plrust, which exists on my laptop so far, now supports using external dependencies.
Hang tight y'all. @ZomboDB is about to change the #PostgreSQL landscape (again!) and make it even more accessible to all programmers, including #rustlang programmers!

As you do #AdventOfCode this year - or any year - try to judge your own progress not by how many stars you have, but instead by how many things you learned.

For "reasons" I ended up writing crates.io/crates/enumber today for @rjek. How do I end up doing work on my day off?

Ugh, halfway around my run today and my calves started to threaten cramps. 10km of walk/try-run/nopenope/walk later and I'm home

Finally I played Detroit: Become Human through. And I am massively saddened that in the end my attempt to make choices was entirely derailed by my inability to handle 'Quick Time Events' - I was trying to play a story game, not a twitchy thing. Oh well.

I assume, like all of twitter's less helpful "innovations", tweetdeck will miss out on 'fleet's and/or make them just fit into the normal timeline. Here's hoping I don't accidentally post any though as responses come as DMs I'm told.

Anyone want to contribute to rustdoc? In the @rustlang dev tools meeting we saw that github.com/rust-lang/rust/pu⦠is pretty cool but needs someone with a bit of time on their hands to push it over the finish line.
Comment on the PR if you feel like this is something you wanna do :)
