That feeling of joy when something you've been hacking on finally starts to work after resisting you for hours or even days. Priceless.

Working my way through the Rust by Example book. Cool format allowing to edit and run the example code from the browser directly. Great learning resource that helped a lot clearing up some gray zones of my understanding. Also love the fact that cargo can run example code directly. Ideal place to mess around with some libs and test features during development without the need to carry a full blown binary of sorts. I can see why devs love this language. I certainly develop a serious crush on it.

Back from a long European Road Trip.

Packing for a large Europe trip over the next weeks. Feeling too lazy to go but also excited to make some new discoveries along the way.

Looking into hosting public & fully federated matrix and fediverse services. Anyone got experience with that?

Today I found Sweet Home 3D. GPL licensed house planner. I'm a total zero with 3D anything but this thing got me going in no time. https://www.sweethome3d.com/

Had a lot of brainfog these last few days. When it finally stopped raining I begrudgingly started digging up weeds in the garden ... only to discover that this was just what I needed. The avalanche of thoughts and ideas following was quite refreshing. Love it when the creative open mode hits hard.

Rusts String handling is ... special. At first I was quite perplexed. Rust has a dozen or so ways to represent strings. Seems nuts at first. But then I learned about the problems that Rust tries to solve that way and I got it. Painful but worth it.

Another night without sleep. This time I keept hacking around with Rust. Gotta admit that GPT is a very useful tool to learn a new programming language. Also good for writing all the basic tests. Had plenty of fun writing that lib. Next stop add a little CLI tool using it.

Sat down for a bit of Civ 5 at 8 PM ... stoped at 6AM and felt like an hour. Intense.

Gotta span a LAN cable accross a stretch of open air. At least for some time until we can put it under ground. Does anyone know how they handle UV exposure? Something like a CAT7 or 8 installation cable. Any recoommendations for outdoor installation?

I worked in tech for 15+ years. I wrote code in many languages, touched many systems, solved many problems and gained oodles of experience. And yet I feel like I know nothing at all. Am I alone with that feeling? Is the tech world really such a bottomless pit of knowledge that no matter how much we dive into it there's always an infinite amount of stuff we don't know or can't quite grasp yet?
