Phew, I might have struggled a *LOT* with yesterday's #adventofcode but at least I know how to wrangle a network of intcode VMs with relative ease. Timesliced computing FTW!

I guess to make that work, we'd need (a) to work out if we're allowed to distribute those fonts, and (b) have a variant of the doc generation which embedded local copies. Which documentation is trying to load remote fonts?

I have stocked my fridge with soft tofu tubes, a bunch of spring onions, some other veg, and I have a bunch of other bits ready for tomorrow's Kimchi Tofu Stew cooking effort @codethink -- I hope the Codethings bellies are ready.

I bought a pack of pre-cooked pre-peeled because it's less likely to burn my fingers -- but you are *quite right* -- just off the fire (or out of the oven) is best.
Oh I am very pleased indeed. So far I'm managing to do each day on the day, though I got to cheat for a few days when I was in SF :-D
Today's #adventofcode really kicked my arse. @ericwastl writes some fiendish puzzles from time to time. This one takes way too long for my solution to run (3+ seconds) so I'm going to have to get my optimisation hat on.

some languages model open slices differently to fixed length slices. Eg in rust the difference between [T] and [T; n] but this isn't used often and is rarely properly useful since indices are usually either zero or some variable which can't be compile-time checked anyway.

today in "fucky things your CPU might do to fuck up your crypto": Intel SA-00219 is a bug where an integrated GPU has access to the first two DWORDs in cache lines so apparently you have to 8-byte align and allocate 8 bytes extra for garbage before any cryptographic secrets

Time to break out the macro_rules!()
return eugh!(r);
where eugh!(expr) => match expr { v @ Ok(_) => v, Err(e) => Err(e.into()) }
Or the .map_err(Into::into) I suppose.
Such sadness.

Soon they'll be able to get rid of those pesky european consumer protections though. All hail discount Trump.

it would be a security nightmare to generalise automation for that kind of thing. So yeah, readmes or scripts in repos.
