Both. It allowed/forced me to explicitly handle edge cases I wasn’t thinking about. That means the error doesn’t happen at run time, but at compile time (or while writing!) so technically speaking the errors didn’t go away, they moved to in my face rather than “maybe in the future.”

Most of the time the remedy was to explicitly catch whatever happened and nicely explain what happened, vs looking at empty production logs because logging is turned down.

It’s certainly a preference, but for me, I’d rather argue with the compiler all day long and push a bulletproof release than quickly ship something I thought was good and be embarrassed.

Anecdotally I converted a python app to rust and suddenly had no more runtime errors. It’s utter bliss.

Saw a lot of criticism of this song harping on how generic and simple the riff is. And I agreed, it’s kind of Kublai Khan’s schtick. But they’re capable of more interesting rhythms, and I realized it was definitely an intentionally “low tech” rhythm. Brought me back around.

Forget those complex “classic” knots and try the “Van Wijk” knot. It couldn’t be easier, you only move the fat end of the tie and wrap it around the skinny end 2-4 times before pulling the fat end through the wraps. So fast, impossible to forget, and looks classy while being distinct.

I had to rewind three times cause I swore I kept missing something important that made that significant or something. Needless to say I was glued to the screen until the credits rolled.

I’ve been stuck in Winter’s Heart for months, maybe even approaching a year now. I might finish it by the time i have grandkids.

FWIW Ryobi’s battery has been the same format since the 90s which removed any doubt I had about continuing to buy the brand.

Awesome update.

On iOS, after adding lemmy.ml to the homescreen as a PWA from Safari, I can't log in because the keyboard doesn't pop up when tapping the username or password fields.
