13:30 <tougenkyou> i might give in to the temptation to learn rust
13:30 <tougenkyou> three passable webshit frameworks in the last ~5 years with "new" webshit like websocket, SNI, etc since it's first release, meanwhile cpp barely even has a maintained one if you don't count CGI
13:30 <tougenkyou> serde seems pretty OP compared to like... protobuf...
13:30 <tougenkyou> attributes seem very OP compared to say python's decorators which can only deal with functions
13:30 <tougenkyou> less unpredictable shit like iterator invalidation

This very poignant and extremely eloquent suicide note https://old.reddit.com/r/UnresolvedMysteries/comments/yr2vd5/possibly_the_saddest_entry_on_the_doe_network/?sort=confidence

Circumstances of Discovery

A couple driving through the woods on a farm road between Highway 23 and the Mississippi River, found the body of the decedent hanging from a limb of a persimmon tree, a bedsheet tied around his neck.

Against the tree was a jar full of note paper. Inside was a suicide note addressed to his parents:

"Mom and Dad,

You have provided be excellent advantages and privileges and experiences. I am extremely grateful for all of your sacrifices, time and support. I am now repaying you with an arrogant act. In this light, I do see it as criminal. I can only hope that you see that it was me who caused it.

I never did develop into a real person and I cannot tolerate the false and empty existence I have created.

It is best if I cease to live, quietly, than risk that later I will break and shatter by violence or linger years under care. I implore you to see a psychiatrist in order that you might understand my death and my life. Ask thoroughly about what I was and you will see that it is not tragic that I am gone but more natural than if I continued.

I was born with a definite pervasive melancholy. What frustrated me most in the last year was that I had built no ties to family or friends. There was nothing of lasting worth and value. I led a detached existence and I was a parody of a person-literally and figuratively. I didn't tell jokes-I was a joke.

I am a bomb of frustration and should never marry or have children. It is safest to defuse the bomb harmlessly now. I do not want to bother with being a "reformed and cured" person limping through life. I am this self-centered.

I am no longer interested in the world and know that it is not interested in me. When you stop growing you are dead. I stopped growing long ago."

The decedent cited the writing of Emile Durkheim, a philosopher and psychologist. He also added this aside to authorities:

You are bound to preserve domestic peace and order. If you pursue who I was (and spend hundreds of dollars) you will accomplish little. There are no legal consequences of my death or any kind of entanglements. All that can happen is that you will shatter the domestic peace and order of two innocent lives. Do not deprive them of the hope that their "missing" son will return. Let me be, let it be as if I wasn't ever here. Simply cremate me as John Doe."

There are no surviving reports/records from either the Plaquemines Parish Sheriff's Office or Coroner's Office. At the time of discovery, the decedent's fingerprints had been circulated to police across the country.

https://pilleater.substack.com/p/confessions-of-an-asiansexual is a strange example of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cultural_cringe . Of course there is a term for that...

I hope https://github.com/11ty/eleventy/discussions/2309 becomes a thing. Failing that, i am told that gemtext is a subset of markdown.

Python does not support tail recursion optimization because the dictator said so. Not even pypy3 does.

If you want to auto-optimize tail calls you have to do some nasty stack introspection.
