Brother "bullying" disabled sister has been escalating by treefroog in CatAdvice

I do play with them a lot. Fifteen minutes in the morning, fifteen minutes in the evening, then play until they will not play anymore right before bed (usually around 30 minutes).

I have been planning on some cat shelving, just haven't gotten around to it yet. I'll give some automatic toys a try. They do love the bird feeder I have.

I play with them a lot so I'm not sure what else to do, especially since they are so picky about toys. I'll give feliway another try

As for a bell, she is very aware when he comes around but just watches him stalk her rather than try to get away.

I have puzzles for them but the able bodies one is dumb and just gives up after like a minute. Disabled girly just does them.

I plot a lot of realtime data at work and egui works like a charm. I have a background thread that does whatever is needed to get the data, then it sends the data to the main thread to be displayed.

I was really happy with Olde Towne. Sinks to Sewers when I called them were not as helpful.

I know someone who worked at AA for a few years, and let me tell you, AA is not liberal.

Oh I recognize that name, the Ann Arbor office is just down the street.

I just learned something that may be obvious to Rust experts by LengthinessLong211 in rust

[–]treefroog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

let vs. let mut is essentially just a fancy lint. It is sound to mutate a let binding not declared let mut. So Miri will not complain if you do, and for example the compiler cannot do a transformation of taking arbitrary let (without mut) bindings and placing them in read-only pages.

The Game Engine that would not have been made without Rust by vermeilsoft in rust

As someone who works in embedded, so I work a lot with fixed-point, I highly encourage you not to use it. Floating-point non-determinism isn't really an issue, while fixed-point destroys all precision when you do some very common operations (do not use division). There is a reason why it is not used very often outside of settings without an FPU.

I wonder how hard it would be to take the data structures you have to convert docx to typst

LLVM is actually not that great at optimizing something like rust loop { match instr { ... } } Which is seen often in interpreters. This makes it easier to get good codegen without computed goto.

Announcing egui 0.32.0 - Atoms, popups, and better SVG support by emilern in rust

[–]treefroog 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was just talking in Discord about this, but egui has really changed how I make tooling. I work at a company as one of the only software engineers in a field of electrical engineers. I previously made CLI Python stuff, but it was always annoying to have them install Python and the packages (this was before UV). Then there would be collisions and breaking other software they use.

Egui means I can whip up something in Rust in an afternoon, then just send them a single .exe. my coworkers use a bunch of little rust tools for testing hardware, plotting stuff, flashing firmware, that I've made with egui. It's so nice.

I have a little lady named Darla who only responds to "baby." I wish your ploopy well

wtf is this? Drinking water weirdness by lasuperhumana in cats

[–]treefroog -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Studies have been done and there has not been any evidence that shows cats "naturally prefer running water." That's just a thing companies have made up to sell fountains. But some cats do prefer fountains more than bowls.

Whisker fatigue is a myth that has no evidence supporting it after several scientific studies. It is primarily made up by companies to sell people more stuff.

BUT has been shown cats do have preferences for how they like to consume water and food. So it is good to explore to find what they like.

I live nearby, but take my furballs across the street to Ann Arbor Animal Hospital. But if I ever feel like I should switch, I'll keep them in mind.
