this betty white scene from golden girls still never fails to make me happy, 30+ years later. betty improvised most of the story and bea and rue couldnโt help but lose their composure and slip out of character. RIP to a comedy queen.

After all that, I deserve a beer. I shall ring in the new year with a Northern Monk Death Star Ep.II - Mmmm
As such, for everyone on here - I hope 2022 is a good year for you. Better than 2021 at least. *hugs* and see you on the flip side.

Today I learned that when you start to select large numbers of recipients for a mass SMS, android starts to slow down a lot. Selecting the last 10 of my 80+ mass text each took four or give seconds. Wow. Someone has a seriously badly scaling algorithm in there somewhere.

IME anything which is "modern devops" (e.g. docker, docker-compose, kubernetes, and all the related technologies) is "easy once you know how" and a total and utter nightmare to get into if you're not used to it and just need to dip in for a moment to sort something out. *hugs*

Fair enough. Does Java do named arguments? e.g. can you get something like new ModelKey(generating: true, collecting: false, actuallyGenerating: false, modelState: null) ?
1
the shorthand record definition is nice. Does it imply a nasty constructor though, or do you get typestate builders for free? Eg. ModelData.new().generating().actuallyGenerating()

the record is fine. Its the function arguments which I find uncomfortable. Sequences of true/false withno surrounding semantics hurt my brain.

oh well. That is painful for you, but I guess if the scope is limited then you've got the best you can have.

Functions/constructors/whatever which take a number of booleans greater than one upset me. Does this record make sense if something is false, X, true, X ? If not, then perhaps a enumeration of not/can/is generating would be better?

Any retail or other place that displayed this would have my business.

It's easy to make groups into villains, but we'll get nowhere by vilifying groups. The #rustlang community cannot make progress by being exclusionary. We will *regress* by indulging in the same levels of hate that others throw. The feelings are valid; the actions are not.

After a year of recovery / eating my anxiety and stress, I am envious of your ability to run. Still, my hope is to do the equivalent next year once more. Argh bad foot, argh stress, argh anxiety.
