Self care is most important. Your focus on self care in your stream was refreshing and helpful since it reminded me to get a screen break and a drink of water. The weather isn't great in the UK at the moment, but any chance you get to go out and get some air and sun, take it.

We wouldn't do that. We might turn up and help you be even more right though :D

This is terrifying Neonicotinoids are banned in EU because of lethal harm to bees, butterflies, birds & other animals This is exactly what we warned Brexit could be used for Ministers needs to rule this out immediately if they’re serious about upholding promises on standards
This is massive, and horrific. @NFUtweets is secretly lobbying the government to allow #neonicotinoid pesticides to be reintroduced after Brexit. It tells its members: "Please refrain from sharing this on social media." On the contrary, please RT. campaigns.nfuonline.com/page…

Thank you Gareth for a very enjoyable evening. I find the process or others learning Rust to be fascinating and I love helping along the way.

I'm having a lovely time watching and helping @GarethHubball with his shambolic bot on twitch.tv/garethhubball - why not join us and shamble along with us?

Having re-read the spec today I'm now tempted to write a crate for it. ARGH I have too many projects already.

Audio books might be your saviour. Though I imagine you've already thought of that.

In fact, let's go ahead and try to do an "Unsafe Chronicles" @rustlang stream on Saturday at 6pm UTC (everytimezone.com/s/86025e61). It'll be a bit different from my other streams β€” more "explainer" than "coding" β€” but will hopefully be interesting nonetheless!
I'm thinking of doing a new (infrequent) Crust of Rust "sub-series" on the many pitfalls of unsafe in @rustlang, where each episode looks at a particular trickiness or gotcha. The first one would likely follow my journey with github.com/jonhoo/rust-evmap…. Does that sound interesting?

One wonders whether 'Boris' or 'Al' will be in that room with Ursula von der Leyen.
So Labour's best hope of remaining united is if Boris fails to secure any kind of deal?

A lot of those in power in the USA don't care that they punch themselves in the balls every day, they just don't like the the idea someone else might punch them in the face once.
