a mess like this is easily 5 to 10 years ahead of its time
a doberman named Satoshi just walked by and a dude asked to smell the owner’s armpit quintessential sxsw
sorry for being cringe I'm trying to enjoy being alive
it took 5+ years of living here but i finally stepped in fire ants!
a “Space Force”, if you will
we need a department of kerning
this youtube “moment of zen” is incompatible with my household

I really liked this guide to Z3 in Rust. Great tutorial for how to check constraints or logic programming in Rust. asibahi.github.io/thoughts/a-g...

Nix friends: How terrible is this idea? I added `builtins.runWasm` to nix, allowing you to call out to Wasm. The Wasm is reset every time, so the functions remain pure. This gives you a (performant?) escape hatch for things that Nix is missing. E.g parsing YAML (here: via Rust)
Thought experiment: Most programming languages were designed in an era where mostly one programmer coded in isolation. If you were designing a language for modern collaborative programming/commenting/etc., what would you change? How would you *modify* existing languages?

I often think back at this video from Derek Sivers: "The first follower transforms a lone nut into a leader." This has been true so many times in my experience. If you haven't watched this video yet, it's well worth your time, it's only 3 minutes. youtu.be/fW8amMCVAJQ
