However, if you're ever interested in setting up a Manchester Rust group, let me know :D
Fortunately I've managed to acquire a ticket, so please offer it on to others. Thank you for thinking of me!

Yeah. I'm still running a risk hacking this late at night; but I'm on a roll :D

Marmite XO is the best. I already submitted my patch to `rustdoc` and am working on a nice deprecation patch for `rustup` :D
I just had two crumpets slathered in butter and Marmite XO -- what better fuel for hacking on rustdoc? #rustlang

My most embarrassing mistakes as a programmer: * I didn't ask for help * I was afraid of what others would think * I didn't follow through on a promise * I didn't step up and take responsibility * I avoided conflict My biggest mistakes had nothing to do with programming.

As someone whose blog nominally allows comments -- I spend more time dealing with spam than anything useful. Just invite interaction on twitter/discord or via email.

I used to drink quite a bit; but over the past 20 years I have reached a point of drinking maybe one or two beers a year. I don't feel like I'm missing out.
We only have the one, and it's in the bedroom so we can gross out the eavesdroppers.

I used to adore bouldering, and climbing on rocks at the coast. I have envy.

Yers, it is a giant pile of fail. I do my best to only look stuff up on it via google image search; otherwise it annoys me into leaving it immediately.

it's one of my favourite hidden gems. I have a slice about it in the rust training I deliver at work. So useful!
