tl;dr, in Rust 1.32.0, running

```
fn main() {
let x = 5;

dbg!(x);
}
```

prints:

[src/main.rs:4] x = 5

Rust 1.32 is here and has what looks like a really cool macro called `dbg`

As I learn to sew as an adult, four things come together to irk me:

- I was, through society and directly, not taught anything coded as feminine;
- sewing, and all crafting, is coded as feminine;
- all things coded as feminine, including crafting, is considered lessor;
- living sustainability and outside of consumerism is, often, a form of crafting.

I see what we did there, and I won't stand for it!

i needed to make a single colour design for a screenprinting workshop and somehow it manage to go off the rails

The advice against "burnout pace" rarely mentions that how that pace can change as you age. That pace for a 20-year-old is different than for a 40-year-old. It's easy to fall into the trap of assessing your current pace against your younger self.

X: I'm just going to untar java8 on the prod machine. Where do you want it?
Y: anywhere is good.
Me: Well, it's for our developers, /dev seems appropriate.

Corollary for users everywhere:

If you want to stop using a service, *always* invalidate every possible detail you can from your account, even if the service lets you delete the account.

If you allow your website users to delete their account and don't really delete their data, maybe don't allow a registration with the same e-mail address to inherit the old user data – *and if you do* maybe don't let them access anything before they confirm their e-mail address.

'Cause I was just shown a website that lets you access all the user data if you know the e-mail address used to register an account that was deleted in the meantime.
And we figured this out in a matter of minutes.

"i use linux as my operating system," i state proudly to the unkempt, bearded man. he swivels around in his desk chair with a devilish gleam in his eyes, ready to mansplain with extreme precision.
"actually," he says with a grin, "linux is just the kernel. you use GNU+linux."
i don't miss a beat and reply with a smirk, "i use alpine, a distro that doesn't include the GNU coreutils, or any other GNU code. it's linux, but it's not GNU+linux."

the smile quickly drops from the man's face. his body begins convulsing and he foams at the mouth as he drop to the floor with a sickly thud. as he writhes around he screams "I-IT WAS COMPILED WITH GCC! THAT MEANS IT'S STILL GNU!"
coolly, i reply "if windows was compiled with gcc, would that make it GNU?" i interrupt his response with "and work is being made on the kernel to make it more compiler-agnostic. even if you were correct, you won't be for long."

with a sickly wheeze, the last of the man's life is ejected from his body. he lies on the floor, cold and limp. i've womansplained him to death.

The book that changed how I negotiate. It converts introversion and an unwillingness to stand up for yourself into an asset.

🐦 📣 HELLO! there was once a joke about interviewing prominent tooters to learn the nuance of their approach and technique.

one thing lead to another, i slipped on a banana peel, and now you can listen to a whole ding-dang interview i did with @selontheweb to enter the mind of a true Mastodon power-poster.

Daily reminder that the subreddit for the hilariously named "Proud Boys" nazi group was raided and successfully entirely taken over by transmasculine and non-binary resistance, who now use /r/proudboys to post about how proud they are to be boys.
