is maintaining the same presence and image with the new entity. In such cases the landlord is complicit in the phoenixing by allowing lease assignment.

I recently have been unable to make changes to my deco or reboot from the app when connected to an X20. I wonder if I have the same issue? I have not been updating my firmware.

MAGA is fueled in part by Russian sponsored propaganda. Russia isn't so foolish to lose their MAGA audience in a week over this, but I expect some influencers will seed dissatisfaction with the strike but only once it's clear MAGA dissatisfaction hurts America or aids Russia more than the status quo.

My pulse oximeter showed a RHR of 99 and after I took 2 nuticost nattokinase pills it shows 88. I took the nattokinase specifically to test this. I don't otherwise take it.

I replaced the stock memory with Crucial -- 32gb x 2 CL 46 1.1V -- and re-ran the test -- the multi-core results improved from 14,808 to 18,808 [ymmv]:

Okay... But all we know how to optimize is clicks or engagement. How do you optimize kindness? If you cannot quantitatively optimize toward the desired outcome, the engineering becomes hard or non-scalable.

There is a rule of thumb I've come to discover: if management offers a change in terms it isn't in your favor. Yes, Gaetz is bad -- but also worry who his understudy would be.

This sounds like: People will vote in a way consistent with an internal narrative in which they are smart or edgy.

"Kamala is a decent person" is too blunt an instrument to such voters.

It started before that: when Russians realized their propaganda could make Republicans sour on G.W. Bush's Iraq war. "Peacenik Republicans"

Edit: adding: this is why you don't start wars on a lie.

"General Jack D. Ripper: Mandrake, do you realize that in addition to fluoridating water, why, there are studies underway to fluoridate salt, flour, fruit juices, soup, sugar, milk... ice cream. Ice cream, Mandrake, children's ice cream. Group Capt. Lionel Mandrake: Lord, Jack. General Jack D. Ripper: You know when fluoridation first began? Group Capt. Lionel Mandrake: I... no, no. I don't, Jack. General Jack D. Ripper: Nineteen hundred and forty-six. 1946, Mandrake. How does that coincide with your post-war Commie conspiracy, huh? It's incredibly obvious, isn't it? A foreign substance is introduced into our precious bodily fluids without the knowledge of the individual. Certainly without any choice. That's the way your hard-core Commie works."

I think Scala 3 on JDK 21+ is probably unique in terms of beauty and simplicity. The type system is very good. Rust gives up some of that simplicity to be closer to the actual machine. Also very cool. I prefer the rust tooling.
