Thank you, London.

I lost my phone on the District line at Earl’s Court today. I hopped the next train and chased my phone - foolishly - all the way to fucking Barking.

I gave up, and headed back to Chelsea. As I got to the gate I had to tell the TfL Underground employee that I lost my phone and couldn’t get in.

This girl asked me if I wanted her to look for my phone. She entered my phone info; made a call and told me she located my phone in Tower Hill.

I doubt whomever found my phone - brand new iPhone13 Pro with a TON of assets on it - will read this… but thank you.

Thank you to whomever turned my phone in.

Thank you to the TFL Underground employees who helped me effortlessly and immediately.

I have never been so grateful for something so out of my control. Losing my phone would put my life into a real spiral.

I just wanted to say thank you. Sincerely.

What are the main differences between a Malinois and a Dutch Shepherd?

LoadingALIAS commented

I’ve always heard the Dutch Shepherds were a LITTLE easier to work with. Less intense. A little more forgiving.

I don’t have any practical experience to say that is true or not, though.

I can say this, unequivocally, either way you’re in for quite the fucking ride.

rust authentication frameworks

LoadingALIAS commented

We don’t have great options here. Auth is no where near as mature as say Typescript. Even the options we have a kind of slipping out of date, IMO.

You can piece it together, but you’re not going to find a complete package that just works.

I have one I’ve built for my open company and I really want to get it open-sourced. I just need to fix ownership and seams, split it out of the monorepo into a new OSS repo. It will be a few weeks.

For now, you gotta piece it together, man.

Benefits of high doses of creatine 15g - 20g

LoadingALIAS commented

I don’t think it’s honestly worth it. I’ve not done a ton of research, but 5-10g seems like the logical limit from a supplement. You’re surely getting some creatine in the food you eat.

I would think you’d poop out anything more? Idk.

I’d focus on the sleep first. Seriously. Even 30 extra minutes a night.

Rust SIMD on the GPU

When I saw this on Twitter I immediately thought - gotta be Vectorware team. Hahah. Sure enough.

Talk about a cracked team.

Flagging unused public library functions??

LoadingALIAS replied to DecisionNerd

The major blocker for my cache work, as well as a handful of other things, is Cargo upstream. I want to contribute to Cargo… I always have, but they’re just too slow to merge for me. It’s been that way for years, too.

I deeply value the quality of code and attention to detail in Cargo. I realize it is mission critical for a HUGE number of teams and they can’t merge just anything. I also understand that most of Cargo’s limitations are hidden behind an architecture built for a world where Rust was different, where it made sense.

I’ve spent like five years in Cargo. I’ve read every line of code. I have alerts for their changelogs and releases… but you cannot convince me that it doesn’t need a clean slate rebuild. It does.

Anyway, I’m close with the cache. The issue is currently proc-macros (sccache just refuses to cache it unless a lib consumes it, which they then treat as a normal —extern) and technically that’s a weaker claim than I’m aiming for. I don’t have the luxury of that kind of thing… I’m trying to break through the ceiling and we’re all so hesitant to try new tools lately. I have to be correct first.

Anyway, sorry to ramble. It’s a passion project. Haha. I’ll keep the thread posted.

Op, have you tried Hawk?
