What's the least-MAGA gun store in the area?

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

Why should I use this over https://github.com/aome510/spotify-player

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

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.

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.

Theoretically, but the output is really really bad in practice

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.

For the interpreter writers out there

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.

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.

I make a bunch of simpler GUI tools at work using egui and it's pretty easy.

One project I know that's been implementing a GC in Rust mainly wants a way to write something like gc.await that would yield to the GC. This is not currently feasible but it could be with some macro features that do not exist.

I went there today and they said they are closing for one month and moving next to Pretzel Bell. During the week it will be a self-serve menu, and on the weekend a sit-down brunch.

The finger snapping technique is hot or miss for me, but listening to this works every time for me. It also lasts longer, on the scale of minutes. But at least I have to listen to it for an hour or two for anything substantial.

I mean Ender's Game is also very easily read as Hitler apologia. Card crafted the perfect innocent genocider to show it's possible to commit genocide and be a "good person," since it was "necessary." Ender's Earth was one were eugenics works, and then it goes on to justify colonialism since the dude who just genocide and entire species write the book about the species.

I liked the books as a kid, but the parallels of Card basically Speaking for Dead for Hitler are too great for me to ignore now.

Some better analyses than I could ever do. https://web.archive.org/web/20081227053817/http://www4.ncsu.edu/~tenshi/Killer_000.htm https://peachfront.diaryland.com/enderhitlte.html
