This is great—the kind of not-glamorous, low-level, long-timer work that is essential for making Rust healthy in the long term. We need a lot more of this kind of investment to make it easy to build great debugging tools (the biggest gap in the ecosystem IMO!).

Okay Fedi, regarding the rules bot.
Should I keep it as is, or return to just text?
Created a NFSv4 jail in Bastille following 
@vermaden tutorial and added SAMBA.

what's a header?
It's like every single person who looked at the Cloudflare blog post read exactly zero words of it, scrolled down 20 screens to the code sample, and drew the same stupid conclusion. I don't claim Rust's error handling story is the best, but blaming unwrap() is beyond silly.
This is a situation where
Reasonable lessons to learn are:
Bad configuration is a recurring cause of these cloud system outages. It is absolutely true that Rust is not immune. But grepping for unwrap in your code is kind of a dumb response to this news, and retroactively never having unwrap wouldn't have made Rust more reliable. You might as well pass a law banning unpleasant surprises. We have to be smarter than that and look for ways to engineer better error handling.
Oh, to live in Germany. This would be such an impactful job. #OpenSource #FreeSoftware #FOSS

I haven't seen this variation of XKCD 2347 yet. Received from a friend, source unknown.
This week we show how to make use of a feature of SQLiteData that we added thanks to feedback from the community. When we detect an iCloud account has logged out we can ask the user what they want to do with their local data.
Just a few lines of code:
