Sadly, as is always the way, we found a small regression after the release. This time it was irritating enough that we rolled back while we bake the fix. Sorry for the pain everyone, we'll have 1.24.1 when we're sure the fix is good.

A regression was found in the Rustup 1.24.0 release and we rolled back to 1.23.1. Running `rustup self update` will roll you back to the previous version. We're sorry for the issue.

We supported toml in the extensionless version in 1.23.0 - that's been there for 6+ months :D

I used to do the absolute bare minimum in kdenlive and even that would take me 2-4 times as long as the final video just to lay the bloody thing out.
I think nixos has properly infected me. On my walk today I pondered a nixos host, running firecracker VMs each running nixos as a container host running nixos built containers. My brain has hit its recursion limit and its stack has toppled.

100% this - I'm going to steal "Captain Planet villain" though as another way to describe this hateful techbro ponzi scheme enabling technology
Cryptocurrency is literally like an eight-year-old's concept of an evil businessman. He just plugs his pollution machine in and gets money for it. It doesn't make anything, it just. Pollutes. And makes money. Like a fucking Captain Planet villain

Any unwrap() should either be an expect() or should have a comment explaining what invariant means it's safe to do. Hopefully your sins are well documented :D

Oooh so tempted to buy a copy for kindle, just to see if I get arrested for owning material trivially purchasable from Amazon too.

I'm sad fr.ex. that google meet dangles 'change your background' at me, but then goes "haha but not on your browser" too.
Replying to @directhex
Yeah that makes sense. I mean the Edge evolution made a lot of sense full-stop. I'm just sad that the Teams app requires I log in (I don't have a team account) and the web interface for calls refuses to work on Firefox (though it works a bit if I tell FF to lie). Web, eh?
Replying to @directhex
Amusingly the only thing Firefox doesn't work well for me for, is MS Teams :D So I have to keep Chrome on my laptop for that :(

There's a reason that, where I work, we all call it 'MISERABLE C' - the standard is basically awful.

My favourite is when our clients who are paying us to do Linux related stuff insist on us using Windows laptops with WSL blocked.

There was talk of banning non-EVs from the city centre, but sadly there are still industries in/near the centre which don't help matters.
